I have been waiting for MAC to release the new version of their pro palettes and I am sooo glad that they're finally here. Not sure when it was released but I was watching a makeup collection video on YT and I saw the new palettes so I hauled my ass to a MAC store the following day lol. I haven't been this excited for a MAC product since.. hmm, actually it has been awhile. MAC collections these days are a bit meh.
These were my old ones. Who remembers sticking the names of the e/s on the inside lid so they know the names?? Hehe..
Did a little switcheroo and voila!
Here are the individual shots:

So keep in mind that I started collecting makeup in '09 and I was MAC-obsessed then, hence the massive amount of eyeshadows lol. I seriously contemplated of getting the Z-palette but hesitated since they're cardboard. I did buy a quad from MAC with the new packaging back in Feb 2010 and have been waiting since for this to come out so yay!!
Anyhoo, about this palette.. you can either buy it on it's own or you can get the insert (which is an additional $11 CAD) for it which houses 15 eyeshadows. Also, the old version can house about 26 eyeshadows but I only managed to fit 24 on the new one. The new version is also a lot taller than the old one which means that your depotted mineralized make-up should have no problem hitting the lid.
Overall, I love this new version and it has been a long time coming. I am hoping that MAC would someday release an XL size (:
I will for sure buy more and I dunno what to do with the old palettes now (maybe B2M?).
