I finally depot my Urban Decay book of shadow IV. I was
choosing between UNII palette and Z palette and I thought the UNII palette was
more durable. I like the fact that the Z palette has a clear cover, but I’d
prefer a huge mirror.
The colors I have are lavender and crystal.
I have all the neutral shades in the lavender one and the
rest in the other one. I should have placed the neutrals in the crystal to
color match, but I love the lavender color so much that I’d rather use it every
day.
The palette is already magnetized which means metal pans can
stick to it without extra magnet sheet. It is very thoughtful of the company to
include a magnet sheet in case that some pans are made of aluminum.
For size reference, I place it together with the NARS Laguna bronzor
and the naked palette.
A quick tip! I cut the name from the original palette and
tape it to the corresponding eye shadow, so I know exactly what shade I am
using if I want to.
Is the UNII palette worth the money?
In my opinion, it is. I spend quite some money on palettes
and I really wish to get more uses out of them, but bulky packaging stops me
from doing so. Now with the UNII palette I can depot whatever shade I like and use it daily. Besides, I can see myself traveling with the UNII palettes. They
are sturdy with hard plastic. On the top of that, they are cute!
