While doing my makeup recently, I dropped my blush compact, and it shattered into a million pieces. Not wanting to admit defeat, I picked up the pieces that I could and searched for a way to fix it. I ended up finding this tutorial. With a couple tweaks, I was easily able to restore my compact to its original form. 

What You'll Need:
-Broken compact
-Rubbing Alcohol
-Makeup brush
-3-4  Q-tips
-Small flat bottomed item (I used a small piece of wood)
-Sheet of plastic (not shown)
-Plastic bag


1. Start with a broken compact


2. Put broken pieces of compact into a plastic bag. Break up pieces into a powder.


3. Pour the powder back into the compact.


4. Place sheet of plastic (I used saran wrap) over the compact. Using a flat bottomed item, press the powder into the compact until flat.


5. Pour around 8-10 drops of rubbing alcohol onto the powder in the compact. Allow 10-15 minutes for the alcohol to evaporate.


6. Clean the sides of the compact.


7. The final product all nice and pretty!
