Hi! I'm Erin and you're watching Expert Village. Today, we're going to be working on how to do a bruise. Right now, I'm going to do a little example of swollen bruise. Once before like we did, you have to prep your area. I'm going to clean this off right here. This is where we're going to do it. You want to pat that dry. Especially for this, because we're going to use putty. This is theatrical nose and scar wax actually, but it's good. You can take your spatula or you can pull it out with your finger. It's kind of hard to do it because it's a little hard until you start playing with it. Just pull a little piece of it out like so. Just play around with it in your hands. Actually, don't play too much because then the oils from your hands will get on the putty. You can just kind of mold it a little bit of how you want it. We got a dry area. Now we're going to place that putty on the face and we're just going to stick and start rubbing downward. Start blending in. Blend into the forehead. You doing alright Jamie? Okay. Just play with it. Pull the edges of it down. In this clean area it should stick pretty well. If you knock your head, you get these really bad knots on your noggin here. It might cause a little lump. There you go. We got the putty on the forehead now.
