Fix Your Broken Makeup

I have this bold red blush. I love it, but one day, for no reason, it decided to break into about eight pieces. I posted a picture of it on facebook, and a very kind lady on there told me a way to fix it. It's really easy to fix, so before you throw your broken pressed powder, blush, or bronzer away: Read this.

1. Add several drops of rubbing alcohol into it--enough to saturate the broken powder without overflowing the container.

2. Stir it around just a little with your finger to make sure the mixture is homogenous.

3. Let it dry overnight. The alcohol will evaporate and your makeup will once again be in one piece. (It's not super pretty or anything, but at least it's not a broken mess anymore.)

The End!!!!

Make Your Own Makeup: Save Hundreds of Dollars Per Year!

I've been working on this one for a few months now to make sure I got them all correct first-hand before posting them.

All of the following makeup can be made naturally without many chemicals and for a fraction of the price of store bought brands. You can actually decrease toxins, boost antioxidants, and save hundreds of dollars per year! Almost all of these are my own creations that I have actually tried and I know for a fact work. The mascara is from a blog that I have found that I haven't tried yet, but hope to in the near future.



Most of these products are made with natural "food" type ingredients, so remember to make small amounts of each at a time. Larger amounts take longer to use, and bacteria can get in and destroy all your work!

1. Powder

2. Eye Shadow

3. Eye Liner

4. Mascara (I have another method I'm working on but haven't perfected yet.)

5. Blush

6. Lip Tint

7. Lip Gloss
