I expect more from motherships due to the price and previous artistry. For 6 pans, quads and holiday palettes I expect PML to go for mass market appeal and good quality - but I have come to expect baked shades for the price premium of the motherships. Your looks are pretty but this just wants me to continue to purchase the older motherships and value my existing collection. And I completely agree that the mattes should have been mauves and purples as we need more cool tones by PML and the red “special shade” should have been a purple to light teal duochrome.
This palette may be a little basic, but honestly I can’t stop wearing it since I got it. And it’s true, those mattes just give me too much pinky vibe. Using the subliminal taupe or statuesque in the crease, and a touch of the pink mattes with the beautiful metallics and special shades, I’m loving the looks. And I loved each and every look you did. GORGEOUS!!!!
I’m really glad you used a different matte for the last look. 99% of the time I start a look with Moonlit Seduction with that same Subliminal shade or Statuesque. I like my looks so much more that way. They’ve never put Statuesque in a palette that I know of, and I wish it had gone in either Moonlit or Sunlit Seduction. My favorite look was the last one-but I can make a similar look with other Pat shadows. Sunlit Seduction is a total pass for me even on discount. I really hope it’s an anomaly too!
I love what you did and I'm really glad to see you use the other palette (which I have, I have all of them) for your last look. It was the most beautiful. And you honestly made the purplish shade look the best from what I've seen as well. Very good, honest and helpful tutorial. I would totally use the palette in the way you did. Thank you.
I love the palette and he is definitely on my wishlist. I don’t understand the commotions I hear from many people about this palette. If you don’t like the colors, don’t buy it. Waite for the next one. You have enough in your stash as long as you live. Thank you for your demo’s
I love how you show the entire look vs just zoomed in on one eye. It's so helpful! I hear you on the mattes - I would have grabbed this and moonlit seduction if they had more neutral taupe or brown based mattes. Loving your channel and loved the video :D
I collect every PM pallet released because I absolutely adore her formulas. Unfortunately, Sunlit Seduction was underwhelming for me. The special shades aren't that special. The Crimson shade and Amethyst shade are just meh to me. Yes they are beautiful, but compared to her previous MS releases, they compare more with her metallic shades, not the special shades. I really miss her baked formula. I do love the pink transition shade in this palette because she doesn't really have a pink tone like that in her other motherships, but..... I prefer more colorful looks. I do think she should have included a lavendar matte or a deep purple matte and maybe even a special duo or multichrome that shifted purple and gold or purple blue gold. That would have really taken this up a notch. I loved all your looks and the last one is prob my favorite! I have done 6 looks and made then all pretty different even tho they are all leaning in the same bronzy rosy tones. I do like this palette alot but my preferred method is pairing it with other palettes.
I understand the perspective of the "only work with the colors in the palette!" crowd, but I actually find it quite helpful, as it 1 is more realistic and makes it easier for me to decide whether the palette would add value to my collection, and 2 tells us something about the shades that are missing.
That Subliminal transition shade is the perfect contour shade for fair skin. I wish Pat would make her bronzer formula in that shade so I could have it in a big pan, and in a more buildable version for my face.
I loved all 3 looks. 1 and 2 were my favs. I have all 11. I’m gonna bring the all matte 6 pan from earlier this year to use with the sparkly shades. The first look appeared to be a mini sunset on your eyes. Good job.
The last look made your blue eyes pop so much I almost started looking up colored contacts 💙✨🩵 I feel the same way about ceasing to buy Pat‘s palettes if it continues pink. And this Mothership is pretty but I, too, will be using other mattes with it and am disappointed by the lack of actual specialness in the last four shades. They are pretty but that is not what you expect for that price from what used to be the Motherships. But yes, also still absolutely love the other Motherships and other products of hers 🩵
Great video! I can tell you were trying to stretch what was possible with this palette to create different looks. The palette seems to offer less variety than previous motherships. I loved all of your looks, though! Especially the middle one.
Kingston 😍😍😍😍 So cuuuute! He reminds me of my Mio when he was a kitten, except from him being black. Lovely video. I totally understand your feelings about the palette because I feel the same; we just expect so much more than this. I think my favourite look is number 3 😘
Definitely #3 is the best! I completely agree with your thoughts on the matte shades, and everybody is saying this just doesn’t feel that special. Of her pinky palettes, I own MS #7,8,10, and the quint. So I think I’m good with that and don’t need this one
my super oily and hooded lids are very tough! i use the UD primer potion and nyx glitter glue, but pat metallics always end up creasing on me!! in your experience, does it compare to the UD primer in staying power? thank youuuuu
All the comments have been the same...people are a bit tired of the same colours....saw the pre-launch of Natasha Denona today...gorgeous colours, genuine nude shades, great tapes, 2 wet looks 2 glitters, all very cool toned....you'll love it!!! Are you looking at it??? Buying????? PS..liked your 1st look best ❤
Beautiful looks !! ❤👌🏼👏🏼❤️🥰🤩🙌 but yes to everything you’ve said friend ! I especially loved the last look btw & how about that Sonia G sheer buffer brush ! Isn’t it perfection ?! 😮🥰 thx fir these videos !! Xoxo
Thank you for doing these! ❤❤ I will not pick this one up, because warm pinks are just not my thing. I actually gave away the Rose II mothership and Nude Allure to a friend because of that... it just all looked the same. I think this would not be an issue if she released more than one mothership per year or if she did more neutral/cool undertoned or colorful mini palettes or quads throughout the year. She might get more business by catering to a variety of tastes that way...
My fav was the 2nd and 3rd look. I so agree with you on this palette, I didn’t pick it up and I don’t think I ever will. Thanks for your thoughts! I noticed the Surratt bronzer, I’ve been going back and forth on picking it up. I really have so many but it looks like the perfect neutral tone.
A lot of the brands are being conservative this year it seems. I saw sneak peeks from Natasha Denona and Makeup by Mario, and they are beautiful neutral color stories, as is this one (well this one is neutral leaning wearable pink imo). Most companies were likely using extant components and saving on increased production costs, as they renegotiate and/or transition their budget for inflation, and are mindful of consumers in this time. Makes sense to me.. Personally prefer quads/quints for neutral shadow formulas (except viseart neutral mattes, oh man what a gem) so will likely pass on most of this year's bigger pans. Also Martina, CPB shadows work so well as face palettes too (depending on color story and skin tone)! Man, what a cool formula.
So which one was the everyday look? You made them all look pretty glam, lol. All beautiful looks by the way, Martina. I guess np. 2 was the softer one of the 3, so that would be my favourite. I like the purple shade, but I think its a bit too dark for my taste, I'd love it more if it was lighter/softer.
I’m so on the fence about whether or not to purchase this one! I know you always like to use the beige color from Subliminal. I purchased the single PM shadow in statuesque and love it! Have you ever tried her singles because I see you’re running low on that color in Subliminal… Btw-love your videos! I thought you were a professional MUA for the longest time!! 💕
Aw thank you! Defs not a professional just a makeup lover haha And yes I have statuesque too but I still prefer the subliminal one cos its a bit cooler leaning xx
I am honestly starting to get a little concerned for PML i wonder if the brand is doing ok financially or if there is some issue with suppliers for ingredients at the moment if the formulas or product variety is changing… just my own thoughts & curiosity from observations of the last several launches
I'm literally yelling at the dang TV in agreement with you! "I KNOW, RIGHT!!" I don't regret my purchase; I'm just disappointed in the direction the brand is going.
If the special shades were REALLY special I would have been the first to pick this up!but unfortunately they're not😢so I have to pass on this one..even though this colour story is my favourite out of all the motherships💔
I'm not buying it, even on sale. Its the first time I have ever looked at a Mothership and thought "meh, this is boring". The one shade I did like the look of was Blitz Crimson but then I saw how finnicky it is to work with and I'm like... well, that's a bummer. The astral shades are pretty but I feel the purpley one is somewhat out of place, to me the tone of it isn't conducive to a nice look when combined with the other colours. They are less toppery and more just super shiny metallic looking. They have more base pigment to them. The mattes and standard metallics are similar shades that we have all seen 1000 times over, within her collection and externally. Hugely disappointing. Sunlit seduction... just think of what we COULD have had. I would have loved an orangey, yellow, purple type of situation, could have still thrown a pink in there. THE SUN ISN'T FREAKIN' PINK PAT!!!! 🤣
Also, remember, I said hell I didn’t like that formula because it did like nothing when I used it with my sponge I actually got it to show up quite nicely when I used it with a brush I used number 17 from rephr
I find this palette very disappointing. The previous 2 were disappointing at first look but then had the feeling of “oh ok, I see what you are doing there”. This one is more “I just don’t want a Fluro transition shade. Wtf” Pink ran out on itself.
I watch and learn so much from you about pat mcgrath motherships. In fact, your videos are my go to when I want to use a pat mcgrath palette. I can see the quality of this paticular palette will be a disaster on my patchy dry mature eyes. Definitely a skip for me. It is lovely on you. Thank you for sharing ❤

