I got her a Maybelline powder foundation, and putting it in was a breeze as I had bought a refill pack and I didn't have to pop the product off a case or canister. And there it is.
Getting the blush out of this palette was the biggest challenge. I had bought two of these, one for me and one for her. The one I got for her broke as I was taking it out. My own blush had already been used several times and would definitely not be a good present for someone. My blush is the one in the photo and you can probably see the shape getting flattened already.
So to salvage the badly broken blush I immediately bathed the blush pan in a lot of rubbing alcohol. Rubbing alcohol makes it pasty but is at the same time easy to evaporate so the makeup dries up in a few minutes. While it was in a pasty state, I used this rubber stamp I got from the States a year ago to emboss a shape onto the broken blush. I'm thankful that I have a stamp that's of the same size as the blush! I bought this stamp in a set of stamps and I actually didn't pay attention to this one. Helpful after all...
And of course I got stamping and this is what happened. The results aren't exactly perfect, but at least it's more presentable than giving something with a large gaping crack. And it looks kinda rustic, doesn't it? Like country fair-ish?
