NO!! Don't throw it away...

Ladies, are you clumsy? Drop your favorite compact or press to hard on your favorite eyeshadow? I hate that, don't you?
Today, a dear friend of mine Tovah Angelino did this and I thought...WOW do women know not to throw it away? Pick up those precious pricy pieces!! Grab alcohol and place your broken pigments back into the compact, add drops of the alcohol. I personally find using a needle to stir the mixture is easiest. Keep adding alcohol and stirring until you have a creation that looks like paste.
Grab a razor blade or anything with a straight edge and scrape the top. Let the concoction dry over night, do not close the compact!! To dry it needs air;)
Enjoy!

  1. I am going to try it. It won't dry out my face because of the extra alcohol? I was told a loooong time ago (because I am so old) that once your makeup breaks in the compact, its no good.....But I think that was around the same time that they told me that Black people can't have white babies and Michael Jackson's kids cannot be his kids. And i believed that too...until i had white babies.