I get melasma (spelling?) from the Sun too 🫤 I’m getting a treatment at the end of the summer at a skin spa so it’ll help reduce/remove it all….. I can’t wait lol. Gosh idk why you would need to apologize for using a matte from a different palette. People can be so uptight. I mix palettes a lot bc sometimes you just want something different! Plus is allows you to create even more looks! I’m really curious to see where PML goes in the future, something def seems off and she’s losing fans and her customer base. I truly wonder how much power she has or if investors are calling the shots especially since some pulled out and sold their shares…. Which generally means the company is not doing so well 😬

Just what I would do if I had the palette. Just get a neutral color and you have much more choice to make what you want. Perfect!😊

Oh, and also, I’m glad you mentioned that bronzer brush. I picked it up in one of the bundle sales (arriving soon) so YAY!
I would love to see more luxe with you, combining like two pallets together
Oh he’s beautiful, hi Kingston 🥰💕😍🐈⬛
Honestly all my favourite looks from this palette involve using the matts and skin show shade and a special shade from my other motherships!!
my super oily and hooded lids are very tough! i use the UD primer potion and nyx glitter glue, but pat metallics always end up creasing on me!! in your experience, does it compare to the UD primer in staying power? thank youuuuu

Wait what, Cult sent the wrong shade & then told you to send it back?! Umm no.
Your hair is looking soooo stunning!!! 💖💖💖
Also, 3rd look is by far my fave!! ❤❤❤
Yep lol I was super annoyed and thank you! xx
Kingston is super cute! I have not bought this mothership yet. I own the other 10, but this one does not speak to me. Sigh.
Try bespoke skin technology dream cream made by an Australian dermatologist. Rae Morris makeup artist RAVES about it.
I'm literally yelling at the dang TV in agreement with you! "I KNOW, RIGHT!!"
I don't regret my purchase; I'm just disappointed in the direction the brand is going.
Tretinoin for evening out skintone - blooming amazing but start very low in concentration as it's intense stuff!
Thank you! xx
Okay you are right, the Metallica do look better with neutrals.
