The Ultimate Beauty Hack for Organizing Your Makeup

While the packaging from your favorite makeup lines can be sleek and playful, the reality is that your quirky Korean blush, celeb-inspired eyeshadow collection and heaps of other drugstore + designer makeup are SO much of a hassle to transfer around. That’s why we’re obsessed with the Z Palette. The slim, magnetic device makes storing and carrying makeup easier than any other organizational alternative by letting you create customizable palettes of ALL of your favorite shades and consolidate them in one place. Not only is Z Palette a godsend for professional makeup artists like myself who have an endless amount of products to tote around, but it’s a gem for anyone who wants to streamline their bulky makeup kits. So while you wait for yours to come in the mail (we’ve totally sold you on it already, right?), we’ll brush you up on Z Palette prep by showing you the best way to depot your makeup, or remove it from its casing so that it’s ready to transfer to its slender new home. And get pumped: The possibilities for how you create your palette are endless!


Z Palettes

– small ($14)

– large ($20)

– extra large ($28)

– round and square metal stickers ($5-$6 for 30) — these allow your makeup pods to attach to Z Palette’s magnetic base

Tools:

– wax paper

– stainless steel cuticle pusher

– Sharpie

– Goo Gone

– rubbing alcohol + paper towel

– flat iron

Use the cuticle pusher to get in between the grooves of your makeup case and gently pop each pod out of place. Once you have all of your makeup out of its original casing, set the pile of old packaging aside so you can reference the colors of each item later on.

Don’t freak if you crack your fave blush, or any other kind of powdered product! Here’s the quick fix: Pour half a capful of rubbing alcohol onto the makeup pod and pat with a paper towel to bond it back together. See, good as new!

Prep to remove the makeup from its outer plastic casing by tearing off a piece of wax paper and laying it in between your flat iron. Then turn it on to its highest setting. Once it’s hot, place each pod on the wax paper and let it sit on the heated flat iron plate for a minute or two so that the glue holding the plastic casing releases the interior metal pod. Carefully remove the pod from the flat iron and use the larger end of the cuticle pusher to extract the metal pod out of the plastic casing. Use Goo Gone to gently rub off any residue on the back of the metal pod.

Find the metal sticker that best matches the size of the pod — either a circle or a square. Then peel off the paper and stick it to the back of your pod — this is what’s going to make your makeup stick to the Z Palette’s magnetic base. Don’t forget to write the name of the color on the back of the metal pod with a Sharpie! Now you’re ready to arrange your Z Palette.

smokey eye

everyday essentials — from face powder to lipstick and concealer — in your small Z Palette. Wait… it can hold lipstick and concealer, too? Oh yeah! Here’s how to hack your fave cream-based products to fit in this compact Caboodle:

Just add your fave lip shade or go-to liquid bronzer to those empty eyeshadow pods from your old or used-up palettes and smear it in with the larger end of the cuticle pusher. Add it in with the rest of your goods and just like that, you’ve created a super portable start-to-finish makeup kit. This one includes face powder, concealer three shades of lip gloss and a neutral eye shadow.

Obviously, the bigger the Z Palette, the more makeup you can cram in! Plus, once you pods are Z Palette-ified, you can mix-and-match between palettes. Think how much easier it will be when you need to stash your daily colors in your purse or pack a rotation of eye shadows for your bud’s destination wedding. We’ll let’s see, it’ll look just like this…

And never again like this!

Z Palette FTW!

My Facebook bio reads "I have a Narnia quote for every occasion," and the sentiment rings true. The hope and wonder found inside The Chronicles of Narnia played a huge role in shaping who I am as a writer and as a human. I'm a part of a Facebook group and keep up with some online forums, which means that I can spot clickbait or a fake poster from a mile away.

After Netflix acquired the rights to The Chronicles of Narnia in 2018, I was on the edge of my seat to see who would be involved. So, as you can imagine, when it was finally confirmed Greta Gerwig (who directed 2019's Little Women, the other story that has heavily influenced my life) would write and direct the next two movies in the Narnia universe, I told everyone.

