Trichilemmoma. Cells are not typically clear, but there are other typically findings including peripheral palisading with reversed polarity, thick basement membrane, and central keratinization without granular cell layer.

Pilar cyst.

For me, the concentric lamellar fibroblast arrangement peripherally (very common in pilar cysts), and the ghost cells centrally (with trace dystrophic calcification) with aberrant, minimal granular layer suggest pilar cyst.
