Seriously, YES to the video with instructions on how to apply the Matte shades because that's what I struggle with most (I'm definitely NOT a makeup artist lol). So that would be awesome🙌🙌❤❤
It is so nice to be able to search for Mel's recommendation of an older product. Than you for keeping her chanel alive and i wish you all the best and love
I'm very sure there is a better way to apply these shadows, but that's the thing....I'm not gonna buy new brushes for a $125 palette. For that price I should be able to look at it, and it should jump onto my eyelids.
I understand what u are saying at that price lol trust me but I also think that not just Pats formula but all palettes certain brushes work wit certain formulas so I don’t think it’s just for PATS..!!! I would love to see her do a video on what brushes works best regardless of just Pats palette if that makes since
The tariffs aren't just for Chinese goods but I'm curious as to which ones would apply in this case. She might just be raising her prices if we don't see other imported brands raising prices as well. I'm sure if you're really keen you could go to the Department of Commerce website and see which ones may apply. You might even be able to contact your legislative reps and they can look into it as well with better resources.
Bumblebee GREED, she got a taste of how she's actually got filthy rich, we are the reason she's filthy rich, and that's the way she treats her own customers...by raising the prices? Boycott, I really can't support someone like that. Besides ND is way better quality and she's constantly thankful and gives back!
spooky katt How do you know all about China and the ridiculous tariffs we put on them. Your idiotic president is a liar and cheating, and these tariffs he's putting on China are only hurting our economy. 2 expensive bail outs for farmers 2 years in a row. We have been trading with them along time. Before you spew out shit you know nothing about. Trump is going down, sorry bout it deplorables! Not sorry 😇
I see why others are disappointed with this palette, but as someone who finds most of other full-sized palettes intimidating (except bronze seduction), this palette seems like a much more approachable fall palette. I'm planning on getting the palette when it drops in Sephora because I love the wicked envy shade, along with the periwinkle and astral solstice. I feel like they are "toned-down" special shades that people who are afraid of too much color can use.
Yess please do a video explaining how to use more pigmented shadows! Also I want the norvina vol 1 but I’ve seen some videos of people not really able to blend them, so that would be amazing to see how you work with those as well. I watch your videos every morning while I drink my coffee! I love you and your videos! I’m so glad I found you!!
Kinkysweat has a great video of her looks with Norvina 1 which really tempted me (if not for the fact that I *could* probably find dupes for most of the colours in my stash sigh). I thought her looks with the Norvina 1 were the best of her looks in recent times. Sooooo gorgeous.
Yessss I would love the lesson on how to use her mattes well! Especially since I am one that feels like her mattes are tougher to use! 😘😘 great review girl!! Love you xox
Just ordered it ! I’m obsessed ! I’m dying to get it & I already have looks in mind ... is this the most WOW of her motherships ? Maybe not BUT the quality is there as you said & honestly I think this is the most versatile & wearable mothership palettes from the others .. people have not only complained on the price but the wearability .. oh their not daily wearable friendly ... now that she has released a more wearable mothership it’s boring or a dud ... 🤷🏻♀️ to each their own & it all boils down to preference but mother pat isn’t just another luxury brand ... her products are an experience !! Her shadows are top notch quality ... I’m a fan so I’m all about it ! Xoxo this will be my 4th mothership & I own several of her six pan palettes as well ... the quality & experience of using her shadows is amazing & unique IMHO ❤️😘😅
I ordered this palette on launch day and it will be my first large Mothership palette. I have Platinum Bronze and Bronze Ambition. This release appealed to me because it is a neutral palette with a grungy twist and I am a neutral fanatic. I’m hoping that because I don’t have tons of PM palettes I won’t have as much overlap and repetition as someone who is already a collector. Thank you for another thorough and honest review 😘
I was so certain I was going to get this palette, but then I saw that Natasha denona was releasing the Metropolis palette! You get 28 shades for virtually the same price. I think I'm going to save my money for that beauty instead.
Queen, you did that in this look. Yes yes yes to the how to blend these shadows & using the right types of brushes verses wrong ones & why. I can't wait. ❤️❤️
YES!! Please do a video on the mattes...I own all her 6 pans & the M.ship V & I do find they take alot of work....almost like I need to gently tap where I want the shadow, & better not be in a rush cause it's gona be a workout & take extra time(for me at least) for blending..Thanks for the review!
