Love your channel 🎉 sorry but can you remind us of the alcohol spray that you used, what do you call it?

[@CreatedandMadeStudios]

Thank you so much and sorry for the late reply! But that was just plain isopropyl alcohol - 70%. You can get it at the grocery store or Walmart. I just put it in an empty spray bottle 🙂
