No matter how hard I try,Cheap NFL Jerseys,Cheap Louis Vuitton Outlet Store, I’m awful when it comes to controlling how much product I use with my loose powder jars.
It’s not like I’m devoid of muscle control,Coach Outlet Stores, or like I’m shakin’ the jars like a Polaroid picture.
I don’t know, but every time I gently shake a jar to load the sifter tray,Cheap Jerseys, mayhem ensues; powder gets everywhere,wholesale Jerseys china, and I’m sent down the same product-wastin’ path…
The wastefulness starts with the excess of powder in the tray. It’s why my brush gets overloaded with powder, which I end up blowing off or tapping away when I go to dilute the brush before application.
A lot product gets wasted in the process, and that makes me kind of cranky.
Makeup McGyver!I finally found a way to doctor those jars of loose powder to cut back on waste.
It’s a cheap and easy trick that takes less than three minutes to do,Saturday Surfing_19, and it makes it easier to control the amount of powder that feeds through those built-in sifters, consequently reducing the amount of product that gets lost to the wind.
What you’ll need- A jar of loose powder (the kind that comes with a sifter)
- Scotch Tape
- Q-Tips
First, create a clean surface for the tape by removing the powder from the holes in the sifter area with a Q-tip.
Next, grab a small piece of tape from the dispenser; place it on top of a few of the holes in the sifter.
Continue to cover up the holes with pieces of tape until you have just a few remaining. I usually leave about four uncovered, which allows just enough product — but not too much — to come through when I shake the jar.
All done. Now sit back and admire your genius!
Speaking of saving some bucks…
