Hey! You Rodeo Clowns Out There

Yeah, you know who you are. You know you are out there looking at blogs especially the ones that have information on colorless face powders. You don't want to mute all those bright colors on your face with some beige powder. You want one that will just set and not subtract the color intensity. Of course, you other clowns and ones that are mistaken as clowns at the grocery store may find this an interesting read.

Z Palettes

I have to give a big shout out to Zena for creating the Z Palettes! Zena is a makeup artist in film and television. Check out her website: www.makeupbyzena.com. Like many artists, she had many items and was always looking for ways to organize. Organization also led to complications since many brands had their own palette which in itself took up more space and time. (I am sure you make up lovers out there know this feeling!) Light bulb moment for Zena, the Z Palette!

The Z Palette comes in 2 sizes: Small palette-3.8”L x 3.8”W x .44”D/10.2cm x 10.2cm x 1.1cmD; Large Palette-8"L x 4.75"W x.44"D/20.3cmL x 12.7cmW x 1.1cmD. The large size is big enough to house your entire face. I put in my foundation, blush, cake eyeliner. I could also transfer some lip products into a pan and stick them in for the ultimate complete face. The small one is great for travel. It holds 9 round 26mm pans or 4 round36mm pans. Remember, you aren't restricted to just a single shape pan.

These are high quality palettes which are well constructed and are recyclable if you, by horrid chance, would want to chuck these. The window is not some flimsy see through thin piece of film but a sturdy one that can be wiped clean easily. The magnet is strong and will keep the pans in place. If you have pans that are aluminum. There are magnets available at the website for purchase to keep them in place. These palettes are tough and should you accidentally drop it, the stuff inside will stay intact. No more heart thumping drama or mourning the loss of your eyeshadows and such. The magnet that keeps this palette closed is pretty strong and tight.


Great palettes for the makeup junkie and for the makeup pro! Get it at www.zpalette.com

Oh Boy Not Another Beauty Blog

I can't believe I am blogging because I had the attention span of a chipmunk when it came to my diary. Hopefully, my attention span on blogging will be better because I will have an audience of at least one (myself most likely). Or maybe, my thoughts will be important to someone or become a bunch of twaddle. Either way, at least, my thoughts are now on this blog.

Okay, so my foray into blogging is my addiction to cosmetics. Yes, I know there are many blogs out there on beauty and I would be the first person to roll-her-eyes and say, "Not another one! ARGH!" Yes, another one just because I like the obscure lines. There is a vast land of cosmetics out there than the usual MAC, Dior, Shiseido, etc. So, if you like to explore then join me. Every once in a while my thoughts may trail off to something other than makeup, just think of it as a station break and just bare with me (for as long as this blog lasts).
