Mehron Makeup Mixing Liquid | Water Resistant For All Day Wear | Multi-Use Makeup Transformer | Eyeliner Mixing Medium | Clear 4.5 fl oz (133 ml)

I used to use PG to refresh my liquid make up products, and it works, but sometimes it does make the product a bit greasy, leading to less wear time. This stuff is great; I've used it to wet down pressed pots, making my favorite dark shadow into eyeliner, added to powder pigment, also to use as eyeliner, and moistened my gel liner to make it more liquid to spread easier. It helps with that 'just a bit too dry' liner and mascara. I didn't like it added to foundation as some stated they do, but I didn't really buy it for that, so I'm not upset. It makes your powders and pigments lock on... I slept in my eye makeup and the next day it looked just applied.It's also great for when you break one of your shadows and don't want to have to deal with the issue of it being broken causing more fall-out.

If I could give it 10 stars I would!!

Game changer need I say more. I’ve been using this everyday for over a month now . Love it. Get you a mist bottle and you are set.

I was looking for a replacement for my old cake eyeliner sealer and came across this product. I was looking for an alternative to a standard eyeliner pen/pencil to apply my daughter's dance recital. She's 5 years old, has no experience having make up applied, and I have experience applying make up to others for theatrical purposes, but it's been a solid 20 years since that experience.As with most make up thinners or setting liquids, a little goes a long way. The container the Mehron Mixing Liquid comes in is a little inconvenient for mixing an application at a time, especially if you're not wanting to dip your brush in the bottle. I transferred the mixing liquid to a dropper bottle, place a drop on the back of my hand, dip the eyeliner brush in the liquid, then mix in dry eyeliner/eyeshadow powder. This seemed to work well. This liquid is a little thinner than others I've worked with, so less is more or it will run or make a translucent color. The pigment it creates is dark and deep when mixed correctly. It sets reasonably smudge-resistant within a minute or so. It withstood the tired eye-rubbing of a 5 yr old on recital night (no raccoon eyes!), if that gives you an indication of the setting power.TL/DR: The liquid mixes well, but is thinner than I expected. When mixed appropriately, pigments are deep, dark, and smudge resistant. Works well for creating eyeliner from eyeshadow or powder pigments. I don't like the container it comes in and prefer a dropper bottle for my application.

This was recommended to me to use for bringing life back to dried out makeup. I have so far used it primarily with eyeshadows and it works wonders. You don't need much to have it work and a little goes a long way. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs to revive their makeup.

One of the best if not the best mixing medium

I almost didn't order this because I read some reviews about allergic reactions. I have so many allergic reactions, but I also realize that anyone can be allergic to anything. I decided to try it, so I did a test spot, which was fine. (I know allergies can happen anytime, so I will always move forward cautiously). This stuff is amazing. It gives staying power, smoothes out makeup, and mixes well with powders to make deeper colors. I love it.

I purchased this mixing medium in hopes of finding a decent dupe for Inglot Duraline. This is not it. This is very thin and watery, so I did not find it to be particularly good at creating eyeliners from eyeshadows/loose pigments. That said, it did make a nice liquid face makeup from powder foundation. It does have a bit of a chemical smell, but my extremely sensitive skin didn't seem to mind it at all, and the scent dissipates once it dries. I was a little peeved though, when I added it to a mascara to thin it out and it basically ruined the mascara. Completely broke down the formula and turned it into a flaky mess that didn't support my lashes and had to be thrown away. After seeing all the positive reviews, I've been trying everything I can think of with this product in hopes of loving it - without much luck. It does clean up the edges of eye makeup very well, and it almost seems to keep the makeup from migrating? All in all, I don't think this product is for me, but others seem to be very happy with it. For what I'm wanting it for, I probably should have just purchased Duraline. Side note: I had an old Duraline bottle with a dropper lid that I washed and added the mixing medium to for easier dispensing. I used a clean silicone baking cup (like you make cupcakes in) to funnel the liquid into the dropper bottle. This made it significantly easier to use with less product waste.
