[Beckaj5446]

I already have Glycerin from the Hobby store and it says it's not edible and to avoid direct contact with eyes. Is this the wrong kind of Glycerin, do I need the kind you would find in the baking isle? Thanks

[IndependentMissJ89]

[pastorwright1]

[dabadestceecee]

believe it or not alot of ppl DONT know what mixing medium is and they don't watch EnKore. So for different ppl to have different videos up is a good thing. More ppl can learn about it. EnKore doesnt own this so it's not a crime for someone to make their own video about it

[babynur96]

Where can i get Glycerine in Singapore? Btw, what does a mxing medium do?

[qweaz987]

u cn get it at walmart 2.

[12quillemall5321]

Is this like Mac fix

[jciruelas3]

do you think its okay to use mixing medium with mineral foundation for the face. My face is really sensitive and i tend to break out. so my question is, would you advise to use glycerin on your face?

[candiecc]

No I would not advise it! with sensitive skin I would just stick with maybe the mixing medium by mac.

[MercedesGames]

Do u want to mix that with foundation or something...?

I wouldn't recommend either actually if that's what its for...If u have any kind of oily skin...then no...cause either one is made with some form of oil..and i don't thin its recommended for faces..I would think it would clog your pours..

[Gibbzalicious]

to jciruelas3:

glycerin is good for your face, it keeps moisture locked in. it's used in a lot of facial products.

i explained that horribly lol so i would say look up EnKoreMakeup's video called 'what is Fix+?'

but yes, mixing medium and mineral foundation is actually a good idea, i do that often and it seems to give me a smoother finish than just using the mineral foundation normally :)

[mermer3m]

why dont you just use visine?

[candycane19]

wow i love those colors

[dlvme2]

Your voice is so pleasant and you are terrific at explaining things. Using the mixing medium does it help prevent creasing and what about waterproofing? What all does it affect? This is the first time I have watched you and I thoroughly enjoyed it and will watch again. Thanks again : O)

[sweetydass1792]

what is this for? like what is it supposed to do?

[candiecc]

At the end of the video I show you what it dose for you eyeshadow you have to watch the entire video:)

[sweetydass1792]

ha, thanks a lot!

[candiecc]

that's okay:) thank you for watching :) it's cool LOL!

[gingersnaps52]

Great video. Well organized. Great Close Up Shots with your camera......

Right to the point and like seeing the close up of the product to buy from the store.

I will be going to Rite-Aid or WalMart tomorrow to purchase my glycerin.

[YellowLaLas]

can u use this to press minerals?

[bittasweetlove]

Thanks girl:-} I didn't even know what a mixing medium was untill I found you lovley ladies on YT :-}

Vicki

[ashlleey986]

Wonderful, thanks!

[FredFiggleharn]

its fred

[flingladybug]

Can this be used as a pressing medium as well?

[NappturallyZuri]

I have vegtable glycerine. is that the same as what you have or do I need regular glycerine?

[candiecc]

I'm not sure? Ive never heard of vegetable glycerin but check it out:) other than that I would stick with what's on this video cause I know this works and it's not harmful:)

[ShayVtheModel]

I found glycerin at WALMART for $ 2:99 !!!!

[penbus492]

i got the exact same bottle and i made my mixing medium and my face spray from EnKore as well. He is a genius and I just love him like I love you as well

[LynH7727]

great video.very easy to follow.thanks candice!

[ladycateyes]

thank you for this video!

[felic70]

not enkore. not good old koren. you know what he blocked me and i asked pursebuzz to see if she could get him to unblock me cuss i have watched pursebuzzes vids for ages but no result. well enkore is anoying anyway

[MsTashiaisontherise]

Thanks alot for this vid. After watching it I went to Walmart and purchased for $2.69same size bottle too-

[petitetoolbox]

This is excellent! Thank you soooo much for sharing.((( HUGS)))

[mynameisrachelx]

Can you use regular water or does it have to be distilled?

[amcie]

i wish you had done a test at the end to see if the wet pigments stay on better after rubbing your wrist. maybe you could tell me whether or not the mixing medium improves the staying power?

[akakaka18]

you said a lot goes a long long way

did you mean a little bit goes a long way

;)

[candiecc]

My bad LMAO!!! yes a little goes a long way!

[stephaniehellstron]

what is mixing medium

[kitston]

I've just bought a bottle of Glyrine (glycerol) it says kosher on it too. It also says;

IRRITANT! Avoid contact with skin and eyes!

