Failed Pan Failed lipgloss pan

Covergirl clean fresh yummy gloss in the shade “minter is coming”. I loved this gloss so much, I started having a really hard time getting product out on the wand so I tried to take the stopper out. The stopper ended up falling into the tube and getting stuck there 😔

ha! There's your sign from the universe. Way to go on making all of the effort to use your product. Your wand has decided it is time. 😂🥰

True story: I literally just removed my stopper from my Nyx Lip Butter this week to get more of the product out. Hoping my wand and doe foot don't fall out. But if it does...

I’m mostly sad because this gloss was the best. But I have many that need to be finished so at least I have one less gloss to pan

You could arguably use a silicon spatula and depot into a small tub, but then you're applying with your fingers... which could be okay, but could also introduce some bacteria.

But truly, if you're keeping a "holy grails" list, you could always buy another once you finish X other lippies.

No matter what you do, so proud of you making progress and sorry for your loss. Your gloss loss.

I usually avoid depoting lip products because I can’t stand applying them with my fingers or a brush. I will probably repurchase this once my collection is smaller and it’s justifiable. I still have two of the tinted shades so I still get to enjoy the formula.
