"Hi my name is Matt Cail and on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm here today to talk about skeleton makeup. Makeup some times need a little bit of help to get uniform and baby powder is a miracle in a couple for a couple of reasons. 1 it would make this area of white more uniform, secondly it will help prevent it from smearing off. So we are going to start applying this, I recommend applying this just to a older sock preferably a clean on that you no longer need. And what we are going to do is basically rub this together a little bit and then we are going to light very lightly dab this on the face. You do not want a thick application of this but do have a little bit of it and basically you are going to start moving on as soon as the layer looks extra solid behind it. You are going to continue doing this until you have a solid white layer. After that you are going to be able to start on the rest of the skull but make sure you keep lightly tapping with the sock. Don't stop until you cover all the region and at the same time it should not be a abrasives tapping, it should be quiet light as you go back and forth moving from top to bottom is a great way to go.
