STEP 2: Scoop Your Balm

Next, you’re going to grab a dime-size amount of the balm and place it on the back of your hand or on a makeup mixing palette. The balm is going to act as the liquid base for your new shadow. 

STEP 3: Add Your Shadow

Then, you’re going to gently scrape your shadow until it’s a loose powder. We recommend using a makeup spatula for this step so that you don’t ruin your eyeshadow. If you want your liquid shadow to be super pigmented, be sure to use more of the product. 

STEP 4: Mix It Together

Finally, mix the shadow into the balm with your flat shader brush to create an instant liquid eyeshadow. We recommend mixing until the consistency is smooth and like jelly. Once the shadow is seamlessly blended together, you’ve officially created your own DIY liquid shadow. Ta-da!
