This viral TikTok hack converts powder bronzers into cream bronzers.
wasn't impressed by the texture-altering technique. She tested it with a bronzer and blush, but found that the method didn't work as well with the blush. "I don't know," she says in the video while examining the final result. "I don't think I'd do this again." She revealed that because the product dried down fast, it was harder to blend out. So she was left with a patchy result.
Cosmetic chemist Ginger King also warns against this hack for hygiene reasons. "The first time is cool, but [once] the powder meets water, [it] equals a breeding ground for bacteria growth," she says. An increase in bacteria can lead to breakouts, which is largely why dermatologists recommend treatments with antibacterial ingredients like salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide.
This TikTok hack may not be the greatest option, but as King and Carrillo both shared, there are other ways to manipulate a powder's texture. So next time you're low on cream bronzer, you can just grab your setting spray and use one of their techniques.
