I found some by MAC and a few other brands but I don’t know if its worth the $18 price tag.

Its just glycerin and water, right?

Do you guys feel its worth it to use or not?

I've been wanting to get it, it's good for diluting/thinning out foundations supposedly and for mixing pigments, but i want it mainly for adhering glitter to the eyes.

^ I didn't know you could dilute foundation with it.

I want it because according to some people...it intensifies color.

I found a recipe online to make some at home and I think I am going to try it out.

Its literally 1 part glycerin and 3 parts water.

It's also used to make eyeshadow into liner or adhering glitter as mentioned above. I actually really want to to try Fix+. Mixing Medium is a Pro product btw.

I have been using the glycerin and water concoction...the mixture costs me roughly $3 to make. It works reallyyyyy well.

Basically it helps shadow come off more intense and sticks well...so far so good!

But I still want to try using the Fix+ to see if its a better product overall and worth the money.

U have to be careful when using mixing medium on clients as it can make some people's eyes quite sensitive.x
