It takes a lot to find that neutral toned eyeshadow you’ve been looking for or the powder foundation that gives your skin that peachy texture. This makes it devastating when one of your favorites has been smashed to smithereens. It happens more often than we’d like. You drop them while you’re applying your makeup or they show up smashed in your makeup bag, putting it all to waste.

Whether it’s foundation, bronzer, highlighter, translucent powder, blusher or eyeshadow, makeup in compact texture carries this annoying risk. When this happens, there are two types of people: those who rush the product even when it’s shattered, and those who, with all the pain in their hearts, throw it away.

From Ecosolutions Chemicals we have good news: there are some proven methods to fix broken makeup.

What is isopropyl alcohol and how to use it to fix your powder makeup?

As you may already know, isopropyl alcohol is a type of chemical compound that, to a large extent, is used to clean all types of surfaces.

But apart from cleaning, isopropyl alcohol can have many other uses thanks to its very fast evaporation. One of them is the case at hand: repairing broken makeup.

Steps to follow

The first step to repair broken makeup is to apply a few drops of 99.9% pure isopropyl alcohol on top of the damaged product. It has to be little by little being careful not to add too much and that at the end the paste becomes liquid.

With the help of a dessert spoon, the product is delicately unified. The objective is to mix all the pieces and to form a sort of uniform dough with a paste texture.

Finally you must press it, pressing with a paper towel on the product.

Let dry with the lid open. The time it will take to dry will depend on the amount of isopropyl alcohol you had to add.

Always use 99.9% pure isopropyl alcohol for this purpose, without additives and leaving no residue.
