Packaging
The packaging is black patterned plastic and it does feel a bit heavier than you would expect, but I’m sure that’s due to the fact that it needs to be sturdy enough to survive the popping items in and out. Be sure when you’re popping out the eyeshadows to cup your hand over them so that they don’t go flying across the room.
I really like that this palette included a push brush in it, which I’ve never seen any other palette do before. A+ for originality!
Value
Each eyeshadow in this palette is .05 oz of product (which is considered full size), so you’re getting .60 oz. This breaks down to $4 per eyeshadow (if you don’t add a value to the brush or the palette container), which is a very good deal to me!
The eyeshadows themselves are lovely. I didn’t feel like there were any duds in the palette. With the smoky green, navy and purple, you’ve got lots of colors to choose from for a smoky eye. The copper, browns, champagnes and pinks are perfect for daytime looks. These 12 shades give you a lot of versatility.
I think this is one of the great holiday palettes this year. With the eyeshadows being lovely, the convertible case, and only $4 per eyeshadow, this is definitely a great deal.
What do you think of the bareMinerals Mix Master READY Convertible Eye Shadow Palette? Do you think bareMinerals will put out more shades that fit into it?
This is on sale now for $34 on Bare Minerals site. Thank you so much for the swatches Phyrra. I would have wasted my money on this otherwise. While I am very seriously good with dark shads there isn’t enough variety for me in this palette.
Neat idea and a great mix of colors. This is going on my wishlist.
I think it’s a great wish list choice!
Great. Just great. Yet another palette I need. Gah! LOL
What colors are your favorite to wear?
I’m more into neutrals but I am trying to branch out. I’ll do colour, if I can keep it soft. I have some brights but I’m afraid I’ll look like a jerk. LOL
Try adding just a pop of color along the lower lash line
I’ll do that. Good idea. 🙂
Cool concept. I think it’d be especially nice for people who don’t already have customizable empty palettes, which is what I usually use for traveling. But like you said, they definitely get points for originality!
Yeah the z-palettes are great for that!
