How to Rescue Damaged Dry Powder Cosmetics Instead of Throwing Them Out!

Accidents can happen at any time.  However, you don't have to suffer when you know what to do.


Don’t you hate when you pay good money for a cosmetic like a gorgeous new palette of eye shadows that seem to compliment you perfectly, only to drop it?  Though frustrated, you may be tempted to continue just using it in that broken state, dusting the individual pieces the best you can with your brush because parting with it is so hard.  However, I have some tips that will help you out of this situation.

If you are determined to keep on using the product (this only applies to dry powders), here’s what you do. Add a few drops of rubbing alcohol to the pieces at where the breaks occur until the area is saturated.  Now take your fingers or a knife and gently press them together. Hold the pieces in place briefly.  Then allow the compact time to dry before using it again.
