depotting urban decay bamboo palette

Also known as the eco-friendly "Sustainable Shadow Box".  I bought it at Ulta on sale for around $15.  This package contains the bamboo palette with 10 shadows, and a travel size eye-shadow primer.  It swivels opens.  The actual palette is pretty thin and contains 10 shadows, one small eyeshadow brush, and a small mirror.  As you see on the back of the palette, each shadow is 0.56g (0.02 US oz).

Even though it was pretty thin, I decided to depot it into my Z-palette.  I didn't like the swivel effect since it damaged the two eye shadows at the end (you can see a line going down the "Twice Baked" and the "Half Baked" shadows.

At first I was thinking about just ripping the purple paper, but that turned out to be too much of a hassle.  So I did what I did with the Stila palette, and just wedged the shadows out.

So 3 out of 10 damaged, with the worst being the "Twice Baked".  I managed to indent the "YDK" shadow.  As for the "Oil Slick", I didn't feel too bad considering I hardly ever use black eyeshadow.

It fits neatly next to my Stila depots.  And it looks like I can fit a lot more stuff in my Z-palette.

Stila Depotted

The Stila kaleidoscope palette is my first palette depotting adventure.  I was definitely not very good at it but for the first time, I didn't think I did too badly.  I did cracked the middle pink shadow (Star) and created dents on every other eye shadow besides the dark liner shadow (Spiral).  The layout is the exact same as the other Stila 5-shadow travel palettes, which are currently on sale at Sephora and Stila (I'll link it below).  

Unfortunately these pans were not magnetic and so for the pans to stay in the Z-palette I had to put on the magnetic stickers.  The circle stickers that came with the palette were actually too big (26mm) and I ended up buying the squares ones (12.7mm x 15.7 mm) from Z-palette.  It is $6 for 30 pieces of the square ones while it is $5 for 30 pieces of the circle ones (20 pieces came with my Dome Palette purchase)

Swatch

Here's a swatch of the colors. This was done outside in the sunlight.  The colors from top to bottom are: 

Spiral: dark purple shadow with purple sparkles

Dance: matte mauve beige shadow

Star: light frosty pink shadow

Shine: frosty lavender shadow

Twirl: mauve beige shimmer shadow

Geranium: bright pink cream blush or lip color

Star is really hard to see in the photo, I actually had to layer it 3 times for it to even vaguely show up in the photo. I also had to layer Shine and Twirl a bit too.
