So, I'm going to put some warm water on my face. You do want to use warm water, not cold not hot, just warm. It opens the pores. This is kind of warm. It's good? Okay, so I'm taking the make-up off. Whatever excess there. There's a lot of make-up there. Did all that for nothing. Already to come off! I know! Why did I do it? That's okay. The reverse before and after. It looks good though. It's a more natural look that way. A more natural look with no make-up? Exactly! I like that. A lot of guys like that? Absolutely! The natural look? The natural look.

He's really nice. You're very nice to me Brad. I always am. I know. We also want to pin your hair back because we don't want to get anything in your hair. That is correct, yes. Okay, so you pin your hair back. Alright, now I feel pretty. That looks good. Alright, thank you, I look like a twelve year old. You kind of look like a Latino Pippi Longstocking. Of course, also at this point I would put a smock on you. But, it's okay, this t-shirt is, you can just trash it. You want to wear something that you don't have to worry about getting stuff on. I washed my face with warm water, I put some clips and we're ready to rock and roll."
