Mac Lipstick Palette

As much as I love my MAC lipsticks, one thing I find very frustrating is that the packaging all looks the same! The more my lipstick collection grew, it became increasingly difficult to find the lipstick I wanted when on a makeup job or doing my own makeup. I have been waiting for this palette for so long. I attempted this with a Muji palette a couple of years ago but gave up after things got a little messy!

So basically, this palette holds 24 lipstick colours all in the same place. How convenient! This is great for any of you makeup artists out there, it makes everything so much quicker. Not to mention lightening the load of your kit! Or even if you aren't a makeup artist but just have a huge collection of lipsticks that you would like to see all in one place for easy access. 

My own personal favorites that I use all the time I haven't melted down as I like to have the lipstick I'm wearing in my bag for top ups during the day. And obviously you cant lug this massive pallet around can you!

What you need: An empty lipstick palette, A spoon, A Candle, Lipsticks, Lots of tissues!

Before you do anything, make sure you clean and sanitize all your lipsticks before melting them in to the palette! This is so important to kill all the germs or bugs that may be lurking on your lipsticks.

Each section of the palette holds just over half of your lipstick. Cut a little off at a time just to be sure not to over fill.

Place it on to the spoon and hold over the candle. Be aware that the different textures melt differently. For instance Creme D'nude (Creamsheen) melted within a few seconds where as Ruby Woo (Retro Matte) took over a minute.

Be careful not to let the lipstick bubble as this can change the colour/texture of the lipstick.

Once the lipstick is completely melted, gently pour in the the palette.  It only takes a couple of minutes to set so make sure not to move the palette till its set so it doesn't spill out.

And its as simple as that.

Make sure you write down all the names of the lipsticks and the textures and label it so you don't forget the names!
