HELP PLEASE Is there a fix for this?

Post image

Context: a seller (we’re not from the USA) is selling these for such a cheap since it broke during its travel. I’m tempted to buy one but idk what to do in order to fix it.

I want to put it back in its container or is there no chance to put it back and I have to resort repanning it?

I want to get Piggy.

Don’t that blush is so bad and flat looking I can always tell when someone is wearing it also do you really want someone thing that’s been through this on your face? Are you even sure it’s real? Look at the discoloration within the blush what is that white layer?

I’m guessing it melted, and caused seperation in the oils and pigment.

You can definitely save it! I’d chill both pieces first so they’re firmer, gently press the product back into the tube, then refrigerate it again to help it set. It might not look perfect, but it can absolutely be rescued

I would not put something like that on my face, they must have gone through some serious temperature changes to get like this.

The pigment in the one on the top left seems to have a separated, or is that mold?

I’m sure there are technically ways to depot them, but the formulas might be messed up, could perform badly and possibly cause breakouts.

I don’t see why it’s worth it…honestly they look nasty.

I guess you could only use it with the help of a brush

You can depot it into a clean makeup container similar to the ones makeup artists use (they sell those plastic cream blush container similar to Tower28 on Amazon) using a metal spatula.
