Omg thanks ! I thought only rubbing alcohol work (I don't have rubbing alcohol) but I tried Brandy and it worked perfectly fine and is still the same as before ! thanks so much Klaire ! You're amazing xx
I have a few broken eyeshadows. Some r in single compacts but I mostly have broken shadows in palettes. I tried fixing one but I didn't break it up nor smooth it out. 😕. Do u think I could re-break it and then do it the way u did to fix broken powder makeup? Please let me know. I really need to fix it. Thank you 😊
I have one of those pallets too. When it arrived in the mail I just dumped the cracked eyeshadow! I wish I would have saw this vid first. This is definitely going in my favorites!
Im not quite sure what you mean by household rubbing alcahol....if it's just alcahol then yes (kinda like the alcahol they use on the continent to disinfect cuts) Basicly bear in mind that what ever you mix with your eyeshadow/powder will go on your face/eyes so stay away from anything that has chemicals in it) I hope that helped:)
My favourite bronzer shattered in the pan last time I travelled! I'll definitely try this. The pan shape is a small square, so should I just use a thick piece of card wrapped in cloth to press down with? It'll be difficult to find something hard that's the exact size and shape. PS. This is a good excuse to buy vodka haha!
Oh my gosh they look so much like the original look of the makeup! But i have a question, will the alcohol affect the purity of the makeup? Will it alter the color or the pigmentation of the eyeshadows? Will it still adhere to the skin as good as when it hasn't been mixed with alcohol?
That was really helpful, thank you! I just bought a 120 palette and it arrived with one of the shadows smashed to bits. I don't drink, so I think I'll be heading to Boots to try to get some alcohol.
Let me commend you on a video well done, straight to the point, precise in explaining, and clean. There's nothing more infuriating than these "How To" videos posted by teens wherein they tell you the entire life story of the makeup before they ever get to the point of repairing it. Life is too short to have someone waste the first 3 minutes of it on where they got it, where they carry it, how it broke, how it made them feel, blahblahblah. I've lost so many hours of my life with that! Thank you!
Omg Klaire this is EXACTLY what I need! My eyeshadow break all the time cause im always on the go and dropping my purse and such so my makeup gets a beating. It's annoying ot keep replacing it when it's almost brand new so you just saved me like $50-$75 a month!
Yes you can use rubbing alcohol. And the coin you use is the one that fits your eyeshadow. EnKore has a vid on this too with rubbing alcohol....and without breaking up the whole eyeshadow which might be easier but I haven't tried this one
I love that as well as the branded makeup you also have the cheap 88/120 eyeshadow palette from ebay. So many tutorial places only use the best of the best when it comes to makeup and when you aren't rich but want a large choice of colours you don't have the option of using high end makeup products and the cheaper ones work the same even if the pigmentation isn't quite as strong, I love my pallete even if it does make me look like a cheapskate lol
Thank you for posting this! I kind of made the mistake of grinding up an eyeshadow under the silly idea that it would work like a powdered eyeshadow... That didn't work so well... At all... But now I can repair what I destroyed ^_^ Do you have any tips for eyeshadows that just don't seem to want to be used? Like they're kind of too hard... O.o
Awesome idea:) Almost everyone of my eyeshadows is broken, so I can start saving all of them now :P I was just wondering: what is the purpose of putting the cloth in alcohol?
does this method work well with any type of eye-shadow? because i saw a tutorial similar to this one and they said there, that it doesn't work on shimmery eye-shadows..
hi guys,, this proceed only works with eyeshadow? cause i have a press powder that is so beautiful ... but is broken :( thanks a lot! your video is very very nice :)
Hi, I have a little problem. My powder is broken and we dont have some vodka or rubbing alcohol at home. BUT we have aquavit and cognac. Can that be used?
Do u think i could use water? Or rybbing alcohol, because i dont think my parents will let me use alcohol, and i can find anything to fit in it because, it is a blush.?!?? What should i do
Im so stupid, i didnt have any eyeshadow broken when i got it in the mail, but now i dropped the palette and i broke 2 eyeshadows :S We dont have rubbing alcohol in Finland, so can i use 37% alcohol?
but my eye shadow is a mini one that has 3 eye shadows stuck together and they are all mixed up now. the three colors are light blue brown and white. if i mix them up together it will look so ugly! and the metal thing at the bottom is rectangle and i don't have any rectangle coins!
If it means anything, I LOVE your voice. after watching your videos I even tend to pick up your accent a bit, considering I live in the U.S. and speak pretty differently xD
@loloonmara u can just buy rubbing alcohol, like the one used in cleaning wounds instead of drinking alcohol it's the same thing. like what she said she didn't have any other alcohol except for vodka.
I woudl have thought so...just basicly bear in mind that what ever you use will go on your face so dont use anything that has chemicals in it:) I hope that helped:)
I have just bought an eyeshadow palett, and when I opened it, it was all broken. It is a palett of baked shadows, and they are domed. How can I fix those? Does anyone have an idea?

