DIY: How To Turn Your Broken Lipstick Into Lipgloss...



Argh!
That was the noise I made when I broke my favorite shade of lipstick. There is nothing worse than having a broken lippy in your handbag as you know it is going to go absolutely everywhere when you're trying to put it on. But fear not! I have an uber quick tutorial to show you how to save your expencive make up from the bin. . . and your purse from the makeup counter too!


Simply scoop your broken lipstick out the tube and pop it into a microwavable pot.

Add in a dollop of Vaseline or if you have some of the good stuff kicking about, 8 Hour Cream.

Pop them in the microwave for a few seconds until they are both melted.

Mix together then let it rest for a little while...

*TaDa*
All potted up and good to go ... our mothers and bank managers will be so proud!
So remember, next time you batter your lippy don't chuck it, just melt it...
Aaaand if you mix a couple of different colours together you can create a brand new shade that's just for you! Or if you add in lots more Vaseline you can make it a light lip tint instead of a solid colour gloss... Versatile AND stylish, right?!
And we still plenty of time left over to paint our nails...
Enjoy ladies!
