Deciding Whether to Depot Palettes | Depotting without Destroying | Vlogmas 2022

In this video, Deciding whether to depot palettes, depotting without destroying, I go over a few questions that I formulate in my head in helping me to decide which palettes would be good to depot and use the original packaging as empty magnetic paletetes to hold those shadows.

Some Palettes Mentioned:
Natasha Denona Mini Love (discontinued)
BH Cosmetics Blueberry Muffin and Mimosa (weekend vibes) Discontinued or at least not stocked currently.
Natasha Denona Gold (Discontinued)

♥♥♥Tools commonly used when depotting and repressing shadows:
Antenna Magnet Tool (4 pack but the 5lb magnet was what was used)

I’ve been going back and forth on depotting the too faced chocolate gold and chocolate to make the best shades into one palette. This was pretty helpful. Thank you.

Most pans in palettes aren't magnetic anyway, so I'm not sure if it's really a helpful advice. The only question someone should be asking about whether to depot, is whether you are willing to continue doing so because it's a difficult task, and there's a good chance your eyeshadows will break and you'll have to repress them. You also need to get some magnetic palettes for storage if you don't plan on keeping the original packaging.

If you don't want to go through all that, then simply don't depot.

Probably the best video explaining whether it’s a good idea or not to depot

Very interesting video Kendra, thank you! When I depotted my too faced pumpkin spice palette last year I ended up destroying (and repressing) all the mattes 🙈. I removed the plastic tray but oh boy, that's both snap-fit and glued to the tin package and I made some minor dents while forcing it out... The glue underneath the pans was also pretty tenacious! I didn't have any, but I heard that with plastic or metal package one could use some 99% isopropyl alcohol syringed beneath the pan to melt the glue.
Little by little I'm depotting almost all my eyeshadow palettes, next year I want to be able to dupe the new releases with what I have, not for the money, but I want to use what I already own! The only palette I think I won't depot is Blendbunny's Dollhouse, the shades in there don't work for me on their own, I always have to dip my brush in two shades to adjust them to my skin tone and it wouldn't make much sense to depot them!

You could use a pin for the ND. I do like their packaging
