I have mostly "mainstream/popular" PM products but if I have to choose, I'd say Mothership IX Huetopian Dream is underrated. It has the sparkliest 2 shades at the end and is so versatile - fairy ethereal looks, bronzy looks, beautiful rosy looks, golden, trichrome one and done moment..., yet people often exclude it when they say mtshps 1 to 8 were her best. Always interesting to hear you talk about the makeup you love 😊
I agree . I noticed that the same thing that so many people say motherships 1 through 7 or 1 through 8 are the best. I mostly use Heutopian Dream when I go out special just to use those two lavender and lilac shade. I get so many compliments! I love every shade except cosmic bloom.
this!! I feel like I’ve also noticed that when ppl who aren’t as familiar with the brand doze off into Mother’s Huetopian Dream they’re usually immediately impressed or even obsessed, moreso than people who miss the classic Astral shades. They’re def a different (perhaps less beginner-friendly) formula than Astral Solstice or Astral Ghost Orchid for example, but Astrals Venusian Orchid & Amethyst Moon are undoubtedly two of the most gorgeous shades from the Mothership lineup in my humble onion
I absolutely love Decadence and only used it on its own for the first year or so. It is a complete palette for me because of the way I do my eyeshadow and the types of looks I like. I do also lean toward I, II, III, VI, and IX because I like smoky grungy looks. From reading the comments: 1. I do hope they bring back Decadence for those who don't have it and want it. 2. I agree a collab with you and Alicia would be amazing! I love how you both analyze and breakdown explanations of colors, formulas, textures, and application.
I hope so too but this isn’t the first time it’s gone from the website and then made a comeback. Haha that’s super sweet but I am sure Alicia has no idea I exist 😂.
Yes, I agree - Decadence is a reward for the pml collectors, because the casual pml purchaser would prefer motherships with special shades. Also, yes, interstellar icon - such a gem.
Iconic Illumination, Interstellar Icon, the highlighter trio and Decadence I bought in your recommendation and I love them! I use the 3 highlighters combined most days of the week! Probably my favorite highlighter at the moment 😁
You inspired me to buy the Fluer Fantasia palette last spring and I loved it-even received compliments on it! Love the highlight trio-have had it for few years as well. Like you when I received Interstellar Icon, I was more surprised by the glory of non-blue shades too. I think Pat’s other underrated product is her eyeliner. I am always on hunt for smooth creamy eyeliners and hers are perfect. You can go easy and have subtle look or create a thick smoky look. They can be used over waterline or over the lids and will not budge! I have recently discovered her liquid eyeshadow and the green one Charmeuse is my fav.
Haha I actually bought that shade recently 😅. So glad you bought and love Fleur Fantasia because of my recommendation!! I will keep in mind the liners then.
How fun to see you talk about these products. I just picked up the highlight trio and am enjoying it. I also picked up the rouge 8 shade in her matte 12 dollar black Friday sale.
I totally agree with all your picks of underrated PML products. I don’t have the heart-shaped highlighter (Venusian Nude). I’m sure it’s beautiful, I have so I many highlighters. I just purchased the trio highlighter palette on Mercari because you raves about it in one of your videos and it looked so stunning on you I had to have it! I love it! I also got the dark star kit with the single domed baked shadows on Mercari for the same reason. That Mercury pigment is off the chain! I also got the lunar new year set in the red packaging again for the same reason. Love your videos! You sold me once again with Iconic Illumination, that’s my next purchase. I try to buy only new products on Mercari but I still spray any makeup bought on Mercari or EBay with Beauty So Clean (isopropanol spray). As for Interstellar Icon, the blue-purple is not my fav. My fav from that quad is Golden Polaris all the way! I really enjoyed this video! ❤
I would love to buy the Decadence palette (on a discount). I have the little five pan palette in clear package and most of them are from this mothership.
I believe decadence is now gone. It was limited edition and she brought it back for the vault sale in December but my understanding is that it isn’t comping back 😢 I have the little clear 5 pan too and I think it’s very underrated it’s an amazing little group of stunning shadows!