Although the books are no stranger to controversy, I'm confident Greta Gerwig will handle them with grace and tact because she has a knack for bringing stories into the 21st century while still feeling true to their original heart.

Here's the latest news on Greta Gerwig's new Narnia movies, curated by a Narnia superfan.

Is Joseph Quinn joining Narnia?

Theo Wargo/Getty Images

We haven't gotten an official confirmation that Joseph Quinn is joining the Narnia movies, but near the end of a Vanity Fair game with his Gladiator 2 costars, Fred Hechinger guesses Joe's favorite movie franchise is Narnia — and everyone immediately starts acting suspicious. Making faces at each other, getting quiet, and being super awkward is not the way to act inconspicuous, you guys. It definitely reminds me of the Outer Banks cast trying not to spoil the OBX 4 ending, which doesn't help the situation.

Who else could be in Greta Gerwig's Narnia cast?

Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images

After a reunion with Brie Larson at the 2024 Golden Globes (they starred in 2010's Greenberg together), X users are hoping the Oscar winner will make an appearance! "She need to get in Narnia somehow," one user said when they retweeted a video of the reunion. The reunion in question features Brie hopping like a bunny over to Greta, who squeals as they hug. That's exactly how I greet my friends IRL.

"When [Brie Larson] gets the Best Supporting Actress nomination for playing the White Witch, wait," one user added.

Saoirse Ronan told The Wrap at the Sundance Film Festival that she's already asked to be in Greta Gerwig's Narnia movies! The actress played the lead in two of Greta's films: Jo March in Little Women and the titular character in Ladybird. "We have that kind of relationship where I’m like 'So I’ll be in the next one!,'" she says. The actress also told The LA Times that "if [Greta] asks me, I’ll be in it."

Phil Bray/Disney Enterprises, Inc./Walden Media, LLC.

However, it looks like we do have an idea of who we won't see in the cast. OG Narnia cast member William Moseley (Peter Pevensie) told Bleeding Cool he doesn't expect a call from Greta Gerwig: "I’m not part of that world anymore, which sometimes makes me sad because I love the world of Narnia and becoming a part of it."

"In terms of what I think about Greta Gerwig directing, I think she’s incredible," he continues. "Barbie was an amazing movie, and Little Woman was brilliant. Everything she touches turns gold, so I think Netflix is lucky to have her, and I’m sure she will embrace the challenge. I hope she enjoys it because it’s an incredible world to create, and I can’t wait to see what she produces."

Which Narnia story is Greta Gerwig adapting?

Walt Disney Pictures/Walden Media

The specific Narnia movies the writer-director's making haven't been named, but a TIME interview claims Greta's adapting "the first book" in the series. The only hiccup is that they don't confirm whether they mean the first book chronologically (The Magician's Nephew) or the first book C.S. Lewis published (The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe). I'm thinking it'll be The Magician's Nephew since we've never seen that story onscreen.

“[The films] won’t be counter to how the audience may have imagined those worlds,” Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos tells TIME, “but it will be bigger and bolder than they thought.”

While we don't have official confirmation on which movie Greta Gerwig is adapting, we know she wants it to have even more of an impact than Barbie. "I want to make it feel like magic," she says. “C.S. Lewis said that the goal of writing fantasy — you know, something from his imagination — he’d say, let’s say you wrote about an enchanted forest. The goal would be that then every time you walk into a forest after you read it, you’d say to yourself, ‘maybe this is an enchanted forest.’ So that’s a tall order, but I guess re-enchantment of the world [is my goal].”

It looks like we can expect to come away from Greta Gerwig's The Chronicles of Narnia movies with even more love for the world, more childlike wonder, and more courage and kindness towards each other — and I am totally here for it.

How long has Greta Gerwig wanted to make a Chronicles of Narnia movie?