Omg thanks ! I thought only rubbing alcohol work (I don't have rubbing alcohol) but I tried Brandy and it worked perfectly fine and is still the same as before ! thanks so much Klaire ! You're amazing xx
I used it on my bronzing powder too ! It was so expensive that's why I had to find a way to save it, it really work guys !
You can use rubbing alcohol...do they have that?

@logIT135 Alcohol evaporates after the eyeshadow dries so no it will not affect you :)

This is the best makeup repair video I have seen. Thank you. I was wondering if I can try this method on my Bronzer powder?

Can I use vodka? and is it safe to use alcohol?
Yes you can use rubbing alcohol. And the coin you use is the one that fits your eyeshadow. EnKore has a vid on this too with rubbing alcohol....and without breaking up the whole eyeshadow which might be easier but I haven't tried this one
Should do...I'd have to see it to say for sure...if you're not sure test it out on only some of it:)
I love that as well as the branded makeup you also have the cheap 88/120 eyeshadow palette from ebay.

wow i didn't know you could fix broken eyeshadows! does rubbing alcohol work? my eyeshadows are oval & square shaped -___-
thats amazing but what would the alcohol do to sensitive skin? surely it wouldnt be any good
True. I decorate cakes and use high grain alcohol all the time. It Evaporates much faster than water.
@jenna0123456 You can always turn the volume off :)
So does all the alcohol evaporate?
Thank you for posting this! I kind of made the mistake of grinding up an eyeshadow under the silly idea that it would work like a powdered eyeshadow... That didn't work so well... At all...

What palette did you use?? :) I love it!
does this method work well with any type of eye-shadow?
because i saw a tutorial similar to this one and they said there, that it doesn't work on shimmery eye-shadows..