@@kbt4906she will bring it back friend 😂 I almost guarantee it 😅 Mother has brought it back so many times; I think at this point she’s toying with us with decadence ! ❤ I really don’t think that anything PMG listed as LE really is limited 😊
@@mariam.a. I really like you & your channel but I honestly don’t appreciate you constantly deleting my comments 🙄😂 it’s really uncalled for & I don’t understand why you keep deleting my comments ! It’s not happened just once; but several times across varios videos …
@@J_loves_lu I am NOT deleting your comments! Sorry if that's happened, sometimes youtube does really weird things.I have literally only every deleted extremely inappropriate comments. Never causal makeup chats.
Agree 💯 w you on that Fantasia quad. Last year, my niece let me borrow it for a Spring wedding and I ended up hugging on it for the entire Spring and Summer seasons. The styles I came out with were absolutely stunning. Everyone asked what I was wearing on my eyes. All I did was to add a liquid "purple eggplant" and a rose gold metalic eyeliners and viòla, cheft kiss.
How wonderful that you got to play with Fleur Fantasia and how very generous of your niece haha no way am I parting with any of my Pat makeup longer than a week. 🤣
Loved this! I got the highlight trio unused on depop for £20, and it's stunning!!! And today ive used golden polaris as a one and done, with a touch of divine dahlia under the lashes and outer lid. Its very pretty (if i do say so myself) ❤😂 ps youve influenced me to get decadence, plus some of this last seasons releases. Im never disappointed with pat. I even got sunlit seduction, and its gorgeous 😮
Yaaay we are like minds again! I actually tracked down Iconic Illumination on FB marketplace and it is *so* beautiful. To me, it is Pat at her best - it's accessible and wearable, yet so different. With Blitz Bordeaux, I thought I'd hate it but wound up liking it. Something I really like about old school PMG is the way Pat pushed you out of your comfort zone - like I never thought I'd wear bold eyeshadow until Subliminal arrived with Blitz Blue in it - to me Blitz Bordeaux fills that function. I actually think the relative dullness of Blitz Bordeaux and Blitz Brown is what makes the palette so versatile, I think the looks would feel unbalanced if everything was as sparkly as Astral Gold Allure and the Bronze shade. I just bought Interstellar Icon, so I am excited to try Golden Polaris. And I oohed and aahed over the highlighter trio when it came back last year... I've been kicking myself for being financially disciplined and not buying it during the recent sales. It seems to be gone from the PMG website atm, I hope it's not gone forever!!
I just hit pause to dig out this quad and put golden Polaris all over my lid. I don’t even think I touched that color before! It’s gorgeous! And since i was there, I deepened my outer corner with blue blood. Eye look instantly amped up! Thanks for reminding me of some long lost favs. ❤
I think one reason the Venusian Nude highlighter wasn’t super popular is because the highlighter that was part of the holiday collection a year before that (can’t think of the name but it was the one in the gold packaging) was pretty popular and a lot of people thought Venusian Nude was too similar to that one. Also, I agree 100 percent about the blitz astral quads. I have all three and I use Iconic Illumination way more than the other two.
I very much agree with your sentiments in this video, especially when it comes to the first highlighter trio that you featured. That trio has been my go-to inner corner highlight palette for years. I ironically was one of those people who was captivated by the beauty of Ritualistic Rose and did not give the Iconic Illumination quad the love that it deserved (in spite of the fact that I am a red eyeshadow lover, haha). I really appreciate videos that revisit products of old. New is fun, but so is appreciating the awesome products you already have. Thanks for sharing!
I bought the venusian nude highlighter because of the print and Im so glad I did ! the thing I love the most is the glitter, if Pat knows how to do something well its glitter . it saddens me that people didnt like that cause I bought the newest one, nude opal hoping for that same texture and was so disappointed with it. Now I know it was because of the hate, hopefully she brings out the formula again in the future, I want to sparkle everywhere!
Now that I have seen the entire video, I agree that these are not talked about much, especially when you are talking a specific shade. Most content is about the entire palate and trying all the colors so they don’t really go back to think about it. I think Subliminal does not get the love it deserves…again probably not new. I thought the cool tone fad would have gotten it more play. I love midnight sun also. Her eyeliners are quite nice, especially the brown liquid liner is fabulous. And her mascaras are also very good. They pass the No blurring test. Most mascaras blur on me unless they are waterproof or tubing. I also love her mattes palette. It is the perfect companion palette or great for all matte looks.
Haha I would beg to differ I think Subliminal is very well loved. Her mattes on the other hand tend to be met more lukewarm. I have also always really enjoyed them. Dark Star is a nice mascara but it smudges on me.