I could watch you blend powders for hours. Strangely calming. You truly work as a perfect face for this and I guess the tight platinum hairstyle gives full play to the makeup. So good, Mel! You’re such a pro.
I am glad you do comparisons. I don't understand why this isn't common practice. You guys have these massive collections, so I feel that is the point and benefit of it. I feel that every time a new palette comes out, influencers should automatically compare it to similar colors. That would save people like me money, if the colors are close enough. I also appreciated the additional run at the end with swatches. Great video!
I ordered the palette and am super excited to receive it because out of all of the Mothership palettes this one feels the most approachable for every day use. I have Mothership V, Platinum Bronze and Bronze Ambition. I like MS V but for me it’s a bit too sparkly for every day use. Can’t wait to use this one!
I really appreciate your honesty especially with a lot of people wanting to know is it going to be worth buying ...this review saves on the back end from being wasteful or using it contaminating product by purchasing, using it, not liking it , and then taking it back
I panicked when I saw the header, as I have this palatte on the way. Being 53, I think I am going to be just fine with those shades. I only have her mothership v, and the bronze six pan, so I'm thinking I'll be pleased with this one. Thanks so much for this! ❤️
I agree. I am 47 and I ordered this palette because I thought it was elegant. Also, this is my first Pat McGrath palette, so I don't think I will be disappointed.
Wow. So many dupes or close enough shades from her other palettes. Even if they’re not spot on dupes, they aren’t going to look very different on the eye. What a bummer. I’m so glad you did all the comparisons!
I'd love to see a video discussing just generally your favorite brushes for various brand formulas. My skin has become very sensitive so I'm beginning to switch to higher quality softer natural hair brushes and a video like that would definitely help me pick what to buy!!!
Honestly, its my 3rd favorite PMG palette. I think that its incredibly underrated. I think they online pictures don't show it the justice it deserves and not very true to life. I think it's REALLY nice for actually wearable looks. I really like it.
Good morning beautiful Mel! You’re quickly becoming my favorite beauty channel. Last night I watched your look book video and I fell more in love with you! You are so beautiful and you have a great style, genuine and unique. I knew you’re gorgeous from the shoulders up, but seeing your full self in your gorgeous wardrobe, well let’s just say I’m going to start my diet today! You’re my inspiration (and I’m old enough to be your mother! 😭). Blessings to you and your family. And trust me, once you love beauty and makeup, you’ll love it forever. My goal is to adopt it age appropriately 😊
Mel YESSSSS PLEASE! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻I WOULD LOVE😍 a video of the best way to use her shadows and the best brushes for her shadows! That would be so appreciated!!! 🤗💗👍🏼💫 Again, I LOVE the eyelook you created! STUNNING! 💗 Have a great day!🌞🌈🌼
I love this palette...it is definitely more accessible for non-artists and the color scheme is fabulous. My favorite is still Subliminal but I love this palette! Creating work looks with it is so perfect!
I have the minis and the big ones except for Decadence. Seeing your swatches helped to make up my mind that I don't need this new one yay! The special shades are what I shell out for, and I have enough neutrals with similar colour schemes from her other palettes. Detailed review as always, thank you!
I appreciate your honesty!!! It’s one of the reasons I have come to love your channel so so much. In fact, your channel is the only one I am subscribed to that I watch every single video. I would love to see a video that talks about which brushes to use with Pat McGRATH shadows.
YAAAAASSSSS ... I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU SHOW US THE BEST APPLICATION, Tools etc. for these newer and incredibly pigmented shades!!!! PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE, MEEELLLLL!! Thanks for another awesome video. Watching and learning your blending application from start to finish with tips, tools, the whole shebang!💙💜❤️💚💯💯💎💎🧡🧡👑👑
As usual a great video I will definitely be adding this to my Pat McGrath collection because I'm OBSESSED! but in regards to your idea about a video on how to use her shadows, right brush versus wrong brush that would be a brilliant idea would love to see that video Mel.
Mel, Thanks for using clean makeup brushes in all your demos!! It may seem silly that I appreciate that, but it looks professional. You wouldn't do someone's makeup with dirty brushes or teach a class with dirty brushes. It shows that you care. Thanks for sharing your experience and professionalism with us!! Lisa x
Absolutely I would love to see a video on right brush vs wrong brush and how to use super pigmented shades. I think what you are trying to say about this pallet is that the parts aren’t thrilling but the sum of the parts is good. The eye look you did with it is gorgeous and I didn’t expect the final outcome when you started. You’re always very fair with your opinions.
