Brilio.net - Even though you have perfect make-up, sometimes a person has to deal with various factors that cause the make-up to fade easily. Some of the factors in question are hot weather, changes in temperature from hot to cold, and oxidation of the makeup itself. So, to avoid that from happening, everyone who has completed the makeup process is recommended to use a setting spray.
Setting spray is a makeup product created to lock makeup so that it doesn't shift easily over a long period of time. This liquid generally consists of water, alcohol and other minerals which can keep your makeup from fading or fading. However, currently there are also setting sprays available that don't use alcohol as the main ingredient, you know. Even in some products, setting sprays are also equipped with various other ingredients that can benefit your skin.
As the name suggests, setting spray was created in spray form to make it easier to apply to the face. Because of its spray form, when using the setting spray it sometimes gets stuck or the product doesn't come out. This happens because the product storage area is exposed to hot temperatures, so it doesn't cover the product completely.
To overcome this condition, most people will use a needle or pin to fix the spray pump on the setting spray bottle. Using a needle or pin is considered effective, but it does not rule out the possibility that it will damage the bottle. Because you need to open the spray cap and pierce it using a needle. The reason is, not all spray bottles have a removable spray cap.
If you experience this condition, you don't need to worry, because you can follow the trick shared by one celebTok via his personal TikTok account @vivianvil on May 31 2023. In the 1 minute 4 second video, the account owner shares tricks for dealing with setting spray. Simple traffic jams only use 1 step. Well, you don't need to use a needle, because you only need hot water.
"Those whose setting spray is stuck, let's try it!," he said in the caption of the uploaded video, which was reported by briliobeauty.net from the TikTok account @vivianvil, Saturday (17/2).
Why can hot water make the setting spray jam so it can be used again?
Hot water or boiling water is believed to be able to overcome dry, damaged makeup products, causing the products to clump. Such as lipstick, mascara, eyeliner and liquid foundation products that are dry or lumpy, you can re-liquefy them using hot water. Likewise, the setting spray is stuck and the product cannot come out. Usually, this occurs because there is a blockage in the spray pump channel by particles from the setting spray that have dried. Therefore, hot water can be used as a solution to melt dry particles and make them usable again.
Can hot water damage makeup products?
Hot water is actually not dangerous for makeup products, as long as you use the right technique. Most people will boil makeup products whether they are glass or plastic. However, you need to be careful, because there are some makeup products that are not heat resistant, so they can explode, break or melt. Therefore, before deciding to soak or boil makeup products in hot water, check the product first to avoid the possibility of anything bad happening. So what's the trick? Come on, take a look below.