People have slept on decadence for years 😂 it was my very first mothership palette so it will always hold a special place in my SOUL ❤😊 I got the red lipstick after seeing your initial love for it & I have all the products you mentioned except the blush; BUT I’m not a huge blush person but ALL her highlighters are GOATED for me ! I do however feel her lip liners are underrated & they are stellar ! Creamy, pigmented & long lasting & her liquid lipsticks are HG for me too ! So many dislike them & I can’t understand why 😅 they are creamy, beautiful non-drying & last ! All thru Covid; I worked in a NYC hospital ER & the only thing I wore that lasted under my masks was Morher’s liquid lipsticks ! So good ! ❤ PS … I own ALL her quads & highlighters ❤ I’ve recently started pulling out the quads I haven’t used 😢 the ones you mentioned are in line waiting to be used 😂😊
Decadence is one of my favorites. I got it when it first came out. It was meant to be a limited edition palette and in a very small quantity. So the fact that it was limited edition and sold out so fast, people did not talk about it much. The Star Wars edition was a collector item…so again not something that would have gotten a lot of press. By the time it was issued as a regular palette, people just wanted new or special shades.
I always appreciate these reminders to use all of the lovely products I've spent so much money on 😊❤ Agreed with all of your thoughts on these! I'm not sure my fave is actually underrated, per se - but I love her first Mothership the best out of all of her products. I don't even use the blue shade really in the last few years as my tastes have changed - but all of the others are perfect for my skin tone and can be worn as stealth splendiferousness (neutralish but dazzling) even to the most conservative meeting at work, IMO.
Subliminal fan here too! It never seems to rate highly on youtube but to me it's the most perfect palette and I totally agree with you about stealth splendiferousness, what a great term. I think you have to really love cool tones to get what a special palette it is.
Subliminal fan here. Whenever I do PML Mothership ranking videos or monthly Roundup videos and I've used Subliminal that month ... it's always at the top of my list if not number 1 on the list. Love love love Subliminal.
Iconic Illumination makes me so happy when I open it 😍 I didn't think I'd really wear the red, but it's great as an upper lid liner 👌 The whole palette is really special.
I haven't try a lot of those products but I have Nude Venus 2 blush shade, and it is one of my favorites! Easy to use with a lot of looks. It is nice to watch you show love to your older items in your collection! I really appreciate that from your channel. And of course a happy new year to you and your loved ones
3:41 I had no interest in new highlighters - but im gonna buy this trifecta of highlighters because of you! Heared you sing its praise so many times now haha. I heared about it from you first, and though I kept delaying to buy it, now I have made my mind.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I agree with all your picks! I missed out on Fleur Fantasia, interstellar Icon and I regret it! But I have the highlighter trio, iconic illumination and decadence. Hopefully Pat will open the vault for those two quads I am missing 🥹
I love this topic so, so much!! The very first thing that came to mind for me instantly was the highlighter trio! I’m so glad it was the inspiration for this video. I still use it several times a week. It’s just beautiful in the cheek or eyes! Iconic Illumination is a staple for me. I love the Astral because I’m warm toned, too, (and I take it when I travel so I have an Astral with me, but the cranberry, brown, and bronze are staples for me in the fall and winter. This year I’ve been wearing a lot of cranberry sweaters and I pull it out every time for my outer corner or lash line! Is Fleur Fantasia under appreciated? Well not by me! I use the lavender ALL the time. It’s a beautiful edition to any purple look! I use the quad on my face, too! I might have gotten the idea from you!! I also LOVE Rouge 8. It’s a great red and unlike other reds I have. But I adore the MatteTrance formula. It’s comfy and so long lasting! Nude Venus 2 immediately became my favorite over Nude Venus. There’s just something to the nuance of the shade that I love more than the original. I reach for it all the time! Interstellar Icon Golden Polaris is so beautiful! You are 100% responsible for my love of it. I’d see you using it so I’d pull it out and that’s how I realized it was so gorgeous.
