Broken Compact Quick Fix
We've all gone through that traumatic event of dropping our favorite bronzer, or blush, or that perfect shade of foundation that cost more than last months paycheck or was just impossible to find! Well it's okay, breath and take these simple steps to restore that compact!
1) It's quite simple really. Start by crushing up the rest of the compact into a fine powder. (I know it sounds traumatizing but it will be worth it)! We suggest covering the compact in saran wrap and crushing it with the blunt side of a makeup brush.

3) Use something smooth (ie. your finger, a popsicle stick, a small spatula) to smooth the mixture.
4) Let it sit for 24 hours and it will be good as new!

The College Girl's Quick Fix
Sometimes you just don't have the time or effort to get yourself all dazzled up for class. Maybe you had a long night of studying... or maybe you had a long night of not studying (we're not judging). Either way here are a few life-saving college essentials!
1) Liquid
foundation is the fastest and easiest way to even out the skin while covering
blemishes for a quick way to smooth out your face after a long night.
2)
Pink is among the most flattering colors; a pink or peachy blush will add
dimension and liveliness to the face.
3)
If you only have a limited amount of time in the morning, mascara should be at
the top of the list of things to apply. It will define the eyes and instantly
remove that groggy, sleepy look.
4)
If you’re looking for that extra sparkle without looking too done up for class,
a peachy lip gloss will fill out the lips and pull your look together.
Now you're classroom ready in record timing!
