Care 200ml Surgical Spirit

Q: Can i use this just like rubbing alcohol to set my foundation back to its glory.

I wouldn't. The alcohol base you need for foundation/eyeshadow repairs, should be as pure as possible. That means that you're looking for a rubbing alcohol or surgical spirit which does not have extra medicinal additives such as the castor oil and methyl salicylate which is in most rubbing alcohols and is also in this brand of surgical spirit. Those ingredients won't evaporate off like the alcohol will, and will change the properties of your makeup. After I mistakenly made this purchase (at a time when the ingredients weren't in the listing), I gave up on medicinal alcohol and bought a small bottle of vodka instead - it worked great, and evaporated off just fine, leaving my eyeshadow in good condition. (If you're not going to put the foundation anywhere near your eyes and you aren't sensitive to aspirin and salicylates in general, then you might be more willing than me to take the risk...The methyl salicylate will after all, act to minimise spots, and it might give you a nice warm glowy feeling - it's the active muscle-warming ingredient of the rubbing alcohol, intended for therapeutic massage purposes. But. The face has more delicate skin than the places you usually use deep heat rubs, and if you have sensitive skin of any sort? Please, please don't even try it!)

Q: does this have any castor oil added to it or is it just the alchohol

It contains ,2.5% virgin castor oil.

Q: Does it help with sweeting feet problem???

It wont stop your feet from sweating, but an dab of surgical spirit between the toes using cotton wool to aid application can neutralise any associated odour.

Q: I'm looking to use this as an alternative to Rubbing alcohol for a craft project, is the percentage roughly the same (70%)?

Hi Beth, it says on the bottle Active Ingredients: castor oil 2.5% v/v, methyl salicylate 0.5% v/v. Also contains: industrial methylated spirit 95% v/v, diethyl phthalate.

Works well.

Arrived on time and in good packaging. Works well for sterilising earrings posts and a sore ear. I got a slightly swollen hole so the earring wouldn't go in easily. After a few days of treating with this it's fine. Handy stuff to have in the medicine cabinet

Really great product, does the job and good value for money. I want to state in this review that when I tried to post an EXCELLENT review of this product and the seller, my computer crashed and when I went back in found the review had been posted as a 1 - AWFUL! I was not happy as I did actaully sing praises in the text and felt terrible that the seller thought i'd given a 1 rating, when it was a technical error, i wholeheartedly give a 5! I was really impressed with the speed of delivery (arrived next day even though I hadn't opted for express postage) was really well packaged too.
