"Hi! I'm Sarah Mclellan and we are in New York City. Today on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to apply makeup for stage. The really important thing to make your eyes pop and to kind of add to this very dramatic makeup is a good pair of false eyelashes. You can pick these up even at CVS now a days. The only thing is you really need to kind of take them off and measure them to your eye, and then give them a little bit of a snip to custom them to the fit of your size of your eye. Peel them off very carefully. They're quite delicate these little puppies. Basically, the biggest part of the eyelash is going toward the outside. We're going to measure them. I'm just going to measure. Take just a tiny bit off the edge. I've measured my eyelashes now and I'm just snipping a very small section off the edge. Be careful if you're snipping these too because sometimes you can really damage your eyelashes and you don't want to do that before you start. Make sure you have a really good glue. This is a really surgical adhesive. They're tricky. You'll get used to it."
