Session Expectations

Repressing products is the most time-intensive part of the condensing process. On average, up to 50 presses can be completed during a 2-hour session. Smaller products such as eyeshadows and blushes typically count as one press, while larger powders can produce doubles which count as two. To save time, some artists choose to repress only a portion of the product and pack the remaining product separately.

Depotting products from their original packaging is generally a faster process, which allows us to work through a higher volume of products during the session.

Products Not Recommended for Repressing

I do not recommend repressing shimmers, glitters, highlighters, and baked products. I recommend leaving these out for your first session. Depotting can be the alternative option if the product sit inside a metal pan.
