Eyeshadows...Do you prefer to keep them single or put them in pallets?

I prefer eyeshadows to be in palettes because they're much more practical and easy to carry around but depanning causes too much pain for me because there's always the risk of breaking the eyeshadow. So I still have most of my shadows in singles.

I put all my eyeshadows in pans...usually the 15-shadow pan but I recently brought a quad for my "everyday" look I go for almost daily (at work, etc) and I like the convenience of it so I might start doing more of these.

I dont like keeping them single because then I have too many and I need a larger makeup bag. plus I like having them together because it gives you a better idea of what colors to mix and match since they are already together!

I actually like keeping them single. I depotted some of my e/s including the milani ones, but I love it in their pots. I have palettes, the 15 one, and I don't really like it.. I think I will get the small palettes from now on and keep the e/s in there.. 'cause I can easily see the colors through the transparent cover.
Plus, I love the pots 'cause they're just cute and easy to use..
Maybe that's also because I don't have my own dressing table. I live with my mom in-law so I use make up in the bathroom and I don't like to take the big palette with me. I like the little ones (4-well, pots), they're much simpler..

I prefer pallets. It's too frustrating to keep them singles and open and open singles again and again. It's easier and faster to keep them all in pallets.

I am seriously considering palettes as I've gone MAC crazy the past few months. I am so tired of digging through my traincase to find a particular color! I am nervous about depotting, and I like to see the names of the colors on the bottom of the pots, how do you ID your colors in the palette?

all of mine are still in the post & original boxes, always have been. i'm getting a palette from a seller here at specktra, because keeping them in the pots/boxes is just taking up way too much space now. this is a big step for me because i've never used a palette before...hopefully i won't regret depotting everything.

all the ones in special packaging though (belle azure, lure, neo sci-fi, etc) i'm going to leave in the pot/box simply because i really dig the packaging they came in. i'm big on packaging, so the special ones will always be left in their original state.