Chang Ho/Warner Bros. Entertainment

Like the intentional planner she is, Greta Gerwig actually thought about directing a Narnia movie way before her involvement was ever confirmed. "I would say the land of Narnia is equally exciting and terrifying," she says on The Empire Film Podcast. "I have nothing really to report on it other than it’s something I was actually talking about before I made Barbie. So, that’s been sort of in my unconscious working its way through. But that has been a pattern. I wrote a draft of Little Women before I made Lady Bird."

Narnia, Little Women, Barbie — Greta Gerwig has a knack for turning our beloved childhood stories into something complex and emotional that resonates with us even more as adults!

“I’m slightly in the place of terror because I really do have such reverence for Narnia,” Greta tells BBC Radio 4. “I loved Narnia so much as a child. As an adult, C.S. Lewis is a thinker and a writer. I’m intimidated by doing this. It’s something that feels like a worthy thing to be intimidated by."

"As a non-British person, I feel a particular sense of wanting to do it correctly," she continues. "It’s like when Americans do Shakespeare, there’s a slight feeling of reverence and as if maybe we should treat it with extra care. It is not our countryman.”

Are these new The Chronicles of Narnia movies a continuation or a reboot?

Walt Disney Pictures/Walden Media

We don't have any info yet on whether this adaptation will pick up where The Voyage of the Dawn Treader left off, whether it will be a remake of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, or if it will be a totally new story within the Narnia universe (similar to Prime Video's The Rings of Power).

I'm personally anticipating that it will be the first option because I would love to see Greta bring something like The Magician's Nephew (which has never been adapted) to life onscreen.

What is The Chronicles of Narnia about?

Disney Enterprises/Walden Media

The Chronicles of Narnia revolves around the fictional land of Narnia, and the children in our world who find it. Time passes differently in Narnia than it does on earth, which means that even though around 50 years pass for the characters, they find themselves in a different decade or century every time they reenter the magical land.

Each book has themes like good vs. evil, family, and identity as the characters face different challenges and adventures. The coolest thing about these books is how open-ended C.S. Lewis wrote them — because your own personal experiences, life lessons, and worldview impact your imagination, you have a different experience every time you read them.

“It’s connected to the folklore and fairy stories of England, but it’s a combination of different traditions,” Greta Gerwig tells TIME. “As a child, you accept the whole thing—that you’re in this land of Narnia, there’s fauns, and then Father Christmas shows up. It doesn’t even occur to you that it’s not schematic. I’m interested in embracing the paradox of the worlds that Lewis created, because that’s what’s so compelling about them.”

Yes! Netflix acquired the rights to The Chronicles of Narnia (which were previously held by Walden Media) in 2018, but there wasn't much news for the next few years. The New Yorker confirmed that Greta is attached to write and direct these Narnia Netflix films in the near future.

The final Chronicles of Narnia adaptation for Disney was 2010's The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Even though the film set up a sequel, issues with the rights ended the film series early.

Here’s everything we know about the Game of Thrones movie, including plot, cast members, release date, and more.

Is there a movie for Game of Thrones?

Game of Thrones Movie News

Why yes, there is! The Hollywood Reporterconfirmed last week that the Game of Thrones movie is in the early stages of production. According to Entertainment Weekly, HBO and Max CEO Casey Bloys first announced that a GOT film was in the works at Warner Bros. during a 2025 preview event, where he told reporters, “When we announce at HBO we're developing this story or that story, keep in mind it's developing.”

Bloys continued, “We’ve got two shows at the moment, including Game of Thrones [prequel House of the Dragon]. I think the movie is the same idea. They’ll develop an idea, we'll see if it's good. We'll read the scripts along with them. I think it could be fun and interesting. That’s the point of development: you see, is there a story that's worthy of being in theaters and a big spectacle? I think it would be fun.” We are sooo excited!

Game of Thrones Movie Cast

Currently, there is no director, writer or cast members attached to the project.

But until then, we’ll be keeping our fingers crossed for an Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, or Maisie Williams appearance in the new film.
