"Hi, this is Eva with Makeup Mania, doing a Goth makeup on Amalia. We've prepped her, skin and we're ready to start matching skin tones. Now, we can go lighter with Goth, so we're going to take a couple of colors and put them on her and kind of see which ones we like the best. This might be a nice color for Amalia all the time, but since this is Goth, we're going to go a little bit lighter. So I'm going to choose this first color. You see, I always use a spatula, and I always use that so I don't put my sponge in the foundation. That way the foundation won't get contaminated. So now I've chosen her color. I'm actually going to add a little bit of blue to it, to give her kind of an edgy, Goth look. So I'm going to take that first color, I'm going to mix it on my palate down here. I'm going to take just a little smidgen of blue down here, just to give her, almost a pale, deathy look. You won't see it; really, it's just going to give it a little bit of an edge onto the makeup so that she doesn't look warm at all. Okay, now I've mixed that special foundation for her. I'm going to apply to her face using my sponge. I'm going to clean it off of my spatula here. I'll usually start at the top of the face and work down. Okay, that's a nice color. Just apply it all over."
