So...I was really stoked to see the Z-Palette for Sephora dealio. I have a few MAC eyeshadows and thought it was about time to jump into depotting.

I knew there would be a learning curve, so I was prepared to fix any eyeshadows I messed up. I was not prepared, however, to find that my Extra Dimension Eyeshadows do not have metal pans. What the what?!

So in the process of warming up the pan and gently prying out the eyeshadow, imagine my surprise to find THIS.

It took me two to realize that I really don't want to mess up the others. I think I overheated the pan and it melted the plastic pan on the bottom of my A Natural Flirt shadow. My other one, Ready to Party, is still intact.

Did I just miss the memo that Extra Dimension shadows don't have metal pans?

I'm a sad panda. T___T

For now, I just stuck it back into the original plastic case. I'll probably try to get it into a metal pan to put in the palette since the original pan to hold it is ruined. It just sucks that it happened and I feel like I ruined it.
