Getting started on Day 1 of
Mission: Free Eyeshadow
Tools You Need:
- palette
- magnetic tape
- scissors
- something sharp, like a knife
- a flame
- tweezers
- magnetic tape
First Thing:
Pry the plastic that encases the eyeshadow out of the container with your knife.
Be careful! Just stick it in the crevasse and wiggle it, it will pop out easily.
Step Two:
You need to use the tweezers to hold the plastic over the flame.
The plastic has to melt a little and bubble enough that you can press your knife through it.
(to pop the eyeshadow pan out of the plastic casing)
Just a little bit longer.......
Step Four:
Using the knife, or your scissors, press the melty plastic until you pop the eyeshadow pan out.
Leave the pan upside down, because you will want to place the label on the back.
Step Five:
Hold the original plastic container over the flame at an angle to loosen the glue on the label.
Once you see a little bubbling of air under the label, use the tweezers to get in the crack and peel it off.
Step Six:
Using your tweezers, peel the label off of the plastic and place it on the pan
Because this shadow was a free Back to MAC shadow, the lady wrote on the label. Booo!
Step Seven:
Cut a little bit of the magnetic tape to place on the bottom of the pan.
Don't cover up the name though!
Hmm... where to put it in the palette.....
I separated the shadows into "colorful" and "neutral" palettes.
