  • Thanks for this tutorial this was really helpful!

    Do you think this would work for the Kat Von D cream eyeshadows from the eyeshadow palettes?

  • @PinkSnob23 The tip should work for all cream shadows. But just to be sure, take a small big of the dried up cream shadow and try it out. Don't want you to ruin your entire cream shadow if it doesn't work. Good luck!!

  • hi! i'm from mac_cosmetics~

    would this work on stila smudge pots?

  • @skarvika Hi!! They would work but you just have to be really careful of how much you put in. Also, the addition of any ingredients will dilute the formula a bit so it won't be as long lasting, but it was be definitely easier to work with and creamier.

  • my cream shadow is new and it is completely pulles away from the edges! what does this mean? helppp

  • if you use like urban decay al nighter spray?

  • @stevoulina69 you can use Visine eye drops.

  • @PinkSnob23 that is EXACTLY why i came to this video, my metal orchestra palette silver creme shadow dried up

  • of course it is not pulling away from the edges anymore... you pressed it back in there with your finger... as you can see throughout the video: the spray and the cream did not mix. you could swirl your finger in therefor days and it still would not mix since that creme is silicone based....

  • max fix+ is a setting spray... wont it dry up the cream more? idk maybe its just easier to put glycerin based medium on it to put the moisture and lock it in... or maybe fix+ does work.. :D

  • @fionaman OK thanks I will try this! : )

  • Thank you so much! I have a MAC paint pot that this happened to, and I basically wrote it off.
