I hope I will be brave enough in my next vacations to start it.

Thank you all for thinking so positive about depotting!

i loved it when i did my first big depot - twas about 30 shadows and 6 blushes i think.

it was awesome taking my empties to the mac store and getting free lippies!

have fun doing it!

Depotting is ok, I don't particularly love or hate it. But I do hate removing the glue at the base of the metal pan though, I'm just very anal about it and I have to have every single trace of glue removed before I will even pop it into my palette, so the removal part can be pretty tedious for me.

^ I don't like the glue either, that's why I prefer Pro Palettes. But I want more free stuff so I need to start buying in the pot again

My counter got these shadows in! They weren't expected to get them-at least when I visited last week. I picked up Lucky Green. After swatching Atlantic Blue (beautiful in the pot-grayish blue on my hand), Free to Be and Sunny Spot, LG was probably the one that would get the most wear. IMO, I had Warm Me Up l/s on my hand and Free to Be was similar in color to that...definitely pink on my skin.

So exciting! How fitting that your first ever MAC palette would be full of gorgeous vibrant shades.

Depotting is fun!

I recommed depotting without heat - easy, quick, not messy and no worry of breathing the chemicals with the heat system!

I depotted tons and tons in no time. But whenever I can, I prefer buying the pro refill pans, there's plenty of depotting with le e/s!

The only thing stopping me from depotting is finding the round peel and stick magnets

I have everything else ready

Just buy magnet sheets from walmart

I just use the pots themselves to create the round shape

 

[TeresitaMC]

Thanks hun!

I never go there cause it's so busy

I know I never go to Walmart either, i hate how busy it is and also I just don't agree with their stores in sooo many levels. But I made an exception for the magnets. They'll last u a long time. i bought mine two years ago for depoting purpose and still have plenty left

Depotting is addictive... at least for me!!

I depot them with my flat iron too. It's so easy and quick... I have them on the iron less than 30 secs and no fumes...yet!! Some how, the glue never messes up and I'm left with enough to get the magnet on. Then, a bit more heat to the container, 10 secs at most, and I can peel off the sticker with the name and finish. Really easy, neat and quick!!!

So I've only been really using pre-made quads and a few eyeshadows that haven't been depotted. BUT, I also did b2m for TONS of lipsticks, so I don't regret it!

Oh yes!! Free lippies are the best. I wish I could B2M for eyeshadows, as I'm more fond of MAC eyeshadows than MAC lippies. Well, I'm more fond of eyeshadows than lippies to be honest.
