  Drying Time for Lipstain

  Posted by Stephen on August 31, 2015 at 4:04 pm

  Hi,

  I was wondering what affects drying time for a lip stain?  Are there any chemical ingredients that can be added to reduce the drying time? The lip stain uses isododecane and MQ-1640.  The problem is that it takes too long to dry, because when its wet, it can smear and get rubbed off.  Any help is appreciated. 

  Thank You!

  Before I can answer this, I need to know what kind of position you have. Are you a professional chemist, a home crafter, a marketing person, a reporter, or just someone who wants to know more about cosmetics?

  @Bobzchemist. I think we should make your question a mandatory question for all threads!
