Hello all!
Recently, (as stated in the nude pink lippy post), my indelible gel liner from MADminerals dried up because the bottle wasn't tightly capped for a few weeks. I really love the colour and couldn't bear to throw it away. Moreover, US$8.99 for that mini bottle isn't that cheap, despite the fact that it's staying power and vibrant colour is fan-tast-tic! Nonetheless, it's probably my Holy Grail product for Gel-liners =)
Oh , as I was saying, it dried up really bad, to the extent that when I shook the bottle, the hardened contents could be heard knocking around. I tried googling, without much help from it anyway. It was until I saw michellephan's youtube video on how to maximise the usage of your lipgloss and I thought, maybe we could do the same for dried gel-liners!
Basically, all you need is:
- your dying to be saved GEL eyeliner
- A pot of boiling water.
Just place your gel eyeliner in a cup of boiling water and WAIT for about 10min! That's all you gotta do =) Simple eh! You might not get the original consistency of the eyeliner when it was first purchased initially. But after a couple of 'sauna' sessions, your gel liner will loosen up and start to feel softer and smoother =)
note:
- please cap the gel liner tightly as you wouldn't want the water to enter your product.
- do allow a few minutes before placing the gel liner into the boiling water. You wouldn't want to glass to crack or the plastic cover to melt.
I'll try to get the pics up ASAP. Blogger's being a bitch today.
love,
netteeeee
