Depotting stila shadows?

iheartcolor · 03-09-2008, 02:20 PM #1 (**permalink**)

Has anyone successfully depotted a stila eyeshadow from it's paper case? I have some shadows (older ones) that you could purchase where they came in the paper case. I want them out!

Thanks!

I have one, and I haven't figured out a way either. The only thing I can see is destroying the cardboard, but I'm not sure how you'd do that without potentially shattering the shadow.

I miss these paper cases, actually. I haven't figured that out either. Maybe cutting it with a razor blade and prying it apart? I would need to look at mine and get back to you.

Thanks gals! I am afraid to try it....I don't want to ruin any of them, but man I *really* want to put them in a palette!

Okay so I have one that I just freed! It was already a bit loose so I had an easier time than normal I expect. There is quite a bit of adhesive on the bottom of the pan. I used an Exacto-Knife blade (be careful!) to get it out.

Now I am feeling brave and want to try it on another one!