Should I use it still, I can't understand why it says it if it is?

[candiecc]

If it reads that I would not use it:( is the the same as the one I used?

[Rylanxoxo06]

:]]

[indiatainafrmpr]

yes ladies, either make little at a time, or throw it out because with us making it ourselves it contains no preservatives.

[PrecociousPoet]

ENKORE said that you're actually only suppose to keep mixing medium for 2 weeks becuz it goes bad after that

[candiecc]

Oh ok I kept mine it was cool but Im sure he knows:) so now I will throw it away after 2 weeks thank you so much!

[SparklemotionX]

Thank you so much for this tutorial and the swatching.

[candiecc]

thank you!

[RicePudden]

If your like me and don't have a rite-aid, walmart has it too, its on the same row as the band-aids and alcohol

[seemak12008]

is it ok to use natural spring water instead of purified water?

[candiecc]

Im sure that would be ok but I would check it out first:)

[babykisz]

great video, loved the demo. those colors are very vibrant.

[nygrl119]

can u get glycerin at a cvs or walgreens?

[candiecc]

I not really sure:( but you should be able too?

[RicePudden]

yeah i got mine at walgreens

[priincess911]

thank you i think its always good to have a cheap yet effecient alternative to high end brands :)

[cunningprose]

I've never seen Dollar Tree (our dollar store near me) pigments. What is the exact name of the dollar store you purchased this at?

[Valerie07777]

The guy on enkore suggest that you dispose of your mixing medium after 2-4 weeks. Besides using the small amount because it lasts long the reason you want to not use much and dispose of it is because of the bacteria that starts growing in the mixing medium. If you look for Korens mixing medium video she talks about replacing the MM after 2weeks. She even shows the mossy stuff that grew in there after 3weeks. Really grosse

[bbsxprincess]

I can't wait to try this! I have a HUGE eyeshadow set that I got for Christmas. It's from JC Penny. The colors are EXTREMELY un-pigmented(haha, I don 't think that's a word) but they look very pretty in the container but dull on my skin. However, it will always fall out. Would mixing medium help that?

[aliandtulio]

use that or use a base, cream eyeshadow, nyc jumbo white pencil, or urban decays primer.. if you want great make up for cheap .. go to ebay type in 120 or 88 palettes are great!!! way cheap.. and the pigment is way better..mac quality

[iwantimplants]

thank you so much for this! I knew you could make it, but I didn't know how! LOL

[shinediaz26]

grwat tutorial,i will go and pick me up a bottle and make my own instead of mac.now just with the blue sometimes you don't need the pigments but for those sluggish colors that drag on the brush and look pale,it would really give you a jump start with the intensity.xoxo muah!

[gemethat28]

Wow this video helped so much. I been buying so many things to try to intensify my eye shadow nothing worked but this works great thatnks

[prisilavila]

great great video!this is a really helpful videoo thanx so much!!!!

[justnancy28]

I made some already, but my question is, what is the consistency that you should have? Mine is sort of watery...is that how it should be? I did do the one to three parts.

[candiecc]

yes it should be:) you got it right!

[sassimami08]

I was able to find the glycerin in walmart for cheaper in the bandaid aisle for $2.84..check it out :)

[candiecc]

Work it gurl! that's what Im talking about!!! find those deals! Yeehhheeee!!!

[sia916]

do you know which aisle it is. where do they usually put it.

[candiecc]

I got mine in the bandaid aisle as well:) just like sassimami08:)

[shyekiera]

where did you buy those eyeshadows?

[candiecc]

at a beauty supply! but they do have a website:)

[lilnemo1979]

thank you & enkore for this... :) have a blessed day

[usaggi]

wow, thank you very much! now im surely gonna look smashing with my own mixing medium XD

[xoxl0verxox]

wut does a mixing medium do?

[candiecc]

It help intensify your pigments it also allows you to turn your eyeshadows into liners! and so much more!

[kfed1974]

Thank you for this recipe.....I used with my pigments and they lasted all night!!

[TRINICANDY223]

wow thanks for the tip ! Im going to do this..

[Aliciamaedee]

heya :) what store did you buy splash from also any other suggestions for CHEAP pigments because i am only 11 and i am working off of my babysitting money LOL!! i get paid pretty good but i wont be able to buy mac until i get a real job and try to mention ones from stores not online realitors

[candiecc]

I got it at a beauty supply place but you can buy them on line they have a website:)

[Aliciamaedee]

ok what is the website because thay look good

[candiecc]

cherryculture is the website!

