Written by Urvi DalalJul 13, 2020
If you’re a makeup junkie ( just like us) then you’d totally understand when we say that buying a new eyeshadow palette is like a major event. The thought of using it to create innumerable eye looks makes us go weak in the knees.
But when that eyeshadow palette breaks, it inevitably ends up breaking our heart into a million pieces, no kidding. But, with a few smart hacks, it is totally possible to repurpose a broken eyeshadow palette and use it in ways you might have never even imagined. Curious, aren’t you? Read on to find out four genius ways to repurpose a broken eyeshadow palette.
Glossy eye makeup is all the rage right now, and guess what? A broken eyeshadow makes creating this look really simple and hassle-free. All you need to do this mix a pinch of the broken shadow with a drop or two of baby oil and apply it using a brush. That’s it! Your stunning glossy eye makeup look is ready!
02. As a nail polish
A broken eyeshadow palette provides you with the perfect opportunity to create multiple new nail polish colours. Finely crush the shades you want to use and add it to a bottle of clear nail polish and give it a good shake. Allow it to rest for a couple of hours and your customised nail polish is good to be used.
03. As an eyeliner
Another great way to use a broken eyeshadow is to use it as an eyeliner. Simply crush the eyeshadow to a fine powder and add a few drops of baby oil and mix them together until you have a lump-free, gel eyeliner-like consistency. Apply this with an angled eyeshadow brush and apply it on your lash line or use it to create graphic eyeliner looks.
04. As a lip gloss
To use your broken eyeshadows as a lip gloss is pretty simple. All you need is the Vaseline Original Pure Skin Jelly and finely crushed eyeshadow and finely powdered eyeshadow. Mix the two together, depending on the pigment you want and you’ve got yourself a whole new lip product right there.
