DIY Mini Rollerballs


So I've been on an indie perfume kick lately if you have not noticed, and samples are the way to go if you're new to the perfume scene. However, using the samples can be quite annoying, as some don't have little spreaders on the lids or are just a pain to open. So I decided to buy some little rollerballs to put my favorite samples into, to encourage myself to use them more often! Here's what you're going to need should you decide to do this project too:
  • Alcohol to disinfect everything (70% will do!)
  • Baby rollerballs (I got mine here, they are 1 mL)
  • Perfume sample (I used one I wouldn't mind screwing up)
  • Bitty funnel (check out that listing, it comes with!)
  • Dropper (dat listing tho)
  • Surface to work on (paper plate FTW)
I picked Sixteen92's Lolita to work with, as I have two samples of the perfume oil, and I already ordered an EdP of the scent, so I wouldn't mind if I spilled this everywhere or royally screwed this entire project up. But anyway - onwards!

Adventures in Depotting


When I went to IMATS, I picked up a black z-palette with the intent of depotting my Sugarpill quads. I finally got around to doing just that, and I decided to document my process! I've only ever depotted one other palette before (the super clunky Urban Decay Vice palette) so I thought it would be neat to see the process once it's all done. Please excuse the crappy carpet, we rent.