I’m so glad that my fav guru isn’t afraid of colour. Even though I’m not daring enough, I do it on a smaller scale coz you inspire me! Thank you for your honesty especially knowing it’s a controversial one.
WOW the bronze ambition shades are almost all SPOT ON, I'm glad I have that one. I don't think I will be purchasing this. Thanks Mel for always doing such a great job with your videos. ❤
OMGosh MEL! You always deliver an amazing eye look. Love I would love for you to do a “right” brush for many products, not just eyes Bronzers, blush, setting and buffing powder, by explaining when we need to use synthetic vs natural etc Even cream products, I know you least favorite!
First comment ,,, the only shade I want is wicked envy ,,, I don’t ever use the PM palettes I have already ,,,love your honesty ,,, you are very very talented
I already ordered it! But I have all her palettes and I think she knows we are going to buy them no matter what. I do hope to get some fun fall looks esp with that lovely green!
I just received this palette. It's GORGEOUS! I love it much more than first Divine Rose. I have them both. I love this color story, it's cool and unique. This orange shade along can sell the whole palette. Also I love green and purple.
I love your videos Mel! I have issues blending the darkest purple matte shade in mothership V palette. That shade is so gorgeous and unique. I really want to learn how you work with Pat's mattes. :) Like the "right brush and the wrong brush", or "wet or dry" sort of technique things on her palettes. :)
I got this because I don’t have any of her large palettes. I likely have a similar green elsewhere and I don’t wear purples very often, but I know these are all colors I will use and I wanted to try out more of a variety of her formulas so I think it will be nice to have. What really struck me in the comparisons is how similar all the palettes really are ultimately. I could see picking up one more at some point, but I definitely won’t be collecting them all.
Emily Majeski Same sentiments here. This will be my first big PM palette as well and after looking at all the Mothership choices, I felt the VI has current (on trend) shades that for me will be wearable and it has many look options to it. I get the Mother Earth vibe to it and love the look of the special shades to pop everything with. I can’t wait to receive it! I would like maybe one more as well but don’t see a need for all of them as they are similar in many respects.
Yes to the right brush video!! Did you do a video on the best way to use charlottle tilbury eyeshadows as well? I thought you did, but cant remember which! Thanks!
Yes ! Please do a video about using her eyeshadows the right way with the right brushes! I have troubles using her dark brown mat shadow called Depth (it aways looks so patchy on me) from the Mothership I: Subliminal Palette. Looking forward for the video!!!
Hi Mel! Loved the video and comparisons. YES to a brush video! I ordered this palette because I really love the Mother Earth vibe to it with some gorgeous special shades to add the wow factor to it. As a mature woman, this palette seems wearable to me and has several look options to it. This is my first big PM palette so these shades aren’t repeats to me. I’m super excited about it and can’t wait to receive it. 💕
Thank you so much for this video and your honesty. I’ve been going back and forth on this palette since it launched and this video made me realize that I don’t need it and the shades I wanted from it, I already own in her other palettes.
Good morning mel I enjoyed your video today Pat McGrath Mothership although I enjoyed the tutorial I feel that it's much too expensive but I would love to try her pallets the ones that have come out already anyways thank you for taking the time to show us your new pallet I'll see you in the next video have a wonderful weekend
Thanks for your honest review. I did purchase the palette and can’t wait for it to arrive. I only own V and so the comments about the similarity between VI and its predecessors won’t apply to me. That said I think it’s an important point to bring up, given the cost involved. Take care and thanks again!
Thank you for your video! I have Wayne Goss and Sonia G brushes and they work well with my Pat McGrath eye products. I have all of her palettes and am waiting for this one to arrive on Monday or Tuesday! I am looking forward to working with the periwinkle shade and that charcoal dusk which is close to black but not black I absolutely need in my life!! I also love the layering effect that I get with Pat McGrath, I can change any look just by layering something on top! For me, that is the magic of PMGLabs!!! Love you and your videos!!!
