Don’t panic when the powder cake is broken. The makeup restorer can help you flatten it again.

On June 15th, Jimu journalists searched online and found that there were many makeup restoration videos on social platforms, and some people started makeup restoration business. A plate of smashed powder cake could be brought back to life around 20 yuan. If you don’t like the color of lipstick, you can also give it to a makeup restorer to re-color.

However, some insiders reminded that since most of the makeup repairs are sent for repair, it is impossible to know whether the repair tools of the merchants are disinfected in place. Consumers should be cautious when choosing makeup repair services to avoid skin problems caused by pollution of cosmetics during the repair process.

Bloggers share cosmetics repair

20 yuan can repair a powder cake.

Searching for "make-up repair" on the online shopping platform, many related product links appeared, and the highest one sold more than 600 orders. Not only can you repair the broken powder, eye shadow tray and broken and melted lipstick, but you can also customize cosmetic packaging and color change services. Merchants also attached pictures before and after repair to the front page of the store: a completely broken powder cake, which was as good as ever after repair.

Jimu journalists consulted a number of shops and learned that the price of repairing a makeup is generally in 20 yuan-30 yuan. Customers send the makeup that needs to be repaired to the merchants by express delivery, and the merchants send it back after repairing it. The round-trip freight is borne by the merchants, and it can be repaired in a day or two without transportation time.

Broken powder cake

"How much is it to repair this broken powder cake?" As a consumer, the reporter sent a picture of a broken powder cake to a store customer service for inquiry. The customer service of the store said that it costs 22.8 yuan to repair a powder cake, no matter what brand of powder cake, it is the same price. If you send more than one powder cake together for repair, you can get a discount, and each one is cheaper than 3 yuan.

The above-mentioned customer service said that not all cosmetics can be repaired, depending on the degree of damage. If the damage is too serious, there is nothing we can do. "The degree of repair can only be more than 90%. If we pursue perfection, we may not be satisfied. Before placing an order, we need customers to record videos of the items to be repaired in all directions, and we will also remind customers to keep their makeup brushes, powder puff, baffle flannel bags and so on, and only send the items that need to be repaired. Both parties will confirm the condition of the items before sending them, so as to avoid unnecessary disputes.

Some merchants also said that multi-color eye shadow makeup does not accept repair, mainly for fear of shock and color mixing during transportation. "Solid colors are better to repair, and it is difficult to separate them when they are mixed together. In addition, lipstick is better to repair, because lipstick is tubular and solid." Customer service introduction of a makeup repair shop.

Choose makeup repair service carefully.

Not long ago, Xiaoyu, a student of Wuhan University, sent a four-color eye shadow tray for repair. "The eye shadow tray was newly bought at a cost of more than 200 yuan. I haven’t used it very much. I fell off the table in the dormitory. I wanted to press it again myself, but it was a bit broken." Xiaoyu said that she remembered that she had seen a makeup repair video on the Internet before, so she searched it. I didn’t expect to find many shops.

Xiaoyu chose a shop with high sales volume, negotiated the price and sent the eye shadow tray to her. "I received a brand-new eye shadow tray three days later, and I couldn’t see any broken marks at all." Xiaoyu said that now, if you buy a big-name eye shadow tray casually for at least two or three hundred yuan, the powder cake will be more expensive. "If you break it, you can’t use it. How painful it is. As long as you repair it for twenty or thirty yuan, many people will definitely choose to do it."

How to operate the repair process? Mr. Xiang, who works part-time as a makeup restorer, told a journalist that first of all, tools such as grinder, heating furnace, sterilizer, cleaning machine and mold are needed. Powder repair is mainly to use tools to break and re-platen, paste repair is to melt and reshape, and liquid repair is mainly to replace containers. "Under normal circumstances, cosmetic repairs are purely physical repairs on the original products, and nothing else will be added. However, there are also some special circumstances that need to add accessories, and we will inform customers in advance. "

"I didn’t know makeup before, but I was doing watch repair. At first, I saw a video of someone else doing makeup repair on Tik Tok, which was very interesting. I gradually became interested, and then I bought various tools to study." Mr. Xiang said, I remember that the technology was not in place at the beginning, and the customer’s makeup box was crushed and it cost hundreds of yuan to compensate the box.

"At that time, I also had the idea of giving up. After all, I didn’t make much money. Later, I slowly summed up my experience and practiced my hands. Now a makeup can be repaired in about 20 minutes. Of course, the difficulty is different and the time spent is different." Mr. Xiang said that he has invested tens of thousands of yuan in repairing equipment alone. Although the current order volume is average, there are only a dozen orders a day, he is optimistic about this market prospect.

However, a senior makeup brand practitioner said that makeup repair is actually not as simple as it looks. Big brands have quite strict standards and requirements on the production conditions of cosmetics, and it must be a sterile environment to ensure that cosmetics are not polluted. "Makeup repair can really solve the problem of accidental damage to cosmetics, which is a good thing for many makeup lovers. But at present, there is no relevant standard in this emerging industry, and there may be some chaos. For example, at present, most makeup repairs are sent for repair, and it is impossible to know whether the repair tools of the merchants are disinfected in place. If the repair environment and tools are not up to standard, the total number of cosmetic colonies may exceed the standard, and consumers may cause skin problems in subsequent use. It is also impossible to know whether the merchants have added other substances. Consumers must be cautious when choosing makeup repair services. "
