Really random question about Alcohol activated paint. Do you happen to know if it could be used to block UV rays while worn? 🙇‍♂️

Great vid! This convinced me to use water based paints with a sealer for the envision festival we are attending in the Costa Rican jungle. Thanks for the brand tips on the sealers. Any advice on removing the water based sealers?

Can you use glycerine based instead of alcohol activated on makeup over latex foam or silicone prosthetics on a face to avoid the risks of alcohol on the skin?

Thanks for explaining it all so clearly! I bought 100% Alcohol by accident , is it ok to use it? Or should i just be safe and get the 99%. Thanks!!

Can you use 100 % alcohol with the water activated paints?
