Tip: Stop Your Paint Pots/Liners From Drying

Credits to http://mywomenstuff.com
I don't know about you guys, but I've thrown away so many of my gel/cream liners because they all dried up.  I've tried reviving them by mixing in certain products, but they then lose their original formula and would start smudging/flaking, so I've given up on purchasing those liners from high end brands.

Here's a tip on how to prevent the drying from happening!

Reason: The products dry up simply because air gets into the container whenever you open/close it. So what is the best method? Scoop out a small section from the pot and put it into a different container to prevent air from drying it out!

Step 1: Clean out an old container.



Step 2: Take a mini spatula or anything you choose to use to scrape a section out of your new paint pot/cream/gel liner.



Step 3: Take the portion you've scooped out, and put it in the empty container! That's it!



And when you're done with your small little section, just scoop out another portion and refill it. That way, less air gets into the pot and it will have a smaller chance of drying out :)