Thank you, Mariam. I enjoyed this video. I'm very glad someone's talking about 'old' products, 👍. Loving your eye look ❤ and the lipstick!!! 🤩 Best wishes, Anne
I love how loyal and committed you are to PML. She should be sending you PR and appreciating you back. I agree with you here, not all new products are better than older products and it’s a shame these products don’t get talked about. I think one of the reasons I love your channel is that you think about makeup in terms of brands as a whole not just individual releases (much like people who appreciate music think in terms of whole albums not just individual songs). Anyway, I have a fair amount of older PML I just wished I reached for it more. I don’t know what it is about it, when I want shiny I go to indie palettes when I want mattes I go to smaller viseart palettes. The motherships are special pieces but it’s an effort to pull them out and I grab smaller lux palettes instead.
I’m a true Pat fangirl 😅! Haha I don’t have that problem. I don’t have the mentality to pull certain products out only for special occasions. Every day is special occasion in my book 😂!
I wonder if it’s finally discontinued! 😮 The motherships are always going in and out of stock, but they usually show up as “out of stock”. This time, you’re right, it seems to be completely gone from the site
@@mariam.a. ’ve done a few different versions. I used lilac liason as a base. I love this new product. But you can skip it and use primer instead. Then I placed lotus paradise on the crease, lavender blue on the lid and a very little huetopia on the inner corners (the yellow tone is good because it cancels out my natural blue/purple darkness). Then you can add blue blood as a liner with a tiny wing and be done or use it to smoke the outer corner. For extra sparkly lids another time I tapped Golden polaris on top of lavender blue very lightly and iridescent orchid in the under eye area on top of the blue blood. I also used the same upper lids with a bright blue eyeliner (Victoria Beckham) and hypnotique under the eyes another time and the blue made my brown eyes really pop. Sorry to write a novel…..
This makes me wish I had discovered PM earlier than I did. She wasn't on my radar until 2020 so I feel like I missed some of her best products, specifically that highlighter palette. I agree with Decadence, Interstellar Iconand Iconic Illumination. There of my favorites
I know what you mean. I feel so lucky to have been a part for the journey from relatively early days. But luckily the second hand market is very helpful to get your hands on the older releases.
I have mostly "mainstream/popular" PM products but if I have to choose, I'd say Mothership IX Huetopian Dream is underrated.

Huetopian dream was my 3rd mothership(I have all but midnight sun) and it’s one of my most used. I was obsessed with the special shades.
I actually really like HD, it’s a great and palette!
Love your comment and I agree! Huetopian Dream gets me so excited each time I pull it out 🤩 The lilacy glittery shade is to die for!
I hope Alicia Archer and you do a collab one day and totally geek out on your Pat McGrath collections together!
This would be an amazing collab!
Haha that is sweet! She has no idea who I am but who knows perhaps some day..
I absolutely love Decadence and only used it on its own for the first year or so. It is a complete palette for me because of the way I do my eyeshadow and the types of looks I like. I do also lean toward I, II, III, VI, and IX because I like smoky grungy looks.
From reading the comments:
1. I do hope they bring back Decadence for those who don't have it and want it.
2. I agree a collab with you and Alicia would be amazing!

I hope so too but this isn’t the first time it’s gone from the website and then made a comeback.

I absolutely love the Pat McGrath lipsticks and I feel like I never see people talk about them ❤❤
Same.🎉
I think not since 2017 or so when they came out. I think partly because she hasn’t really expanded the range much in the past years.
I always see people shun decadence but it looks majestic. (Commenting Before watching your video) thank you in advance for another video!
Majestic it is!!
Yes, I agree - Decadence is a reward for the pml collectors, because the casual pml purchaser would prefer motherships with special shades. Also, yes, interstellar icon - such a gem.

If you’re not opposed to looking second hand I am sure they are still available.
Heyy girly I just bought interstellar icon on revolve there are several limited edition products on their site
@@the2facesinatoken Thank you for looking out 👀!! You’re a doll.
@@shelleyg1778 Youre welcomee! She also came back with nocturnal nirvana and fleur fantasia on her website RUN
@@shelleyg1778 Fleur fantasia is also up on her website go check it out I just bought it last week
Ok you sold me on the Decadence palette ❤
Yay!!
Mariam this outfit and makeup are soooo cute!!🤩🤩
This vest is my new obsession!
I love this topic so, so much!!
The very first thing that came to mind for me instantly was the highlighter trio! I’m so glad it was the inspiration for this video. I still use it several times a week. It’s just beautiful in the cheek or eyes!
