Cut Out + Keep

Watercolor Paints Made From Make Up

A great way to reuse old makeup!

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/watercolor-paints-made-from-make-up • Posted by Kin Dragon

I was inspired by a girl on social media who reuse old make up and makes them into watercolor paints. I will admit I had to use a combination of my current watercolors and the watercolors I made to get the amazing results I got. I love how it makes the picture shimmer! The recipe was somewhat easy to understand (due to training I had to do for my occupation) but it was still a little difficult to make. If I can figure out a way to make the recipe more "understandable" I will post a tutorial on how I did it. The artist who inspired me though has a video with the recipe in it though. The artist that inspired me to make my own watercolors can be found on YouTube, Instagram and tik tok.
