I’m a beauty whizz and this is why I swear by Calamine lotion to do my make-up, it’s a total game-changer
A SAVVY beauty whizz has shared why and how she uses Calamine lotion to get the perfect make-up to last all day long.
Hailee Clark shared a clip on her social media to demonstrate how she keeps her “Stagecoch makeup on for 12+ hours in 105 degree heat”. [sic]
Showing a large bottle of Calamine lotion, she then took a small mirror and added some drops on it.
Dipping a brush into the liquid, she then applied it all over her face and wrote: “No moisturizer or primer just the Calamine lotion- let dry”. [sic]
While her neck and chest appeared a darker colour, her face was coated in the light pink liquid.
She then applied her normal make-up over this, including foundation, bronzer, blush, eyeshadow, mascara and lipstick.
Showing off how well it lasted, she revealed her face at 11am first and then 1am the following morning.
“No touch ups needed,” she wrote in the caption with a peace hand sign emoji.
In the comments of the TikTok video, she added: “i only have a filter on in the boomerang cuz I forgot to take a video. The last video has no filter or I would look a little cuter lol”. [sic]
People were amazed at how well it worked and immediately shared their thoughts on the matter.
“The state of that bottle tells me everything I need to know it’s a good product!! What time I’m gonna try it !!!” [sic] one person said.
“My skin is too dry for that,” another argued, to which @_makeupbyhailee replied: “I’m an oil spill lol”.
Another said: “As an oily girl, seeing all these “my skin way to dry for this” makes me think this would actually work for me,” followed by a crying with laughter emoji.
A third revealed that Calamine lotion can also be found in a clear form as they said: “they sell this in clear. I mix a little with my face moisturizer! I’m 43 & get toldI have great skin”. [sic]
A fourth shared: “I love this hack! Tried it a year ago and it works for sure!! Makeup didn’t budge for 18hrs!!”
And a fifth added: “Oooo I need to try this! My skin is so oily I can never get my makeup to last all day in the salon”.
