Introducing UNII Palettes~ Okay, it’s no surprise I’m just a bit obsessed with palettes, so what better product to use than a UNII Palette to make my own?
Time to make a confession and admit that I have one too many NYX Powder Blushes. Given their price point, NYX powder blushes are pretty amazing, my favourite go to shade is “Natural” which I actually may hit pan on one day! It’s a tie between that blush and NARS Powder Blush in Orgasm. (I’ve never hit pan before so when I do, it will be a momentous occasion that will be celebrated by all!)
When I first discovered the UNII Palette, I decided to take the plunge and try them out for my NYX Blushes. Each palette comes with the palette itself, a sheet of magnets and a bunch of instructions on how to create your palette.
The packaging is beautiful, it reminds of the way Apple products are traditionally packaged. Sleek, clean and modern 🙂 (Yes, I’m a sucker for good packaging… hi I run a makeup blog!?)
My favourite aspect of the UNII Palette however is the palette itself! And here is why:
- Very strong solid package, you can accidently knock it and be sure your makeup will stay secure.
- Comes with a massive mirror!
- Allows you to put multiple brands, pans of different shapes and sizes.
- Space for a brush / eyeliner pencil
- Comes with a rubber stop for easy grip when applying makeup
- Clip shuts securely, so if for some reason your makeup shatters inside, it won’t spill out into your luggage / bag.
I’ve read a lot of reviews complaining of the size, but I actually really like that it is the size that it is. Any bigger and it wouldn’t be as cute and compact as it is now, which is one of the reasons I love it!
I can’t wait to get more so I can depot the rest of my NYX Blushes…. pathetic aren’t I? lol. Thinking of depotting some eye shadows too, and maybe even a face powder so I can have one palette that contains all my powder products for one neutral look for easy travelling~ (Because you know I’m such a jet setter~ {end sarcasm})
I highly recommend them, they start at $29US and the more you buy, the cheaper they get~ Another great place to take advantage of the strong Aussie dollar. You can buy them from UNII Cosmetics 🙂

I wanted to get these! but I don’t have enough single shadows to justify the purchase… also I own so many palettes i can’t be bothered to de-pot them!!

They are adorable 😀 But yes, if you already have a mountain of palettes, it’s wise to be practical! A lesson I should learn off you <3
