"Hi, my name is Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here today to tell you how to make yourself up as a not so friendly ghost. We're going to take a break for a second from the sheet and focus a bit on our face. Now you might ask, why do we need to focus on our face, I have a sheet on? Well, you have a sheet mostly on, around the eye hole areas which we've cut out, we're going to need to apply makeup in the ocular cavity so that there's no flesh color showing through that sheet. It is not worth to be a ghost and to have very human, very pink flush colored eyes starring through that sheet. So what we're going to do is apply a nice thin layer of white into the ocular cavity, all the way around here. Now, when in doubt go a little bit lighter because it's alright if some of this makeup area is covered by the sheet but what you don't want, you don't want to be moving around throughout the evening and little glimpses of skin peeking through the sheets. That's what you don't want, it'll ruin the affect, so this is a nice little thing you can do to get around it, to not sacrifice the fact just so that you can see. "
