Crush the broken shadow into a fine pigment in a plastic bag. Then put back into a container and put a little bit of rubbing alcohol in the container with the shadow. Wait till the eyeshadow dries a little bit and wrap a quarter in an old tee shirt and press the eyeshadow/ rubbing alcohol mixture down in to the container till its flat and even. Make sure it's almost dry before you press. Wait a couple o days before you use it.

Use a professional mixer by MAC or Maqpro. Please don't use anything else as it may cause skin irritations and cloud your eye!
