Using this AFX Sideshow FX Makeup Palette is easy. First, make sure your skin is clean and dry. Then, dip a makeup brush or sponge into the palette. You can mix different colors to create unique looks. Since it's alcohol - activated, a little bit of rubbing alcohol on your brush will help pick up the pigment easily. When applying, be gentle and build up the color gradually. As for storage, keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. And always remember to wash your brushes regularly to maintain the quality of the palette. If you have sensitive skin, it's a good idea to do a patch test on a small area of your skin first to make sure there's no allergic reaction.
