How to fix broken makeup

I feel like I should have read this article before chucking out a whole lot of broken products last month at least I know for next time

Very useful advice especially seeing as some of the eyeshadow palettes are so horrendously expensive.My daughter bubble wrapped all her palettes when she went for a wedding recently.

I love isocol, I learnt this trick from my friend back in my poor uni student days haha

Isocol is a brand I'd overlooked until I came across this article.

Buying a bottle for emergencies next grocery run.

Thanks BH.

I have a Mineral Airbrushing Pressed Powder by Physicians Formula that I got via the post and when I opened the parcel it was sort of shattered - this was a long time ago but I kept the product because I couldn't bare to throw it away just becuase it was shattered. So I might try this technique on it!!

I've tried this before. I worked ok but I found it harder than before. May be I put to much alcohol and dried it out?????

People on Reddit were looking solutions so I sent them a link to this article.

I've done this with an eyeshadow palette I dropped which broke every single shade! Rotten luck! This is a great skill to learn to save a lot of wasted makeup and your money.

I have done this once and it worked so well! would highly recommend

I’ve fixed a few products, but if it’s old it might be worth throwing it out.

I've fixed a couple of broken eyeshadow shade using this method and it worked perfectly.

These are great ideas! I've been luck to never shatter anything and require this (but never say never).

This trick works for some powders, but for others it makes them go hard - 50/50 chance!

this is so helpful!

I hate wasting anything, so this is a great read.

It's never quite the same but at least it doesn't go to waste

It breaks your heart, especially if it is new

Fantastic tip, thank you. I have a rose powder blush that is totally disintegrated and an Innoxa powder eyeshadow palette that I can now fix up using this method. Glad I didn't throw my products out now :).

Never knew could do this. Handy tip to know

fantastic tip thank you

This video showed how quick and easy it is to fix broken make up and I have several favourite broken blushes. I don't have rubbing alcohol but wonder if I can use medical grade methylated spirits instead to seal the powder. Might try it anyway as only a few drops are needed.

A tragedy when makeup breaks but thanks to BH, we now have a fix!

Great tips!

great video..... for a butterfingers like me......
