HOW TO: REPRESS MATTE EYESHADOWS WITHOUT ALCOHOL or How To: fix a broken eyeshadow

[@Gloomy_Goober]

Something I do to get the corners packed down is I cover the shadow with a tissue and stamp a stiff brush onto it over and over. Seems to help a lot

[@annabennetmakeup]

Ooooh that's a great idea!! 😊 thanks for sharing! 😉

[@Gloomy_Goober]

@@annabennetmakeup no problem! ☺️

I've been dry pressing mattes a lot lately. I grind with a pestle and morter and then make a mound, and then plop an empty container on top and give it a good press. Then i push another pan or a magnetic sticker into the pressed shadow and push hard. It works like a charm and is done in one go! Downside is it only works for single shadows, not palettes. I'll try your way for a palette and see how it goes.

Oh wow! 😍 I thought about getting a morter but I wanted to find a way without needing anything else than my depotting tool and a plastic card! 😊

I’ve just subscribed after seeing this fantastic video! Thank you for sharing ❤️ I love frankening shades, and dry pressing mattes is new to me and opens a whole new world of possibilities !

[@annabennetmakeup]

Aaaw thank you so much! So glad you found me! 🥰

Interesting! I tried to repress a matte shadow with alcohol and it ruined the texture, so I'm going to try this method. Thank you

[@annabennetmakeup]

you're welcome! I hope it works for you!

Would it be easier to just pop out the intact pan before removing the shadows?

[@franzi8953]

So what did you do with the overflow of the mixed shadows? The new purple turned out really well. I love frankening too

[@annabennetmakeup]

The purple turned out really nice 😊 I didn't do anything with the overflow!

Wow, the "new" Sultry palette looks gorgeous!
