Toss it or save it?

What shall I do with a broken shadestick?

Opened up my Lucky Jade shadestick a while ago and....

I haven't been able to decide what to do with it! Please help!

PROS:
It's an awesome colour. An awesome, discontinued colour.
It could be saved in some way?

CONS:
It's dried up and pulls at my lids when I apply it (pre breakage). When it does successfully apply, my eyelids look old-lady crepey - and I'm 20!
It's broken! How the heck am I going to use it now??

Also, I have 5 things ready for B2M. This would be number 6 if I chucked it or somehow depotted it (is that even possible?), so free lipstick! Yay! BUT I've also got a MAC Paint coming that I am planning to depot as well, so this doesn't NEED to be number 6. Anyway the nearest MAC store is an hour and a bit away, so I don't think I'll be cashing in my B2M just yet.

It looks pretty messed up to me. I personally wouldnt save it... If it was me, I'd just buy another one off ebay or the Clearance Bin here and use the broken one for B2M... But I'm pretty OCD about my makeup collection...

That's what I'm leaning towards... thanks!

You could just "depot it" into a screw top jar. When you want to apply it, heat it up a tad with a hairdryer to make it more smooth. Of course that is a lot of faffing.

Id save it...i Had a grease stick that all fell out and was in pieces to the point that i had to throw it out but yours looks to be pretty resuable or you can just depot it as one of the ladies suggested. either way its your decision!

i'd melt it down into a jar

I'd save it until you replace it. That way, if it takes awhile, or you're not able to, you won't be kicking yourself.

 

[littlepickle]

Thanks! I'll depot it then. How would I use it via the jar? Fingers, or a brush?

I vote for putting it in a little jar and then B2M the empty container! Its win win for you!

 

[littlepickle]

Hooray! Have depotted it. Not sure how I'm going to apply it, but yay for free lipsticks

Don't know when I'll next be in Auckland to go to a MAC counter, but at least I probably have a bit of time to save up empties

Exactly!

If it doesn't even look good when it's on, no sense in saving it
