"I travel a lot, and thought this would be a great way to carry a lot of makeup in a tight space. I bought the 16pod pallet. I bought a bunch of new make-up and filled it up! I put this in my carry on luggage tucked into a pocket. I am pretty gentle with my carry ons, but it shattered all of the makeup and the compact. I ended up with $200+ of brightly colored dust."
This product is best for:loose powder
No, I do not recommend this product.

"I love that Aveda tried to create a less disposable makeup kit, but it needs to be improved just a tiny bit.
Personally, I don't usually wear lipstick and prefer gloss, so although I bought a lipstick to be inserted in this compact, I hardly use it. Also, I wish there would be a place to hold eye shadow applicatorsor tiny brushes. The new compact is nice and slim but I would still have to carry around eye shadow tips.
Pro's: - the compact is durable and environmentally friendly. - you can mix and match different blush, powder and eye shadow.
Con's: - too bulky! (as many reviewers have already said) - the colors are placed close to each other, and not very separated, so they could get blended. but that might be a good thing."
This product is best for:portable makeup
No, I do not recommend this product.

"This compact is a little bulky, but it would have to be since it holds a lipstick too. To me, that’s a great trade-off! It’s durable. I’ve thrown in around in my bag, dropped it a couple times and unintentionally put it through to ringer so to speak. It holds my Inner Light Pressed Power oh so perfectly. I love it!"

"The product looks better online than in person. The picture is a bit deceiving. I don't remember seeing dimensions listed. Great concept for a combo compact/lipstick holder but the actual product is just too bulky. It really takes up more space in a small evening handbag than I wanted. I'll be returning it soon!"
No, I do not recommend this product.

"I am a big fan of the whole series of Aveda compacts however this one s particularly delightful in that its truly compact and allows you to "piggyback" an Aveda lipstick. All you need if you're going to a party and don't want to pack your entire set of make up. You can choose to place multiple small palettes or a single blush or powder inside where a magnetic strip securely grasps the item of choice. Its elegant in appearance and people always ask about it."
