"Okay, now that we've washed and cleansed the face, done the toner, and the moisturizer, this is very important especially when you do stage. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for everyday use, but if you're going to be on stage where there's heavy lights and you're going to be sweating, it processes those oils and when the lights hit you, the glow of your face shines and in pictures, it doesn't always look very good. Trust me, it's happened to me many times, and this is exactly what you need. It's called Shine Eliminator. And what it is, it's kind of like, I would describe, a deodorant. A deodorant for your face, which is really interesting, but you need to make sure that you know how to put it on correctly otherwise it's not going to look right on your face, and it's just going to come out in clumpy little balls when you put it on your face. So now that we have the moisturizer nice and set in place, I'm going to go ahead and show you how to use this shine and eliminate shine and you can buy this at most retail places. It's just called Shine Eliminator, which absorbs all of that oil out of your face before you put on foundation, concealer, and anything else that you might powder, put on your face. So, what I do to make it much easier, because my fingers are not the same type of skin as the outside of my hands, go ahead and rub it around. I put quite a lot on, and, this is so important. You don't want to rub it into the face. You want to kind of smooth it out and just pat it on to your face, because if you rub it in, like I said, it's going to cause those clumpy little balls to cluster on your face, and that just won't look very good when you're going to go on stage. So, we go ahead and make sure that it's nice and evenly, especially in those areas that get a lot of shine, like the forehead. Make sure that you get it evenly put on your skin. Get that oil out of there, up on the forehead. And also I would say, probably the chin area and underneath the nose are the areas that cause most people to have a lot of oil. And the last thing you want is an oily face when you have a lot of makeup on."
