Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Erin and you're watching Expert Village. Today, we're going to be working on how to do a bruise. Take your stipple sponge, dip it in your moisturizer, or whatever. Dip it in your base color first, which would be the burgundy maroon one. Just go over it like so. Remember, don't make a perfect circle or anything because that's not how bruises happen or form. We've covered over the nice swollen area here. Now, take your blue and stipple over that. A little dark area here. Just right there in the middle. Now you're going to just blend like you would the other bruise. Blend out. You can take your teeny tiny brush over here and just put little dots in there if you want to. Little dots here and there. There you go. You have your little bump on your head there."
