Repairing Damaged Eyeshadow

Shattered Eyeshadow



I was crushed when I accidentally dropped my Jesse's Girl MOONBEAM baked eyeshadow.
They are FRAGILE!
For the longest time, I was reluctant to repair it because I did not want to lose the cool marble effect.
The cracked shadow was messy.

I used my Coastal Scents EZ Press. I like it, but I hate the bottle top.
It's a click button dispenser like a shampoo bottle.
I would have preferred an eyedropper for more accurate formulation when pressing pigments etc.

Undamaged and New Eyeshadows





I used

Alcohol (to sterilize the stainless Steel Spatula and 5gram jar)
Coastal Scents EZ Press
A Sheet of Plastic
An Empty Vitamin Bottle Mouth To Attempt To Form A Dome Shape
Patience

Scraped Shattered Eyeshadow from Pan with Stainless Steel Spatula



Used Stainless Steel Spatula To Further Crush the Shattered Eyeshadow ...Goodbye Pretty Marble *sad face*



Added Enough EZ Press Until the Loose Shadow Gathered Into a Paste On the Side Of the Container






Stainless Steel Spatula Used to Form the Dome Shape





Clean Plastic and Vitamin Bottle Top Used to Shape The Shadow Further

Look Of The Day - Penny



In my family, everyone has a nickname. One of my family members was dubbed "Penny" by one of my great-aunts.
This was because of her copper skintone. I look a lot like her.




I was inspired by a couple of looks from YouTube by lilpumpkinpie.
I had insomnia last night, so I watched quite a few of her videos.
She's incredibly talented.

Eyes Of The Day (EOTD) - Project "Use What You Have"

I am on a no buy for a while. The state of the economy has necessitated this.



I'm on a mission to really use the eyeshadows I own before I indulge in purchasing any more colors. I decided to focus on experimenting with monochromatic looks using my new NK HD eyeshadows. It is also very hot in my area.
(This week marks heat wave number 5 for us!)
It is just too hot for a full face of makeup.