Holy shit. Bronze ambition is SO SIMILAR wow. Thanks for the comparison swatches Mel. appreciated much ❤️ you could def create a similar look from bronze ambition. I feel if you have 1,2,6 and bronze ambition then you have the whole palette duped pretty much xox 😘
I totally understand and appreciate the nuance of your review. You think it’s worth it but it’s not needed and from yours and kinky sweat’s review I would agree!
Thanks for your honest review Mel. I was looking forward to your review on this palette. I have one of her 6 pan palettes, which I love! But, none of the special Mothership palettes. I think if I buy one, it will by the V. That one looks the most unique to me. Beautiful eye look though.
Midnight Sun and Divine Rose are my first and second 10 pan mothership purchases. The other motherships are gorgeous, but I was afraid. These two seemed so much more everyday friendly for me. I’m thrilled with my purchases!
Your swatches really told the story. I have all of her 10 and 6 pan palettes except for the decadence and subversive, and I don't think I will be getting anything unique out of this palette. Plus as you said, when I look at this palette, I'm just not inspired to put anything together and it requires a lot of thought about what would go to create an eye-catching yet cohesive look. I think I will be passing. Thank you again for a wonderful review Mel!
I thought it was going to be the wow factor we had with bronze sedeuction, I should have waited for your video !!! I already order it is not going back though. But I expected more. Thank you Mel 😘
I love the look you created! And in true PM fashion, the shadows blended beautifully! Gorgeous! Mine hasn't arrived yet, but I can't wait to get my hands on it! This will be my first full size Mothership Palette. I currently own a few of the mini Mthrshp palettes. I had originally planned for either the Bronze Seduction V or Sublime II to be my first full size purchase, but then I saw this one was coming, and fell in love with the color story! II or V will be my next purchase though, for sure. I hope to eventually own them all. Like you(and Alicia, of course), I'm an unapologetic PML fan(atic)! I am so glad that you did such a thorough review, Mel. Thank you!
I love it, in fact it's my favorite because of the brown which can be used as a base with other colors over it, contour, softer smokey look. I think this palette is more for mixing than just using each color singularly like Linda Hallberg does a lot but I rarely see influencers do it with out looking too harsh as if you used a deep black.
Thanks for the comparison video! 💕 I love Pat McGrath so much! I still purchased the palette to go with my collection! BTW, have you seen the new holiday palette from Natasha Denona? Its release date is Sept 10, at Sephora.😀❤️ Oooooooh, it is GORGEOUS! What do you think? Are you picking it up?
Love the way the eye look came out, it’s just as pretty as I thought it would be. However I’m not picking it up I just don’t feel I need it. Thanks for the review Mel I can’t stop staring at your eye look 😍😍😍
THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST! .... cuz those 4 "special glitters" WERE NOT SO SPECIAL... such a big let down! Compared to how all the previous palettes blow us away .. this new one seems familiar and boring ... I AM GOING TO BUY THE NEW NATASHA DENONA 28 PALETTE FOR $129 INSTEAD
I would be so grateful if you did a tutorial exclusively on the Mothership palettes. I think I am ready to finally invest in one of them (if not this newest one, then one of the older ones). I’ve heard they can be tricky so tips and tricks from you would be wonderful. I really loved this tutorial - you are in close so we can see plus you applied the shadows in real time so I know how long it takes to blend. Thanks!
Yes please on the how to use Pat McGrath palettes. I have 3 of her minis and they are soooo pigmented sometimes I feel like I go overboard and look crazy. I won't be picking up this one. I'm still thinking about the cool blue palette. Although now that ND is coming out with her big palette for the year I kind of want that one maybe. Decisions, decisions...
When I saw you put that blue/purple on, I thought, that looks just like the shade from Dark Star and then I saw the swatch and wow, yeah, totally similar. I love this eye look though. Glad to see I can do it with the Juvia's Warrior II and the Darkstar palette which I already have!
Thank you for all these comparisons! I have 4 PM Palettes and just swatched all mine together.. I am not a gold person so I just cant justify buying anymore of her Palettes when I will not use all the golds.. And she does a lot of golds! I would love a video of the best way to apply her shadows.. I find them to be very patchy and by the end of the day my makeup looks muddy and I have bare patches in my crease.. (I ha e hooded eyes). I am very experienced with makeup and don't have this problem with other Palettes unless I use like a glitter glue
This is the first PM palette that has interested me. In all of her other palettes there was always one or two (or more) shades that I would not use. But in this palette I feel I would use every colour. Since I don’t own any of her others I am not put off by the repetition or duping. Maybe this palette was designed to appeal to someone like me...? It just ‘speaks’ to me and I am excited for this purchase. Thanks for this review Mel, I really value your opinion.😃💖
Loving some of the tones of this but, as I have Bronze Seduction, it is not top of the list of purchases. I'm trying to be more selective & I have too many comparable shades to this. But it is beautiful. Depends what you have & if you are a collector. Yes, I would love to see what brushes you prefer! Save me some trial & error! Thanks!
