So I got Wonderful this week and it is so wonderful

The problem is, that I have all my blushes in a palette (well multiple palettes haha) and I thought, well, I'll just scoop this into my palette also. So I used a butter knife to take it out and wow it filled the entire 44mm tin to the top! but after i did this, I realized: umm this is going to dry out!!

I always keep my palette closed so I'm hoping that helps keep it creamy..has anyone used the cream blushes after theyve dried? Are they still wearable? I'm thinking maybe with a bit of mixing medium I can continue to apply it even after it dries out?

I don't think you made a super big mistake. I left one open on the counter for weeks and weeks to see what would happen, and it does dry out a little, but the formula does have quite a bit of camellia oil in it, so it should always be sorta creamy. If it does ever get to a point where it gets a little crumbly either a little bit of oil, or something silicone should soften it back up. The recipe uses cyclomethicone- and that's normally what hair shine sprays are made out of. Just be careful because some versions of cyclomethicone are super volatile (not the one that we use but the INCI is the same).
