A few weeks ago in my TRAVEL TIP #32, I introduced to you the Z-palette to manage your makeup when traveling. Well, there’s a new kid on the block: the UNII Palette. This palette fulfills the same purpose as the Z-palette but is different in many ways. Here are some of its best attributes:
– It’s made of really sturdy plastic and snaps shut to better protect your products.
– It comes in different colors: pomegranate, turquoise, crystal, midnight and more.
– It comes with a sheet of adhesive magnets you can cut to size and write on, which is quite convenient.
– It can fit different sizes of makeup pans.
– It has a removable rubber gasket and steel plate inside, which makes it easy to clean.
– It comes with a large mirror.
– It ships for FREE to the US and Canada
When I compare this palette to the Z-palette, I have to say that I like the UNII palette but I wish it had a clear cover and came in different sizes / depths to better fit my needs. The UNII palette is also slightly more expensive than the Z-palette but is made of durable plastic while the Z-palette is made of cardboard. Basically, when it comes to versatility the Z-palette wins but as for durability the UNII palette can’t be beat. So before purchasing one of these palettes I recommend you decide what is most important to you: versatility or durability.
Again, don’t forget to recycle your empty containers once you’re done depotting your makeup products. If your containers are from MAC Cosmetics, they will give you a free lipstick or eyeshadow, of your choice, for every 6 containers you return to their store!
Psst… this is HOW YOU DEPOT an eyeshadow.
