How to FIX Broken Makeup!

thumbs up if you find this video helpful 🥰❤️✨

Hi, I'm Alexandra. I believe life can be both glorious, tricky and even painful.. which we all know. Beauty is a practice I have enjoyed from early childhood as a way to build my confidence in myself. Not just on "special" occasions, but in my every day life and decision making. On my YouTube channel I show you practical steps and psychology to understand and apply methods in all areas of beauty; inclding fashion, makeup, hairstyling and femininity, to help us evolve and transform into our personal visions. I believe when a girl feels good about herself, she can make better choices for herself in ALL areas of life. Welcome to my channel, I'm glad you found me.

My wife accidentally dropped her blush, so now I’m watching this to surprise her and fix it! Thanks for this!

I threw away some broken eyeshadow last week because of the mess it created in my case 😭. I wish this came sooner! Thank you very much for the tip!

My 9 year old broke my Anastasia Beverly Hills Limited Edition Moon Child Highlighter Palette and i was legit in tears. I kept it because i didnt have the heart to throw it out. I just watched your video and finally fixed it like new. Thank you girl! ❤❤

Hey, great tutorial! One improvement suggestion: if you have parchment or wax paper you could put a piece over the surface wax-side down as you smooth the semi-dry surface it to keep from picking up/using product. Thanks again!

I want to do a holiday makeup look for the end of the year 😍 any specific looks you want to see? ❤️✨

When I was a teenager, I dropped my blush and ruined it. I tried this hack, but it didn't work. I didn't know I had to chop up the big pieces and then press the powder back into shape. This was way before the internet, so no experts to ask, just word of mouth. I just continued to use the broken blush, but it was messy! I'm really glad for online tutorials.

I dropped my limited MAC cosmetics eyeshadow palette this morning…. And went right into DIY repair videos. Everytime some of your make-up breaks, it takes a bit of your heart with it 😅 thank you for this video!

That's how the way I do my own eyeshadow- and face-palettes. You can mix the powders to get new colours. Or make one product out of a few rests. Or mix highlighter with matt powders or eyeshadows. Or, or, or... So you can change every powder-products you don't like into new products which will be loved by you. That's also the way you can make/mix palette-products into singles-products (you can buy litte screw-top boxes in 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 ml). So you can take your products always with you and just need a small makeup-bag.
Be crative, you will love it. But: Sometimes it takes a few hours or 2-3 days until your new product is really dried (don't close your product until its really dried!). And while it dries you should press it (every time after a few hours, 4-8 times in one day).

Two things, a powdered Blush and a Bronzer. And yes this worked great. I empitied broken contents of each into individual ziploc sandwich bags to make it easier to crush. Then cleaned up the compacts really well. I put the powders back into their compacts and followed all of your mixing directions. It worked and now both products are usable again, and looks almost new. Thanks again!!

It feels so unreal to have this many updates from you in such a short time, your content is worth waiting for so take your time if you need it. 💖

[traingirl]

Yes!! Thank you for this! I wish this video was sooner! A couple of months ago, I had to throw out my beloved Phyisicans Formula translucent powder with tears pouring down! Now, I know for next time I can save it!

I just dropped a nearly brand new Stila highlighter and it hurt my heart so much! You just fixed my broken heart! Thank you!

My mom accidentally dropped my makeup bag and the only thing that broke was my rare beauty highlighter, this is so helpful ❤

[glumdrops]

Omg you really are a lifesaver I’m so happy you’re uploading again!! Xxx

[rheaofsunshine]

This is amazing! I feel like now I know something I shouldn't! 😍💄

I broke one of my shadows in a Charlotte tilbury palette that was like $80 cause I stupidly brought it when traveling despite knowing it’s so delicate lol I haven’t been using it because of the mess. Plus I was sad cause it was of course the prettiest shade. THANK YOU

[monicablaus]

I ordered Rare Beauty Positive Light highlighter online and I did store pick up. When I got home and opened it I soon discovered it was completely smashed:(
So they apologized and said they’d send me a new one and deliver it to my home. Haven’t received it yet. They didn’t ask me to return the broken one. Sono thought I’d give this DIY for myself. Thanks for the great video. I’m about to fix it now:)

[everything]

this is such a good idea. honestly, I don't feel the need to fix it because..broken makeup still works lol but this trick can come in handy if you broke someone ELSE'S make up

[jessicabuckman]

This is great idea, awesome. Some of this makeup costs big money. Well done young lady.
