My First Attempt at Depotting MAC Eyeshadows

I know there are a million tutorials on the internet for this exact thing, but I thought I'd share my experience with my followers! I also know I can't be the only person who had never done this before, so maybe someone will find this useful.

You'll need:

• A knife 
• A lighter/candle 
• Tweezers or some kind of grip
• Magnetic stickers (if wanted) 
• Somewhere to store your eyeshadows once their depotted

Step 1: You'll see a small line where the eyeshadow sits inside of the pot. This is where you want to wiggle the knife around until the eyeshadow pops out!

Step 2: Using the tweezers, hold the eyeshadow over a flame until the plastic on the bottom is slightly melted.

Once the bottom is melted slightly, you'll poke the shadow out of the bottom of the pot!

Step 3: Let the bottoms of the shadows cool before placing the magnetic stickers on them. I skipped this step for now, but I plan to go back later and add them!

Step 4: Place the eyeshadows in their new case and you're done! 

Hope this helped somebody! What eyeshadows do you have in your palette?
