I depotted one Milani this morning using a flat iron and 2 sheets of greaseproof paper. Turn the e/s upside down on top of greaseproof paper, place another sheet on top then press down with hot iron until plastic melts slightly, then push out.

OMG I wwas depotting my Milani eyeshadows yesterday and I thought o doing the exact same thing with the pushpin..but I was scared because I thought I would brak the eyeshadow...so I ended up using a blowdryer and a knife..well, I broke the tip of the knife and one of my eyeshadows ended up breaking anyways...hahaha. Oh well.

Thanks so much for this method! It sounds really good.
By the way, what color Milani do you have in the picture? How does it look? Is it close to any Mac eyeshadow color? Thx.

This might be a really silly question but once you heat up whatever e/s you're depotting how do you guys get the extra glue off the pan? So far I've only depotted one e/s but I found it really hard to get rid of the glue (I certainly don't want my depotted e/s to be glued to the palette!) since there was lots and lots of it :confused: Help!

Ouchie, my fingers hurt. lol. The pushpin didn't work (might have been too short), so I used a paperclip and had to push really hard to get my Milani Storm out. It worked and now it's in a palette. That was easy! Thanks for sharing.
