Saving Space with Z Palette


Unlike many other beauty bloggers and youtubers, I'm not blessed with a nice vanity or a makeup station area in the corner of the room. I'm just stuck with all of my makeup, skincare and perfume bottles all in the one desk along with other school junk and whatever stuff you put on the desk. So I do have limited space.
I remember hearing about the Z-Palette during the time I first started getting into makeup (I didnt have much makeup then) and being one of those "eyeliner only" type of girls I had no use to get one of them. As time went on and eyeshadows stacked up I knew it was time to get one of the Z Palettes.


I bought my Z Palette on The Makeup Box Shop for $21 and free shipping! And I cannot tell you the time it took to find the cheapest large z palette to buy from Australia. I recommend buying it from their website, cheapest one I found and... it accepts bank deposit! Though their service isnt that good since they didn't tell me when they got my payment or when they sent it so I thought they never received my payment. (I think it took around 2 weeks to get to me)


 The packaging for the Z Palette is actually really nice. They're very sturdy and the lid closes with that soothing noise of hearing a magnetic lid close together (like the naked palettes). It also comes in a range of other designs but I you'll have to get them on another website since The Makeup Box Shop doesnt supply the other designs. It fits about 28 MAC sized eyeshadows but you can put your powders, blush, bronzers or any product that has a tin base. 
They sell the dome palette which is like the Z Palette but with a deeper base so you can fit domed blushes and bronzers and also your makeup brushes, which I wish I couldve gotten since it's perfect for travelling.


When you buy the Z Palette it comes with 20 of their round metal stickers so for those eyeshadows that dont have a magnetic base, you can just stick one of those stickers at the bottom so it can magnetise to the palette.


Compared with the Beauty Style compact, the packaging is a whole lot better!

All of the Essence eyeshadows have a magnetic base just so you know!
I've saved so much space just from depotting all my single and quad eyeshadows into the one palette. It's definitely one of the things you should purchase if you need space in your makeup collection, also very handy if you put your everyday eyeshadows, powder, bronzers etc into that palette!

  2. I've seen this around and I think it's is such a good idea. I don't have a vanity or a dressing table. I do my makeup standing up in the bathroom lol

    1. Yes it's worth the spend! My mum does that too! I find that the bathroom mirror is a pain to get up close to so I prefer doing my makeup with a mirror on my desk
