Kyanara awnsers your questions; about Mod Podge as a sealer. Unable to reply to questions in the comments.

Hi everyone
I recently got a question from annonymous, if you can use Mod Podge as a sealer for you face-ups. And if the Glue in it will harm your resin.

First of all: 
No, the glue inside won't harm your resin. I have used Mod podge as a way of sealing my tattoo's and they have not harmed my resin in either way.

Mod Podge as a sealer?
Mod Podge is not a sealant you want to use for your entire face-up. Mod podge is not meant to be a sealant like MSC or Citadel purity seal.
Both MSC and Citadel have a grid to them, almost like a very fine sand paper, which hold on to the pastel and paint. Mod podge does not have that  grid and thus won't hold on to the pastel and paint.
Also, If you use Mod podge as you main sealer your face-up will become very verus shiny and that is not really pretty,

I hope I was able to answer your questions.

Answering a Question about mod podge spray. Unable to reply to comments on my blog.

Hi everyone, and especially to anonymous who asked me a question on my sealant blog post.

I hope you get to read this, as I found I am for some odd reason unable to reply to your question on the post itself. Blogger doesn't seem to want to post my reply. And I tried a lot of times. So I thought i'd answer your question here, in the hope you will get to read it. And I also thought the answer would be of help to others as well.

Anonymous question to me was;
Is Mod Podge spray version any good to (final) seal your face-up.

I must honestly say I have never used the spray version of mod podge and thus I can not say if it is any good for face-ups. Or even safe to use on doll resin. But, if it is the same formula as the liquid version that comes in a bottle I would not use it so final seal your head. Mod podge tends to be a shinier that for example MSC. It's good to use on tattoo's and scars as that are just a little spots on your doll. But if you face is completely shiny it will look really weird compared to its body. I personally do not think it looks nice.
Ofcourse you can always try the formula, I would suggest you use a spare part or the headcap of your doll als a test area for the sealant. Just to make sure of it is safe and if it dries nicely before you potentially harm your face-up or the resin of your dolls head.
I hope I was able to help you with this.
