depotting blushcremes?

[mzreyes]

Has anyone depotted a blushcreme? Is that even advisable? lol! I've only depotted e/s and powder blushes using the candle method. Well actually I use a lighter.. I'm asking because there are some blushcremes at the CCO and I want to get them, but I want them to be in a pallete. Those pots take up too much space!

I tried to depot my blushcremes the same way I depotted my e/s, but they MELTED!!! stupid me

Do not depot them...I agree...they will melt. keep them in their pans

I could have sworn that I someone posted a thread on here where she didnt use heat to depot stuff.. or maybe I WISH I saw it. lol.. UGH!! I want cheap blushcremes!! hahahah.. yea I'm not even gonna try to depot them.. better safe than sorry!

I've tried to de-pot the creme liners and it was a DISASTER. It melted all over, spilling onto my hand, floor, etc.. despite being careful.



The screwy looking one (top row, center) is it.

You mean the freezer method? It doesn't work

nah i think she pryed (sp?) the pans out or something.

I've depotted blushcremes using the same method I use to depot eyeshadows - http://mac.larahill.com/depotting.htm

It's a high fast heat, so the blush doesn't get a chance to outright melt. I stick an iceback underneath it to provide extra insurance against melting.

This question has been posted before*, and I've found Lara's method to work for me. I've depotted Maidenchat, Brit Wit and Lune with no problems of melting. There was a scare, tho, since Lune had more glue than the others!

*search isn't working for me, I'll see if I can find it 2mo.