Hi, I have a little problem.
My powder is broken and we dont have some vodka or rubbing alcohol at home.
BUT we have aquavit and cognac.
Can that be used?
klaire you're great! lol how do you know these things? trail and error or have you taken makeup classes before? lol.
@KlairedelysArt where do you get those jars? I have been looking for them for forever!
I personally haven't used it for foundation but I have seen quite a few gurus which have done that and it worked fine:-)
do you think this would work for blushes as well? xx
This was SO helpful.
5 of the colors broke in my 120 palette and I was desperate to fix them.
Thanks so much. :)
Do u think i could use water? Or rybbing alcohol, because i dont think my parents will let me use alcohol, and i can find anything to fit in it because, it is a blush.?!?? What should i do
Will this still be safe to use, since alcohol was used to mend it?
It will work for pressed powder as well:)
amazing! my mineralized eye duo from mac just broke and now i can fix it ! thank you darling
@KlairedelysArt What pallete is that? its super pretty
hehe glad I'm not the only one that thought of vodka! I used it to depot my eyeshadows and re-press one of the ones that broke as well. :) Great tip!
Can you mend your pouder findation also with alcohol?
can i do that with compact powder or does it just work with eyeshadows?
could i do this on a larger powder? like a bronzer from a blush palette?
what i have is 96° alcohol.. used for desinfection purposes.. can i szill use it for mending my eyeshadows? :)
I have asked this question before but I don't think that u got it. Wat program do u use to edit your videos?
Dumb question, but can I use rubbing alcohol?
i love whatching this video and can i use rubbing alcohol
Yup:) so long as it's a powder eye shadow it will work:)
coool thanks for making this video how'd you find this out?
is this good/healthy for younger people just new to makeup? I definately dont want to be smacking alchohol onto my eyes!
@Kittypirateagain So the eyeshadow doesn't stick to the cloth
@KlairedelysArt Can you use this method for solid foundation?
Can I use water or anything else instead of alcohol?
could you turn a powder into a pressed powder using this?
Can you use this method to fix broken pressed powder?
Doesnt water work in the same way as alcohol?
@janitajasmin That should work:) Just test it out with an eyeshadow you don't care for first just in case :)
@pandacotterman alcohol*. And you should let it dry for a couple hours because when it dries, the alcohol evaporates.
did you break the green just to show us, or did you break the brown?
Could I do this to my pigments to fit in my makeup pallet or does it not work the same? o:
Wouldnt u get the print off a 5p on ur shadow?
Im so stupid, i didnt have any eyeshadow broken when i got it in the mail, but now i dropped the palette and i broke 2 eyeshadows :S We dont have rubbing alcohol in Finland, so can i use 37% alcohol?
How long should it take to let it dry?
the eyeshadows won't smell like alcohol, will it ? but hey, im so gonna try this out :)
what alcohol percentage is your vodka ? because i have the same vodka but only 31% alcohol?!
This is surprisingly easy and doable! Thanks for this. Mine is drying right now
Can we use this method to powder ??
only VODKA ? or anything alcohol ?
but my eye shadow is a mini one that has 3 eye shadows stuck together and they are all mixed up now. the three colors are light blue brown and white. if i mix them up together it will look so ugly! and the metal thing at the bottom is rectangle and i don't have any rectangle coins!
Great tutorial 👍just remember to clean the 5 p. coin thoroughly before you press it into the eyeshadow
can you use rubbing alcohol?
If it means anything, I LOVE your voice. after watching your videos I even tend to pick up your accent a bit, considering I live in the U.S. and speak pretty differently xD
@KlairedelysArt can i use rubbing alcohol?
@awsomechic247 NO WAY DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!! You'd seriously damage your skin!
@loloonmara
u can just buy rubbing alcohol, like the one used in cleaning wounds instead of drinking alcohol it's the same thing. like what she said she didn't have any other alcohol except for vodka.
Wow, you have sooo many great tips!
I'm not the most careful person in the world, so a few of my eyeshadows are broken..
Thank you so much!
what kind of cloth should you use?
Is the alcohol going to irritate your eyes
how do you press eyeshadows that are in a non circular pan?
@lalalaladontburnurha
have you tried rubbing alcohol?
That is brilliant! I was always of the mind that once broken it had to be thrown out. Thank you!
OMG!!! Thank youuu! The other night I broke 2 eyeshadows ! Now they're fixed :)
so, rubbing alcohol would work?
What do i do if i dont have anything the size of the eyeshadow dish? can i press it with my finger?
You'll get fingerprints in it and also, your finger is probably either too big or too small for the eyeshadow dish.
use a coin
Constanta Angelica use a coin
can you also use medical alcohol?
Where'd u get all ur eyeshadows
Thanks! I just mended one of the eyeshadows in my M.A.C pallete using Grey Goose Vodka! So happy now!!
I am about to fix my broken eyeshadow now...it is so good that I just don't want to throw it away. :)
I happen to love her videos because just 3 days ago my eyeshadow broke and this video was very helpful in me fixing it.

I woudl have thought so...just basicly bear in mind that what ever you use will go on your face so dont use anything that has chemicals in it:)
I hope that helped:)
I have just bought an eyeshadow palett, and when I opened it, it was all broken. It is a palett of baked shadows, and they are domed. How can I fix those? Does anyone have an idea?
well i did what you showed us, but now my eyeshadow is ruined :/ there is no color payoff at all after the pressing!
