New YouTube Vid Up: Skull Makeup Tutorial

OK you guys, I finally did it!  I just posted a two-part tutorial on YouTube that walks you through the process of applying full-face skull makeup.  You don’t need any special materials, just basic black and white makeup, patience, and a steady hand.  This is my first ever video makeup tutorial… and video editing… and web video, ever!  Hope it’s helpful!
