So, I've been trying to get organized and regroup my makeup stash.  I've never depotted anything before because honestly I'm usually too lazy.  But depotting saves a whole lotta space and makeup obsessed people like me, need their space.
I was quite bored the other day, the son was napping and the hubs was working so I decided to start my depotting experience.  Now, I'm going to show you my second one because the first one I set a little on fire, but it still came out okay.
This is how I depotted my 2 MAC eye shadows.  (I have a lot more to go)

|  | 
| Start with your eyeshadow (DUH!) | 
|  | 
| Pry off the top insert | 
|  | 
| This is what it should look like | 
|  | 
| Get lighter and hold it a few inches from the bottom of the insert.  Of course ignite the flame. Hold until you see underside melting | 
|  | 
| This is what the bottom looks like | 
|  | 
| Use a tool to prick through the bottom to loosen the pan.  Remove the pan insert completely | 
|  | 
| Glue at the bottom of the pan can be removed if you like | 
|  | 
| Tools used | 
Now the one thing I forgot to buy are magnets in order to set these in my palette.
Well that's all folks!  Let me know if there is a different or more efficient way to depot.  And let me know how to B2M these things!
Bye for now
