My bad ladies if there is a category or thread already started for depotting I only searched the face in cosmetics threads.
Anyhow I ordered a z palette a depotting tool (which tbh the thread that started a little while ago about cutting open tube got me going) as I have the too faced book of bronzers & haven't really used it because it's in a book put away to keep safe however I so want to use it but often forget about. The spatula I got is a z palette one & can be used for tubes of concealer,foundation & palettes. Tonight after a few weeks of searching how to depot the book of bronzers I successfully depotted (without breaking any ) the bronzers from its book which fits into a large z palette with room for more products so I've also added a few other bronzers I have. I can safely say I'm feeling quite satisfied with my accomplishment. Thanks for reading. :D

Just saw a photo of your bronzers on the wall. I've never deplotted before. I have an unfinished make up geek pallette to fill due to an order gone wrong. Maybe this could be an option for me. Well done Keri.

Good idea Keri. I also have that palette and while I love it, it's so awkard to use and doesn't even come with a big mirror since it's so big. I actually made myself start using it a few days ago and I am so loving the choc bronzer but before that it had been sitting around for a year untouched. It doesn't fit easily into where I keep my everyday makeup. I've been so nervous about depotting it though as I'd hate to break the bronzers up!

Hey Reeze it's a gorgeous but awkward palette huh? Trust me I'm the most impatient person ever & managed to it harm 1 bronzer by way of cracking it. I just cut up the back well cut a bit and pulled alot to ensure not piercing any pan. It was quite easy although the glue is very tacky so just be sure not to yank & tear the cardboard from the pan a but at the time so you don't fumble the pan. I want to hit pan on at least 1 of these bronzers soon

Awesome job Keri! You sound so proud of yourself. It is not something I have tried but I will think of you if I ever do this!

I like how neat and compact it looks, so handy. What does a depotting tool look like? I'm curious, because I've never heard of them till you mentioned them.
