Alcohol Palette Activator 2 fl oz - Rehydrates & Extends Working Time for Makeup
About this item
Narrative Cosmetics Alcohol Palette Activator — 2 fl oz What It Does: This is an alcohol-based activator solution designed to rehydrate and activate alcohol-activated makeup. Apply a few drops to any dry or cracked palette pan, and within seconds the color comes alive — ready to apply with a brush, sponge, or airbrush. Why Use This Instead of 99% Isopropyl Alcohol: You can use 99% isopropyl alcohol as an activator — many artists do. But this Activator is formulated to provide a slightly longer open time before drying. That extra working time matters when you're blending colors on skin, building complex wound effects, or working on detailed character makeup. If your palette dries too fast with straight alcohol, this is the upgrade. Works With: All alcohol-activated makeup palettes and paints from any brand — Narrative Cosmetics, Skin Illustrator, Ben Nye, Mehron, Kryolan, Graftobian, and others. Also works for thinning alcohol-activated airbrush paints to achieve the right spray consistency. How to Use: 1. Apply 1–3 drops directly into the palette pan. 2. Wait a few seconds. Let the Activator soak into the pigment until the surface looks creamy and smooth. 3. Apply with a brush or sponge. Build layers for higher opacity. 4. For airbrush use: add Activator to thin your alcohol-based paints to the desired consistency. What's Included: One 2 fl oz (60ml) bottle with a dropper cap. Includes an additional spray cap for misting. What This Is NOT: This is not a palette. It does not contain color or pigment. It is the liquid activator you add to alcohol-activated makeup to bring the colors to life. You need a separate palette (sold separately) to create makeup effects. Who It's For: SFX artists, tattoo-cover makeup artists, cosplayers, haunted house performers, film and stage makeup artists, Halloween enthusiasts — anyone who uses alcohol-activated makeup palettes. Safety: Use in a well-ventilated area. Flammable — keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For external use only. Do not ingest. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes.
