INSTANT REUNION LOVE SPELL CASTER TO BRING BACK YOUR EX ASAP. dr.makinidrmurugu@gmail.com
I want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage. I was married for 7years with 2kids and we livest of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce. I pleaded and tried everything but still, nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster Dr. Murugu who eventually helped me out. I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice. He did special prayers and used roots and herbs. Within 48 days she called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma she had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our third child. I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news. I just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it.

This is pretty much the method I use. I've had mixed results with matte products, it works best with shimmers.

Well this is a handy recipe to have on hand. It is a remedy if I need to fix broken powder compacts and powder eyeshadow.

It'd have to be a really expensive one for me to be bothered with this

This definitely works, I've tried it and works like a charm, I would not recommend for people with extra dry, or sensitive skin though. While the alcohol does evaporate almost completely, some people may still find it drying or a bit harsh if they're super sensitive.

I actually tried this with some blush that was broken. It worked, then when I used it again it crumbled.

Isocol is a multiple use product. Handy to have.

I don’t think I will try this method. Just worried it might change the color/ texture. But ladies, give it a go if it’s an expensive product rather than throwing it away.

Thankfully I’ve never broken any of my makeup. Fingers crossed I don’t start now!

Lucky I broke the Becca highlighter champagne pop, it was a horrible day (lol) but I fixed it using the same method.

I love this technique! sadly doesn't work on all formulas though. Some of my highlighters have been ruined after using rubbing alcohol on them :(
