Empty Eyeshadow Palettes..Which one?

[xcutiepie331x]

Hey everyone. I don't know if I'm posting this in the right forum but I had a question about the 15 pan eyeshadow palettes. I just got some MAC pigments and I really want to press them. I heard about the coastal scents palettes and they are pretty affordable compared to MAC. But after doing some research, I came across another website that sells empty palettes, and they even come with the magnetic strips. It's Stars Makeup Haven ..Has anyone ever ordered from here? If so, do you like the palettes, or is coastal scents better? Thanks!!

I like the 28 palette ...But my space would not allow that .....They look very good ...

I just need the 15 space one, and I'm debating on whether to get it from coastal scents or stars makeup haven. Stars makeup haven is cheaper + it comes with the adhesive magnets. But, Ive also read about all the great reviews from coastal scents, so I'm a bit confused. I know its just a palette lol, but I'm picky when it comes to my makeup stuff.

Can't wait to hear what you think of it!

I definitely want that 28 palette... love the idea of it holding more shadows, and I've got a crapload to depot

As far as I've seen from YT, the coastal scents one is not magnetized, which seems a pain to me.

Yeah, It took about 2 weeks and some change. I was overcharged, I was never issued the credit I was due, so as you can imagine, I'm not exactly a fan.

Ya that's the reason I didn't order it from coastal scents.

I get my 28 pan palettes from Auraline. It's not magnetized but it's only $7. I got a case for $35 and I got some micro sticky dots from Michael's for the bottom of the pans and no problems whatsoever.

I just got 15 eyeshadow palettes from StarsmakeupHaven. Overall, I am pretty impressed with it. 19 tins and small magnets came with the palettes, which I guess you don't get from costalscents. Slight problem.. the palette is not metal, so I don't know what you need the magnet for. One side of the magnet is sticky so I will probably stick that part to the bottom of the palette. The tins fit better (height wise) without the magnet, though since the form part is not deep enough for the magnet. I could just use double sided tape. I wonder if costalscents one's metal..
This was my take on Starsmakeuphaven palettes. Overall, I think it is a good deal compared to the price..

Thanks for all the info. I'm upset because I emailed them and specifically asked if the palette was metal and they said yes. If that wasn't the case, then I would've have ordered it. Now its going to be a hassle finding metal to make the palette magnetic.

I have the coastal scents palette, which I prefer better than the MAC palette because it is more compact. Yes, it was a slight problem that it did not come with magnets. However, all I did was buy magnetic sheets from Michaels and placed in the bottom of the palette under the foam and popped the pans right in. I did not use Magnets on the bottom of the pans, because they will stick out over the foam. I'm pretty picky, but I am very pleased with this palette.

Can someone tell me what the dimensions are of the 15-pan and the 28-pan palettes? I'm interested in the 28-pan palette but I don't know how big it is and if it would fit in my case.

Thanks!
