It’s happened to the best of us – you’re getting ready for a night out when you drop your makeup compact. The horror is about on par with dropping your phone, but instead of a cracked screen, your eye shadow, blush, bronzer, or powder concealer is now shattered into teeny tiny pieces.
Think twice before declaring your makeup useless. After years of dealing with this issue, there is finally a solution to fixing your broken compact into the complete, unbroken state you love. Top Knot‘s DIY solution involves just your broken compact, some rubbing alcohol, a butter knife, and some clear plastic wrap. Check out the video below for the easy how to (that literally anyone can do).
Commenters on the video raised the valid concern of putting alcohol on their faces, but apparently it all evaporates in this instance. Besides, the stuff in your makeup probably isn’t the best for your skin either. Just to be safe, don’t forget to wash your face often and moisturize.
Now excuse us, we have approximately half our makeup stock to fix.
