Mac Pro Palettes discussion

[katelyn1223]

Since you have seen them in real life can you confirm which lid is see thru- the lid of the palette or the part covering the insert?

The lid of the palette was see through.

The lid of the palette was see through.

Do you have to purchase an insert for the palette to be magnetic? Or can I just use the empty palette as is

 

[honey on boost]

The lid of the palette was see through.

hmm.. then that might change my decision. I thought only the center divider was see through and the lid was black.

Piarpreet! Here are 2 posts I found with pics. There was another one with a link to one of the Mac international sites that had a pic but I couldn't find it. I think this is the same pic anyway.

thank you. I did see these. I thought you guys meant one with birds view so I could see the actual insert and "cavities"

No. I think that is what we are all waiting for. If these are showing up in some stores maybe we will see more photos soon. Oh this must be the longest wait ever!

 

[pemily]

its gonna be on like donkey kong soon lmao

im starting to get more drawn to palletes, still dont think I'll get one but

 

[corinne27]

Am I the only one who likes their eyeshadows in single form?

i do too.... i dont care about saving space! lol

 

[princess sarah]

I used to love them in single form until it got to the point were they werent getting as much love because they were everywhere.

I dont depot special packaging but I depot limited edition.

And I am running out of room, been holding out for these,

Here are pics of the inserts. I thought we had already seen them. I don't think you will be able to use them without the palette. Seriously €12 for just this?!

I keep vascillating between excited for the clear lids and then then annoyed by having to purchase an insert separately. In the end, my reaction is therefore = meh

LOL. I'm glad I bought some backup e/s palettes. I toyed with getting a blush palette or two, but I bring my blush to the office with me for touchups. Depotting them would prevent that, although I love the look of the six-palette.

 

[katelyn1223]

I'm thinking the insert has the clear lid. Maybe the poster just saw the insert and didn't see it inside the case. Maybe she can clarify. I'm hoping the insert comes with a clear lid. Maybe we can just buy the inserts if we don't plan to travel with it. I really want ones with a clear lid.

He showed me the case and the insert separately. The palette itself had the clear lid, and he said it was magnetic on its own, so it essentially was like a Z palette. The insert didn't have any sort of lid of it, and I didn't get to hold it myself, but it didn't look like it would be magnetic on its own. Since the case on its own is magnetic, maybe they didn't want back to back magnetic surfaces, if that makes sense lol. He did put the insert it for me to see, and it basically looked like current palettes.

Okay, the fact that it is magnetized moves my meh back to interested again. I can see getting one to start, loving it and going apey for more. If there is no insert, how many e/s (regular size) can b squeezed in, I wonder?

Thanks for the detailed description- its really helpful. Did you get to see the double layer palettes?

Thanks for confirming that they are like the z palettes!

Glad I could help! I didn't get to see the double layer ones, but he did mention that they would be like a book.

I think my cousin fits 28 e/s in her current palette, so I assume it'd be somewhere close to that #

 

[CartoonChic]

I know it'll be more expensive, but I'll probably end up getting the new palette with the double inserts. I like the idea of having my MAC shadows in a MAC palette, the clear lid, and being able to flip through colors like a book. I'm a sucker for this type of stuff. I love boxes and storage and keeping things neat, tidy and together. I'll pay the extra money if it satisfies my (sometimes irrational) need for organization.

I believe the Pro-only customizable version fits 24 e/s.

 

[Spikesmom]

I believe she is talking about how many would fit without the inserts. It fits 24 with the insert.

I believe the Pro-only customizable version fits 24 e/s.
