Mascara Thinner.

Yes, I also add water, but I used distilled water.

Yes, I think I’ll so the same. I have heard you can run your mascara under hot water before use but I worry that would affect the life of the ingredients eventually.

You want to know my secret to restore your mascara to brand new when that happens? And I say its my secret because I thought of it and it works!

Add 2-3 drops of fresh water from the tap (i use filtered) on your mascara brush, and then put the wand back in the bottle. Viola! Non-clumpy mascara and you can continue to use the rest of the bottle. You may need to repeat 2-3 times though, just depends what brand it is. Or you can lightly run your mascara wand under the tap, then put the wand back in the bottle. Crazy, I know… but it works!

I will SO try that. I wasn’t sure if mascara was water based but clearly it must be. I tried nail polish thinner but that didn’t work. Many thanks!

Hi Pablique,
There is an asian company that does stock a product like this http://www.evecare.com. Not sure if they post to australia though??

Many thanks. I did come across this company and alas they do not ship to Australia. YET!!

No idea, but this is an ingenious concept! I certainly hope that it’s available somewhere, I know I’d get it. Sorry I couldn’t be of any help Pablique x

Many thanks for your response. I’ll read on and see if anyone else has found it. Best invention since the bag of self chosen mixed lollies : ) xx

Mum has always added some boiled water …just a drop or two.
i hardly do it tho …. i just spend the amt on a new one as i like to turn them over very often as it is more hygenic.

I have never tried this but seems a common sense idea! Will definitely try remember this idea 🙂

huh i never thought of adding water, i guess it figures, since the mascara goes gluggy because water has evaporated.

Yes, I also add water, but I used distilled water.

Looks like I’ll be adding water to my next clugified tube of mascara! Thanks Discomilk & Chicklet 🙂
