Steps to repair broken powder or blush

1. Gather all the spilled powder and return it to its original container.

2. Add 1 teaspoon of alcohol to the powder. The amount of alcohol will depend on the size and quantity of your makeup.

3. Use a toothpick to mix the alcohol and powder until it forms a paste.

4. Start by placing a paper towel onto the paste, followed by a cardboard piece. Press down firmly. The paper towel will soak up the alcohol and moisture. Lift the towel, then press the dry side onto the powder to absorb any remaining liquid.
