How to Depot Lippies

Hi everyone! I'd like to show what I just did this Saturday morning.  You see, I have a few lipsticks that have gone to the pan. But I noticed, there's more down under. So I decided to depot them and I'd like to show you how. Forgive the quality of the picture because I am just using my phone to capture what I did. First and foremost, you will need these things:

1. Candle
2. Match or Lighter
3. Small knife with pointed edge
4. Spoon
5. Lipstick
6. Empty Pans
7. Paper towel



So, here's what I did:

1. Scoop the lipstick down to its level and put it on the spoon


2. Place the spoon on top of the lighted candle. Make sure you're an inch or more away because the fire might char your spoon and this will destroy your lipstick once you pour it. Also, swirl the spoon to spread heat.





3. That should how your lipstick will look. Remember, do not bring it to a boil as this may change the composition of your lipstick. Once it is all melted, pour it to the empty pan and let it cool.




 



So there! I hope this would help you in depotting your lipstick. This is just a very short and fun process. Just be very careful since you are dealing with heat and fire ÜÜ


ÜÜÜ stay happy everyone ÜÜÛ