[Aliciamaedee]

okeydokie :) once again you rock!! im going to start working on my video tommorrow because i got school lol my mom just scolded me and said 5 more minutes LOL :)

[SlowSnail2]

Can I use tap water instead of distilled water?

[candiecc]

I would use distilled it cleaner:)

[TheNaturalWoman]

This is very new to me. I'm a makeup fiend, but I don't know what a mixing medium is or what it's used for. Is it for making colors more intense?

[candiecc]

Yes that's Right! you will love it! its great for using on pigmet too:)

[MyPinkRainbow]

that was great, i found the glycerin at drug mart the pharmacist ordered it for me and i have tried and looked every where for splash cosmetics and cannot find them any where i am interested in a few hula hula and what ever else they carry in pink , thanks so much i just love your channel candiecc muah your the best

[candiecc]

Thank you MyPinkRainbow I hope things are getting better for you:) My Prays re with you!

[nicolestyles82]

I am having a hard time finding a bottle of glycerin in this freakin' town! Aggghh! Lol! The sacrifices of living in a small college town...LMAO!

[candiecc]

MyPinkRainbow said that the pharmacist ordered it for her that sounds like a good idea:)

[nicolestyles82]

Okie dokie - I will try that later...thanks!

[nevergvup]

thank you candie!! I really have to have a candiecc video marathon because I didn't see this one! do you think that a syringe (like a cough syrup dropper or something)would be easier to use? to add the mixers? also you say not to dip it in your shadow is it ok to just apply the mixing medium right to your eye(sorry if that is a dumb question you know I am learning lol)

[candiecc]

Thats a great idea:) and No you cant apply it to the eye:( you will have a hot mess lol!

[nevergvup]

lol ok thanks!

[franceswilliams]

hey candie!

thanks for sharing honey...u rock!

Frances

[candiecc]

Thank you Frances! This one was fun because I didnt have to be in front of the camera:)

[djlovespell]

ha very cool! Thanks Candie

[candiecc]

Thank you girl! You can save a lot of money doing this one:)

[djlovespell]

lol and LAWD knows i need to save as many pennies as i can..ROFLMAO!

[candiecc]

I know that's right more money for the makeup for me lol!

[AssiieJj]

I made this mixing medium, but when I dip my brush into the loose powder with the MM on it and put it on my eye or my hand it gets clumpy and it sticks together...? Help?

[candiecc]

Try using a little less MM that should work:) let me know Okay:)

[AssiieJj]

It's not the way it should be

If I use it (with eyeshadowpowder)It sometimes get clumpy or If I'm using eyeshadow he didn't pick up anything ... Weird.... But I'll try it! :) Thanks.

[candiecc]

try using a smaller amount!

[EnKoreMakeup]

Yeay Candie!!! wow look at your work area - so clean and prestine! LOVE it!! Great job on the tut! and thanks for the mention you're sweet. ~K

[candiecc]

Yeayyyyy!!! Hi EnKoreMakeup It's all because of you! Thank you so much for showing me how to do this I love it! I use it Everyday to put on my brows with the carbon by Mac!

[jblovly]

whats a medium?

[candiecc]

Hey jblovly! It's a medium that allows you to use with your eyeshadow wet! or your pigments too:) it gives you a more vibrant look to the shadow I talk about it in the video:) and show you?

[ATLMicki]

YT wouldn't let me respond to the email, but I'd LOVE too!!!!!

[candiecc]

What!!!! Bet I will call you!

[Prettie1]

This was so informative!  Thank you for posting this video!

[candiecc]

Thank you Prettie1

[Makeup2inspire]

Hey Candi,

Do know if the pigments would crease on the lid due to the glycerin in the mixing medium being so moist? Just wondering from your own experience. Thanks <3

[candiecc]

Very good question:) But no I have experienced that yet:) because I make sure that when I am applying the medium that im using a very small amount!

[nicolestyles82]

You got the pigments in the vid from a dollar store? What kind of dollar stores do you guys have? Lol. I need to go too!

[candiecc]

Well it was a dollar store/beauty barber supply:)

[xSammyxSocksx]

Great video..

And they charge 5 dollars for splash at my stores.

[candiecc]

$5.00 EACH!!! Oh MY!!!

[VitaBellaMakeup]

what section of the store do you find the glycerin in?

[candiecc]

It's funny but it was near the fist Aid stuff! I had to ask:)

[honeybee9695]

[candiecc]

Thank you honeybee9695

[1prettyfox]