A video on the right brushes would be good- :). I wonder why she left off being more creative with the special shades. Still, I don’t have those shades so I might pick it up, but the new ND I saw look STUNNING..and for the same price?! I cannot wait! Thanks again for another solid, honest review.
I'd be interested in a video of "right" brush vs. "wrong" brush. I'm all about the learning! XO 💗
yes yes yes!!!
Great idea!
yes, me too
II love those kinds of tutes too!
Yes!!! That would be a great video
Seriously, YES to the video with instructions on how to apply the Matte shades because that's what I struggle with most (I'm definitely NOT a makeup artist lol). So that would be awesome🙌🙌❤❤
Yep I struggle with it too.
@spooky katt Heeyyyy you🤪❤
100% agree with everything you said. Quality is not a let down, that special factor is just lacking in this one!
right!! I was really let down with those shades. 😩
Please do that video, whitch brushes should you use for PGM mattes 😘😘
It is so nice to be able to search for Mel's recommendation of an older product.
Than you for keeping her chanel alive and i wish you all the best and love
I would love love to see u do a video on the right brush vs the wrong brushes to use PLEASE GIVE US A VIDEO ON WHAT BRUSHES TO USE🙂
I'm very sure there is a better way to apply these shadows, but that's the thing....I'm not gonna buy new brushes for a $125 palette. For that price I should be able to look at it, and it should jump onto my eyelids.

I would love to see her do a video on what brushes works best regardless of just Pats palette if that makes since
I keep coming back to your videos for inspiration and your excellent swatches. Miss you Mel. ♥️
I don't know why she is rising the prices , she's starting to make high-end brands look affordable
I noticed the raise in price when I was on her site recently 😬
If her products are made in Italy, how do the tariffs apply?
The tariffs aren't just for Chinese goods but I'm curious as to which ones would apply in this case. She might just be raising her prices if we don't see other imported brands raising prices as well. I'm sure if you're really keen you could go to the Department of Commerce website and see which ones may apply. You might even be able to contact your legislative reps and they can look into it as well with better resources.

Missing you. I just needed to hear your calming voice and witness your artistry again. Rest easy beauty. 💔
I see why others are disappointed with this palette, but as someone who finds most of other full-sized palettes intimidating (except bronze seduction), this palette seems like a much more approachable fall palette.

I agree that it's super wearable....I actually LOVE it!!!!
@@claudiacanales2662 so happy to hear you're loving it !

My problem is I'll end up buying both,regardless. Lol. I need a support group
Zotzy I support your decision, because I will too😂
That one looks so gorgeous 😍
I agree
Thinking about and miss you, Mel.
Queen, you did that in this look. Yes yes yes to the how to blend these shadows & using the right types of brushes verses wrong ones & why. I can't wait. ❤️❤️
Beautiful look!! Can’t wait to get mine next week! YES, please do a right brush, wrong brush video!! That would be incredibly helpful!

Yes! Right and wrong brush to use on these pallets!!!! I love your too!!! I love the eye look !!!!! 💘❤️❤️❤️❤️🖤💪🏻👍🏻🤘🏻🖖🏻🤟🏻✌🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love your honesty. I only have 2 other large palettes and one small from her so I decided to grab this...I'm trying to switch to quality over quantity
I clicked so fast.
EDIT: I wish she had re-released Mothership IV Decadence. It would’ve been a no-brainer for me since I missed out on that one.
Same! I keep on waiting for her to re-release that palette!
Yes!!! I am so ready for that.
I want decadence so badly I missed it and it had unique colors
I have the Decadence palette Brand New In Box if anyone would like to buy it! Never used it. PayPal or Venmo, could ship it tomorrow :)
The mini palettes with the bad plastic packaging- one of them is supposed to have colors from decadence.
You’re becoming one of my favorites. Thank you for your awesome videos.
thank you!!

