Review of TKB Trading Compacts(will be adding on as I purchase more)

Hey guys, 
               This is just the start of what is to come for this post but for now, I have 3 different palettes/compacts from TKB and will be doing reviews on them. 


Ok, so the first one is TKB's Large Square 36MM Palette with Mirror found here.  These are in short supply though as they were bought as a Manufacturer Clear-out and once they are gone, they are gone forever. I have to say after purchasing one to try though, this makes me extremely sad because this is an amazing palette. The picture does NOT do it justice in the least. It is great quality comparable to the big box retailer's that charge more than quadruple the price for the same palette. It holds 4, 36MM eye-shadows,is magnetized,  has a great large mirror, and is super sturdy. Oh, and did I mention the price??? It's also SUPER CHEAP! This palette is less than $1.50 if you buy one, and if you buy in bulk I did the math and they are around $.76 each!! Trust me, you will not be disappointed buying in bulk while you can once you see the quality of these. Here are some pictures of the one I bought, with eye-shadow in them. :)











Ok, so my next review is on TKB's Pocket Compact. Honestly, when I first saw the picture I wasn't too impressed so I only ordered 6 to try. Well after trying them, AGAIN the picture's do not do them justice. They are just so handy, and with a eye-shadow in them, they are really pretty. And for 2 for a dollar, you can order a bunch to keep in your purse or make-up bag for single shades. :) They are magnetized as well. You can purchase those here.


And finally, this is the last palette I ordered in this order(should be getting a new order with 2 more different ones next week sometime) is the TKB's Painterly Pan. This is one of my favorite's so far. It is clear, holds 5 eye-shadows that hold a good bit of product, and is compact enough that you can fit several anywhere you need or want to carry them. And again, they are cheap. Are you sensing a pattern here yet? That's because from what I have found so far, TKB offers the best prices on tin pans, and palettes and compacts. The only thing I wish they would add(and this is for me personally) is a palette that holds a BUNCH of small 15MM size eye-shadows in an 88 piece palette or 120 piece palette because I know several make up artist's who want me to create custom palettes and custom shades for them but want them in palettes bigger than 12 piece palettes. But really, I haven't really found any supplier than offers empty palettes in that size at anywhere near a reasonable price. Boo. :( Anyway, so here is a few pictures of the painterly pan and you can buy that here. :)
