Depotting mineralize products?

[mrstucker]

Can you depot these? Do they fit into the blush palette?

 

[YvetteJeannine]

No. If you look into the eyeshadow pot, they don't have a pan that holds them like the other MAC e/s's.

Also because of the domed shaped the lid on the palette wouldn't close

I'm fairly certain if you tried depotting these, they would break apart!!! I don't recommend it at ALL.

ITA Allurabella,.. If they are made like the skinfinishes,.. (I have about finished a Porcelain Pink!) then they are baked onto a little platform type thing in the pot,.. I can imagine if you try to remove them they will come off in pieces. They are too big for the e/s pan and too small for the blush pan,... Keeping mine in the pot and actually prefer using it (Heat/Element) as a skinfinish! Someone on here turned me onto that and it works great!!

Wow, I'm gonna try that too, thanks for the idea

they are baked on little terracotta tiles.
don't do it!

I saw a tester of the new duos that was used up all the way to the bottom, and it was baked onto metal. It was on a silvery surface.

Perhaps a combo of the two - they're baked in regular cosmetic pans that are baked on terracotta tiles.

 

[pugmommy7]

interesting, i still wouldn't do it!
p.s. lara, love the new avatar photo. i always thought you were a blonde for some reason? you could carry that off np!

I bet they could put out a special pan for the MSF's, since they have the metal pan on the bottom, it's prolly just glued to the plastic. But de-potting them is prolly more trouble than it's worth.

 

[gummybug]

Actually, I take that back. I think they are on terracotta. I saw another used up duo today and it didn't look like it was on metal. I think what happened the last time was that the one I saw was the black & white duo... so with the white shade and the shimmer and all, the bottom looked silvery. Sorry, folks!

depoting MAC mineralised blush? Can I ?

These mineralised blushes broke me this year, and now I got a new problem with them. I noticed they are not flat as the regular Mac blush. Can I depot it? will it fit the regular Mac six-blush palette?

Re: depoting MAC mineralised blush? Can I ?

No, you can't depot them. They will break if you try to because a) they have a dome at the top b) they are baked so they tend to break easily.
Your palette won't close.

Re: depoting MAC mineralised blush? Can I ?

From what i have read in other posts and blogs and such. the mineral blushes are baked into the case and do not have a pan. Some people have been successful... you might search for tutorials.... others have said they shatter when you depot. I also have heard that the blush pan will not shut with the depoted blushes in it. So due to all this I have never attempted it... Good luck if you try!!!

Re: depoting MAC mineralised blush? Can I ?

like the others have said, these are:

baked onto a groved base with no pan, so they can't be depotted. sometimes thru use the powder comes loose, but its just the bottom of the powder. there's nothing attatched to the bottom.

since they are domed, they won't fit into the palettes because the lid won't close.

you can't depot any mineralize product.

Many thanks!!

What to do with Mineralized E/S

I have so many of them. And they are getting on my last nerve, i can't stand them being in pots. I'd love to depot them, but not sure if they'd fit into the MAC blush palette. (I don't have a blush palette YET..) Does anyone know? And if they do not, is there are palette out there that they will?

Thanks!

Re: What to do with Mineralized E/S

You cannot depot mineralize e/s!! They were baked in the pot, you would destroy them.
