byAlegory Acrylic Makeup Eyeshadow Palette Organizer W/ Removable Dividers | 10 Space Vanity Desk Storage Fits All Palette Sizes – Clear

Great palette organizer and has lots of other uses too. I purchased this organizer for my makeup palettes. I have them sitting on a shelf so they are easy to grab and use. I prefer the acrylic because it allows me to have immediate view of my palettes. This way I will use them! I use mDesign Household Storage Organizer for DVDs in medium clear for my large zPalettes but they did not work well for my palettes I am not depotting as they are all odd sized and not easy to grab like the zPallettes. This product is almost perfect for my purpose. It was packaged well as all previous Alegory were. Each piece is wrapped completely in foam. This travelled overseas without any damage. The base is a thick acrylic unlike some of the cheap products I have seen. I was able to pick it up fully loaded and the base was strong. The base is 10″ x 5 5/8″ x 5/8″ (LxWxH). It is slightly flared/beveled all around the edges which ensures no tipping over. It comes with 11 dividers which are not as sturdy as the base but plenty thick enough for their purpose, 4 3/4″ w x 3 9/16″ h x 1/8″ d. The dividers have little half moon shapes on the bottom edge which slides into the same shape in the base. They fit tight and once they are in, it’s a bit difficult to remove. I made a little crack in the edge of one divider in an attempt to remove. The great thing about this organizer is the ability to accommodate thicker sized palettes. My UD Vice2 is too thick for any other organizer and usually sits by itself. You control which slots you want to use so when you need the wider opening, just use the next slot. Each opening between the dividers is 1 1/4″ w. I like that the product is built well so that the dividers are straight up, not flimsy or floppy within the slots. Good for an OCDer like me. The sides are open which will accommodate a variety of palette sizes. Due to the way the dividers fit into the slots and the depth of the base, the openings are slightly deeper than the height of the divider at 3 9/16″; the overall height is actually 3 13/16″. If you want an item to fit in the opening the base and dividers create, it needs to be less than 4 5/8″ wide. I have to turn my Tartelette palettes on their sides since they are too wide to sit level in the base. The other palettes will sit level on the top of the base. I included a picture to illustrate this. It is one aspect I am not happy with. The other con is that there are small circles in each corner from the manufacturing process. It doesn’t affect the use of the product but it can be a visual disturbance for those who notice those things. You can use this for pretty much any purpose requiring items to be stored vertically.

Easily Breaks. This palette organizer was something I wanted since I gotten more palettes. As soon as I got it it was so beautiful but the are so fragile and break so easily plus they can’t hold that many palettes. Plus the holders have fallen causing one of my palettes to break. Luckily it was one of my oldest Palette and was going to expire soon. I would suggest getting an plastic one not a kind like this due to how they break easily and hard to take out causing the holders to crack

Arrived Broken. Just received my eyeshadow pallete stand and it arrived with a large chunk of the based chipped off. Luckily, I was able to super glue it back on since I didn’t want to go through the process of returning it and getting a new one. Seems like it works great otherwise! Just seems like it might be fragile.
