Question
I have a gel eyeliner formula and want to make it more long-lasting, waterproof, and sweatproof. I have purchased Silicone Film (Long-Wear, Hard) and Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear). How should I use these ingredients to achieve the desired properties?
Answer
Based on the previous conversation and staff advice, to make your existing gel eyeliner more long-lasting, waterproof, and sweatproof using the "Silicone Film (Long-Wear, Hard)" you have purchased:
- Recommended Usage: Add "Silicone Film (Long-Wear, Hard)" at an amount of 3-5% of your eyeliner's weight.
- Method: Gently heat your eyeliner formula to 70-80°C and mix in the "Silicone Film" until fully incorporated.
- Regarding Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear): The staff advised against adding "Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear)" if the primary goal is only to improve longevity and water resistance. It is recommended to try adding the "Silicone Film" first to see if it achieves the desired result before making further modifications.
