De-Potting Myths — Busted!
Posted on January 24 2018
There are some common myths that cause makeup mavens to think de-potting will harm their makeup. But that’s just what they are — myths. The de-potting pros at Z Palette would like to set the record straight and put these erroneous beliefs to rest so you can free your mind and your makeup.
Some lipstick lovers believe melting a tube of lipstick to fit into a small pan will change its consistency permanently and ruin it. WRONG! Once the melted lipstick hardens, as long as you haven’t boiled it (read: it’s bubbling!), it returns to its original state. So there’s no reason to stuff your makeup bag with lipstick tubes when you can enjoy the convenience of carrying multiple lip colors in one handy palette for easy beauty on the go. And blending melted lipsticks together makes it easy to create your own custom shades.
Perhaps the biggest myth is that during the de-potting process your pricey pressed powder shadows, highlighters, blushes and bronzers will shatter and bite the dust — literally. Nope! There’s no need to say bye-bye, Benefit; so long, Stila; later, Laura Mercier.
You can easily resurrect broken powder makeup and press it back into service with a simple procedure using a few common household items.
- You’ll need rubbing alcohol (99% is ideal) in a spray bottle, paper towel, a spatula (for full-size compacts), or a coin (for small shadow pans).
- Spray the powder liberally with alcohol. (Some say vodka works too, but we prefer to save that kind of alcohol for other purposes). Don’t worry if you spray too much — it will just take longer to dry.
Crisis averted — your powders are preserved!
Another myth is that all magnetic palettes are created equal. Not even close. The magnet inside each Z Palette is stronger than other similar concepts (copies), and our clear window with open base is an exclusively patented design. Z Palette also offers more palette options than ever: flat and domed, single and double-sided, in sizes ranging from the 3-pan mini up to the double-sided palette, which holds 54 standard 16mm pans. And they come in a variety of captivating colors and patterns including Phantom, White Lux, and Rose Croc as well as the sleek, textured Black that lies at the heart of the signature line.
Such versatility makes Z Palettes ideal for holding other items besides makeup, such as hairpins, jewelry, sewing or office supplies, a tiny toolkit. Or put a picture in it and use it as a frame. The options are endless.
XOXO, Team Z Palette

Imagine becoming vastly wealthy overnight. Being a winner of a multi-million-dollar lottery is certainly a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Laura Benson from Chicopee, Massachusetts, the famous PowerBall lottery winner of $758 million (£591m) in 2017. I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Dr Isa, and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, I also want to encourage all those who need help to try their luck with Dr. Isa, who helped me win the lottery. I believe you’re still going to win with his help, too, just like he did for me. WhatsApp: +2347046030096 Email: drisaspellcaster@gmail.com Website: https://drisaspellcaster.wixsite.com/dr-isa
EXCELLENT LOVE SPELL TO GET EX HUSBAND/BOYFRIEND OR EX WIFE/GIRLFRIEND AND CURE HERPES AND INFERTILITY THAT WORKS WITHIN 24 HOURS.
Contact Dr. Odunga at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR Whats App/CALL +2348167159012I got my ex husband back to me and also got fertile and gave birth to twin girls after 12 years of infertility in marriage.
When I came online last year, I saw testimonies about Doctor Odunga about how he has been helping people with marriage issues and lottery spells so I decided to contact him. We spoke on email at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and later he gave me his Whats-App number which is +2348167159012. He assured me of his help to get my ex husband back after 3 years of no contact. Great Odunga is the best spell caster I must say. My husband called me after 24 hours of contact. The third day, I received natural herbs for fertility and after using it, I became fertile and conceived. My husband and I reconnected, had sex and I was pregnant. Presently I am happy to say I am the mother of twin girls and this is ALL THANKS TO GREAT ODUNGA. I came online to say this: If you need help, I believe you are saved with this man.

Whats App/Call +2348167159012 and you too will give a testimony to help othersI want to use this medium to share my incredible manifesting with Dr. Kachi, who truly changed my life. For a long time, I struggled with homelessness after losing my job as a nurse. Life felt like an endless battle, and I spent many years trying to win the lottery, hoping for a better future. But despite my efforts, I had no success and was growing increasingly frustrated. That was until I came across an amazing testimony from a woman named Natasha, who shared how Dr. Kachi helped her win the National EuroMillions jackpot. I had always loved playing EuroMillions, but winning seemed impossible for me. However, after seeing Natasha’s story, I decided to reach out to Dr. Kachi prepared a special spell to help me with guaranteed lucky numbers. Within 24 hours, he provided me with the winning numbers and instructed me to play. To my amazement, I won £184.656 million in the EuroMillions! Thanks to Dr. Kachi, my life has been transformed, and my financial situation has changed for the better. I will never forget this joyful moment, as it has been the best thing to ever happen to me. If you’re struggling and seeking a way out, never give up. Dr. Kachi can help you, just as he helped me.

Dude. Buy from China. Same exact sh*t, but at crazy low prices. (you gotta wait a few weeks for shipping, and do your research on how to spot quality products).
End of story.
This was an interesting tutorial. However, I’m curious as to how Z Palette has been doing since the drama last year. Is the CEO still harassing critics on social media? How is she coping with being irrelevant?
Additionally, I’m amazed this article had the gall to suggest DIY tips instead of pushing another scam product for preserving powders, given how disgusting and childish Shteysel was towards people that used DIY methods of de-potting.
On the bright side, I’m looking forward to de-potting my extensive makeup collection – without Z Palette’s products.
