Video Transcripts: MATT CAIL: "Alright next we're going to go back to our black makeup. You may think because you have the eyes, mouth, everything done. Hey we're done. But we're not done yet. We still have some extra details to put in. Starting up here actually in the forehead which we're going to furrow. You see like these nice little wrinkles here? I'm going to put little shades of black in there to be able to then kind of extra emphasize them. This is going to be very subtle. And I'm going to blend the bejeebers out of these guys in just a second. But first just gently trace some of the natural forehead lines most of us are lucky enough to have. And then start going back in there. And again, like lots of the other pieces of it, start smudging. What this is going to do it's going to create some interesting and subtly freaky discolorations on the top of our forehead. And let your brush move. Don't try to make these neat lines. Make it uneven. Smudge it. Make it run into the white. You're going to still have these fleshy areas of the skin. Don't cover those up. I'm going to keep harping on it. We want to make this look really, kind of in some ways, rushed, blotchy and not at all clearly demarcated. Once you have these clear lines are showing up, even with the brow relaxed then they're strong enough. You don't have to worry about them anymore. Otherwise just load up on some more black paint."
