I too am a lover of vintage compacts. It is very easy to bring them bang uptodate if you refill them with COLLECTION 2000 Bronzing Powder/or Blusher! I also use MAX FACTOR Bronzing Powder. The refills fit Strattons perfectly and they bring the compacts up to the 21st century. I keep mine in my makeup bag together with my lovely facebrush!

How about repair and restoration of vintage lipstick holders or sale of vintage lipsticks. I have searched high and low and cant find any. Im avid fan of vintage makeup,

Do you have a list of modern make-up powders (both pressed and loose) that would go with the compacts you sell? Also, please add extra photographs of the interiors of the compacts so that we can have a more complete idea of what the compact looks like. Thank you.

I have had my compact since it was given to me as an 18 th birthday present. So when it was dropped and the mirror was broken, I was heartbroken.
Having found The Compact
Clinic, it took me many days to get the courage to post my compact over the Irish Sea to be repaired, I am so very glad I did, and within days my compact had been repaired and returned.
I cannot thank and praise Geoff so much. Thank you.