Your talent for colour combinations/looks beats everybody’s! I would definitely like a demo of the mattes/correct brushes! 💋 xx
Yes please!!!! Fantastic idea .....please do a video on which brush to use with the various textured eyeshadows!!!
Yes please on the blending video! I have such a hard time with my pat palettes.
Thank you for your honesty! I agree! Would love to see brush techniques with high pigments.

yes please on the how to video...i always struggle a bit with the blending on her palettes no matter how i prep the eye area. Thanks Mel!
I appreciate your honesty!!! It’s one of the reasons I have come to love your channel so so much. In fact, your channel is the only one I am subscribed to that I watch every single video. I would love to see a video that talks about which brushes to use with Pat McGRATH shadows.
Very cool! Love the eye look. Those side by sides were very interesting. TFS!
Just what I thought when I saw this palette! Thank you Mel for the video, and the comparisons! You saved me $125.00 😅❤️
I was lusting over this palette. Seeing the comparisons.... I may just want a few of the 6 pan palettes...
I’m interested in the right brush for the different kinds of shadows. I love your Honesty Mel! Thank you 🙏
❤️❤️❤️❤️
YAAAAASSSSS ... I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU SHOW US THE BEST APPLICATION, Tools etc. for these newer and incredibly pigmented shades!!!! PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE, MEEELLLLL!! Thanks for another awesome video. Watching and learning your blending application from start to finish with tips, tools, the whole shebang!💙💜❤️💚💯💯💎💎🧡🧡👑👑
As usual a great video I will definitely be adding this to my Pat McGrath collection because I'm OBSESSED! but in regards to your idea about a video on how to use her shadows, right brush versus wrong brush that would be a brilliant idea would love to see that video Mel.
Mel,
Thanks for using clean makeup brushes in all your demos!! It may seem silly that I appreciate that, but it looks professional. You wouldn't do someone's makeup with dirty brushes or teach a class with dirty brushes. It shows that you care. Thanks for sharing your experience and professionalism with us!!

Can I just say how I envy your eye “real estate”?? You have such beautiful eyes and create such interesting eye looks. I love watching your videos.
Absolutely I would love to see a video on right brush vs wrong brush and how to use super pigmented shades. I think what you are trying to say about this pallet is that the parts aren’t thrilling but the sum of the parts is good. The eye look you did with it is gorgeous and I didn’t expect the final outcome when you started. You’re always very fair with your opinions.
I’m so glad that my fav guru isn’t afraid of colour. Even though I’m not daring enough, I do it on a smaller scale coz you inspire me! Thank you for your honesty especially knowing it’s a controversial one.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
WOW the bronze ambition shades are almost all SPOT ON, I'm glad I have that one. I don't think I will be purchasing this. Thanks Mel for always doing such a great job with your videos. ❤
OMGosh MEL! You always deliver an amazing eye look. Love
I would love for you to do a “right” brush for many products, not just eyes
Bronzers, blush, setting and buffing powder, by explaining when we need to use synthetic vs natural etc
Even cream products, I know you least favorite!
As usual your honesty is so refreshing. This palette is gorgeous, but doesn't speak to me. Yes to the brush video. Please and thank you.
First comment ,,, the only shade I want is wicked envy ,,, I don’t ever use the PM palettes I have already ,,,love your honesty ,,, you are very very talented
Yes! To the 'right brush, wrong brush' for this palette or any other of her palettes. That would be great 😊!
I already ordered it! But I have all her palettes and I think she knows we are going to buy them no matter what. I do hope to get some fun fall looks esp with that lovely green!
I just received this palette. It's GORGEOUS! I love it much more than first Divine Rose. I have them both. I love this color story, it's cool and unique. This orange shade along can sell the whole palette. Also I love green and purple.
I love your videos Mel! I have issues blending the darkest purple matte shade in mothership V palette. That shade is so gorgeous and unique. I really want to learn how you work with Pat's mattes. :) Like the "right brush and the wrong brush", or "wet or dry" sort of technique things on her palettes. :)
I got this because I don’t have any of her large palettes. I likely have a similar green elsewhere and I don’t wear purples very often, but I know these are all colors I will use and I wanted to try out more of a variety of her formulas so I think it will be nice to have. What really struck me in the comparisons is how similar all the palettes really are ultimately. I could see picking up one more at some point, but I definitely won’t be collecting them all.
