How to Repair a Broken Lipstick
One problem that women always have about their make-up kit is a broken lipstick. There are times when we can’t prevent this from happening.

Before doing anything, make sure to have a clean workspace. Put paper towels or any covering on the workspace area. As much as possible, wear gloves so that you won’t have to make a mess in your hands. There are some who prefer to use tissue, but unlike gloves tissue can stick to your lipstick making more mess. It is advised that you wear thin, disposable gloves to make it easier for you to move and it will not stick to your lipstick. Then stand the base of your lipstick upright on the table. If the base of your lipstick has only little left, you can still use your lipstick by simply mashing the broken lipstick to the base and just use a lip brush when applying it. Twist your lipstick to its maximum. Then take a match or lighter. Lit it then carefully run it underneath the base where your lipstick was broken. You can also slightly melt the area of the broken piece where they will be attached. Remember not to melt too much the lipstick.

Then put your lipstick inside the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to cool your lipstick into a whole. Clean up you area. Your lipstick can be used again.
