So gather up all your broken treasures and lets get fixin'!
- 70% (or greater) rubbing alcohol
- Toothpick, small spoon/fork (crushing tool)
- any tool to use to press your broken pigments (a coin)
- paper towel
Step 1: Using your crushing tool, crush your pigment on its pan until it becomes a fine powder...make sure you don't have any chunks left behind
Step 2: Slowly pour a decent amount of rubbing alcohol on powdered pigment and constantly mix until all pigment is wet and you have a creamy consistency
Step 3: For 30 seconds or so, let the rubbing alcohol evaporate, then cover the pan with a paper towel and press on to the paper towel with your pressing tool to absorb most of the alcohol left behind
Step 4: Let your pan sit for 2-4 hours to ensure it is fully dry and ready to use
Step 5: And you're done!!
I hope you found this helpful!!
