Lovers of beautiful cilia know: even good mascara begins to dry out over time. This cannot be prevented in any way. The dried mascara does not lie well on the eyelashes, does not stain them and leaves lumps. How to dilute
mascara so as not to spoil it and not harm the eyes?
Immediately make a reservation that dilution is a temporary measure. If no methods help, then definitely you need to buy a new mascara. This is the first.
Secondly, you need to pay attention to the expiration date. If he came out, feel free to discard the mascara. Perhaps it can be reanimated, but take pity on your eyes.
Thirdly, it is necessary to distinguish between cases when the mascara has dried up and when it has ended. If the brush is dry, and there are no mascara flakes on it, then the tube is used. If you definitely still have mascara, but it’s already problematic to use it, then you can try to return the desired consistency to it.
Before diluting the mascara , it is worth reading the composition. If you find paraffin there, then just drop the tube of carcass for a few minutes in a mug of hot water, and then stir.
Did not help? Well, we’ll find out how to dilute mascara so that it stretches out even before buying a new one.
Eye drops
To drip a few drops (means "Visin", "Oftagel", "Naphthyzin") in a tube or on a brush. Eye drops, in addition to diluting the mascara, also destroy the microbes that have accumulated in the tube.
Even better, if you use a similar liquid for storing contact lenses. Its composition is similar to the composition of the tear, which eliminates allergic reactions and irritation.
Water
A couple drops of mineral, distilled or ordinary boiled water. In order not to add too much, it is better to drip onto the brush and gradually dilute the mascara. But this method has disadvantages. Water can cause irritation, so do not use it to breed mascara if your eyes periodically become inflamed. In addition, the mascara diluted in this way will crumble.
Tea
It is necessary to brew strong tea, add a couple of tablespoons of sugar, stir, drop a few drops in a tube and lower the ink bottle in a glass of tea for a few seconds.
Vegetable oil
In no case do not take the usual sunflower! Mascara will be smeared. We are interested in jojoba, burdock, almond or peach. Literally a bit. If you add more, the effect will be like from sunflower oil.
Eye Makeup Remover
It is desirable that the product was of the same company as the mascara. However, your make-up remover should not contain alcohol!
We have described the safest ways to breed dried mascara. But it is equally important to know how to dilute mascara categorically is impossible! It:
- Alcohol-containing compounds (lotions, colognes, perfumes, vodka, etc.).
- Saliva. Forget about the fact that once there was solid mascara, which was bred using ordinary spitting. Saliva contains a huge number of bacteria and other microorganisms.
- Ammonia and hydrogen peroxide. Burn eyelids or eyes for beautiful eyelashes? It is unlikely that anyone will agree to such an exchange.
So, now you know how to dilute mascara if it starts to dry. But once again we recall that the methods are temporary, and any of them can cause an unpredictable reaction. Be careful and take care of the health of your eyes! Do not sacrifice it for the sake of imaginary beauty. Use these methods in extreme cases, but as soon as possible just buy a new good mascara.
