Video Transcript

"So I'll help you figure that out after this segment. Okay, great. Hi. Welcome. Today we're going to show you how to correct some things in your makeup bag. My name is Sylvia Russell and this is how you can fix broken makeup. Now I have here for you some samples of eye shadow. Now of course you can see that these have been used a whole lot. But they haven't begun to break. But if you take a look at my bronze color here you can see that its about to break any moment. So what I'm going to do is give you a few tips on how you can possibly correct that. What you'll want to do is you'll want to go ahead and get some alcohol out. Make sure that you have some q tips and maybe an eye dropper to help distribute the alcohol properly. Go ahead and take a few drops of alcohol and place it in to the broken foundation, concealer, whatever it is that you have that you're trying to fix. Once you've done this take your q tip ans stir it very well. Until you get a pasty consistency. Next thing you want to do is find something with a nice clean edge maybe a knife or a spatula. Once you've created your pasty consistency you can go ahead and smooth it out, let it dry overnight. It may not look the best but you'll definitely save your eye shadow or your concealer and you can reuse it again. My name is Sylvia Russell and this is how you can fix your broken makeup."