Iconic Illumination is a staple for me. I love the Astral because I’m warm toned, too, (and I take it when I travel so I have an Astral with me, but the cranberry, brown, and bronze are staples for me in the fall and winter. This year I’ve been wearing a lot of cranberry sweaters and I pull it out every time for my outer corner or lash line!
Is Fleur Fantasia under appreciated? Well not by me! I use the lavender ALL the time. It’s a beautiful edition to any purple look! I use the quad on my face, too! I might have gotten the idea from you!!
I also LOVE Rouge 8. It’s a great red and unlike other reds I have. But I adore the MatteTrance formula. It’s comfy and so long lasting!
Nude Venus 2 immediately became my favorite over Nude Venus. There’s just something to the nuance of the shade that I love more than the original. I reach for it all the time!
Interstellar Icon Golden Polaris is so beautiful! You are 100% responsible for my love of it. I’d see you using it so I’d pull it out and that’s how I realized it was so gorgeous.
Yay a fellow highlighter trio lover!!
So nice to hear that we share a love for the underdogs. Fleur definitely is one. People really didn’t get her..
I think I’ll have to purchase that highlighter trio when the next sale goes on!
I hope she doesn’t discontinue it so people can still find it and be pleasantly surprised.
Thank you, Mariam. I enjoyed this video. I'm very glad someone's talking about 'old' products, 👍. Loving your eye look ❤ and the lipstick!!! 🤩 Best wishes, Anne
You know I love new things but we shouldn’t forget the beautiful things we already own.
first and excited ❤
♥️😘
Cute sweater!
I’m in love with it! 💚🥰
I have that trio😊
Yay!
I love how loyal and committed you are to PML. She should be sending you PR and appreciating you back. I agree with you here, not all new products are better than older products and it’s a shame these products don’t get talked about. I think one of the reasons I love your channel is that you think about makeup in terms of brands as a whole not just individual releases (much like people who appreciate music think in terms of whole albums not just individual songs). Anyway, I have a fair amount of older PML I just wished I reached for it more. I don’t know what it is about it, when I want shiny I go to indie palettes when I want mattes I go to smaller viseart palettes. The motherships are special pieces but it’s an effort to pull them out and I grab smaller lux palettes instead.
I’m a true Pat fangirl 😅!
Haha I don’t have that problem. I don’t have the mentality to pull certain products out only for special occasions. Every day is special occasion in my book 😂!
Well. I’ve now marked more things as favorites on the website. You influencer you.
The worst!! 😂
I see that The Mothership IV Decadence Palette is no longer avaible.
I wonder if it’s finally discontinued! 😮 The motherships are always going in and out of stock, but they usually show up as “out of stock”. This time, you’re right, it seems to be completely gone from the site
That has happened before and it always comes back just keep an eye out on the website.
I gave my iconic illumination to my daughter. I didn’t love it. She will get more use from it.
As long it’s getting the love it deserves 🥰.
@@mariam.a. You and Alicia inspired me to pull out Fleur Fantasia. I love it on me! And pairing it with Interstellar Icon is even better.
@@ralphandleosmom9075 oh what shades did you pair from the two palettes?
@@mariam.a. ’ve done a few different versions. I used lilac liason as a base. I love this new product. But you can skip it and use primer instead. Then I placed lotus paradise on the crease, lavender blue on the lid and a very little huetopia on the inner corners (the yellow tone is good because it cancels out my natural blue/purple darkness). Then you can add blue blood as a liner with a tiny wing and be done or use it to smoke the outer corner. For extra sparkly lids another time I tapped Golden polaris on top of lavender blue very lightly and iridescent orchid in the under eye area on top of the blue blood. I also used the same upper lids with a bright blue eyeliner (Victoria Beckham) and hypnotique under the eyes another time and the blue made my brown eyes really pop. Sorry to write a novel…..
@@ralphandleosmom9075 No I love it! I can get inspired by you guys too. It works both ways 🥰.
This makes me wish I had discovered PM earlier than I did. She wasn't on my radar until 2020 so I feel like I missed some of her best products, specifically that highlighter palette. I agree with Decadence, Interstellar Iconand Iconic Illumination. There of my favorites
I know what you mean. I feel so lucky to have been a part for the journey from relatively early days.
But luckily the second hand market is very helpful to get your hands on the older releases.
