UNII palette

I am crazy about palettes, so when I read about
the UNII palette on beautiful Andi's blog, I ordered one straight away! Today I received it and I'm crazy about it and here is why:
  • It is magnetized so you can place your Mac eyeshadows, blush, bronzer, concealer - or basically anything in it.
  • It comes with a sheet of magnets with double sided tape, to place under the makeup you have depotted
  • It comes with a big mirror! Double Yey for that one!!
  • It's SO pretty!!!
  • It's small and convenient to travel with!
  • It looks and feels quality and not just cheap plastic
  • It comes in many many colors to chose from! Yey!
  • It's SO pretty!! (did I say that?)
  • It's smaller than the Mac palette, but can hold 14 Mac eyeshadows (Mac takes 15)
It costs more than the Mac palette, but you are paying for better quality and a really really pretty packaging, so in my opinion it is worth it.

As a makeup artist I don't know if I would switch out all my Mac palettes with these, simply because I would be super scared of breaking them (because they're so pretty!) and they are slightly smaller than the Mac one. But I definitely want several of them for my own personal makeup! (I have ordered more!)
If you get 3 different colors you can have one for your favorite nudes, smokey eyes and a bridal palette/daytime colors.

The UNII website is so nice too! They even have a gallery page where people have sent in pictures of what they have put in their Unii's. You have to see that! I'm so nosy and curious to see how others do things - so I love pictures like that!

1 palette costs $ 29 and 2 for $ 56.
The shipping was super fast even to Norway!


Here are some more pictures of my UNII:

Oh yay! I am so happy that you love it. The palette you created is so pretty :)
I agree, it feels so much more compact and substantial to travel with than the MAC palette, doesn't it? I love that about it. So glad you are happy with it, gorgeous lady! And a huge thank you to my awesome friend Kathy Aragon who recommended it to me in the first place, she is one fabulous make-up artist mama too :)

Marte:
Hei Marte! Jeg fikk ikke svart deg i går angående porto. Jeg var i Danmark hele dagen, men nå ser jeg at du har funnet det ut ;) Den kommer på akkurat under 200 kr så da får du den rett i postkassen - uten toll! :)