Emily Majeski Same sentiments here. This will be my first big PM palette as well and after looking at all the Mothership choices, I felt the VI has current (on trend) shades that for me will be wearable and it has many look options to it. I get the Mother Earth vibe to it and love the look of the special shades to pop everything with. I can’t wait to receive it! I would like maybe one more as well but don’t see a need for all of them as they are similar in many respects.
Yes to the right brush video!! Did you do a video on the best way to use charlottle tilbury eyeshadows as well? I thought you did, but cant remember which! Thanks!
Yes ! Please do a video about using her eyeshadows the right way with the right brushes! I have troubles using her dark brown mat shadow called Depth (it aways looks so patchy on me) from the Mothership I: Subliminal Palette. Looking forward for the video!!!
Yes Mel! Gorgeous as usual. The video for how to use Pat's palettes would be greatly appreciated 😊
I appreciate your honesty Mel!! Thank you!! Please do a "how to" using PM formulas 🙏🏼
Hi Mel! Loved the video and comparisons. YES to a brush video! I ordered this palette because I really love the Mother Earth vibe to it with some gorgeous special shades to add the wow factor to it. As a mature woman, this palette seems wearable to me and has several look options to it. This is my first big PM palette so these shades aren’t repeats to me. I’m super excited about it and can’t wait to receive it. 💕
Yay I got my shipping notification from PM today!!! She’s getting closer!! 💕
Thank you so much for this video and your honesty. I’ve been going back and forth on this palette since it launched and this video made me realize that I don’t need it and the shades I wanted from it, I already own in her other palettes.
I would definitely be interested in a Pat McGrath-specific brush tutorial!!
Yes love to see a “how to use PMG” shadows and what brushes work best etc. Been looking on TH-cam for ages but no one has done a video like that :( xx
Good morning mel I enjoyed your video today Pat McGrath Mothership although I enjoyed the tutorial I feel that it's much too expensive but I would love to try her pallets the ones that have come out already anyways thank you for taking the time to show us your new pallet I'll see you in the next video have a wonderful weekend
I would love an in depth tutorial for these palettes!! Right vs Wrong Brush...yes, please!
Thanks for your honest review. I did purchase the palette and can’t wait for it to arrive. I only own V and so the comments about the similarity between VI and its predecessors won’t apply to me. That said I think it’s an important point to bring up, given the cost involved. Take care and thanks again!
Thank you for your video! I have Wayne Goss and Sonia G brushes and they work well with my Pat McGrath eye products. I have all of her palettes and am waiting for this one to arrive on Monday or Tuesday! I am looking forward to working with the periwinkle shade and that charcoal dusk which is close to black but not black I absolutely need in my life!! I also love the layering effect that I get with Pat McGrath, I can change any look just by layering something on top! For me, that is the magic of PMGLabs!!! Love you and your videos!!!
Holy shit. Bronze ambition is SO SIMILAR wow. Thanks for the comparison swatches Mel. appreciated much ❤️ you could def create a similar look from bronze ambition. I feel if you have 1,2,6 and bronze ambition then you have the whole palette duped pretty much xox 😘
Gorgeous eyelook. Love the comparisons of the palettes
I totally understand and appreciate the nuance of your review. You think it’s worth it but it’s not needed and from yours and kinky sweat’s review I would agree!
SO Much LOVE for this 😇 Angel!!! Thinking of you Mel ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks for your honest review Mel. I was looking forward to your review on this palette. I have one of her 6 pan palettes, which I love! But, none of the special Mothership palettes. I think if I buy one, it will by the V.
That one looks the most unique to me. Beautiful eye look though.
Midnight Sun and Divine Rose are my first and second 10 pan mothership purchases. The other motherships are gorgeous, but I was afraid. These two seemed so much more everyday friendly for me. I’m thrilled with my purchases!
Your swatches really told the story. I have all of her 10 and 6 pan palettes except for the decadence and subversive, and I don't think I will be getting anything unique out of this palette. Plus as you said, when I look at this palette, I'm just not inspired to put anything together and it requires a lot of thought about what would go to create an eye-catching yet cohesive look. I think I will be passing. Thank you again for a wonderful review Mel!
I thought it was going to be the wow factor we had with bronze sedeuction, I should have waited for your video !!! I already order it is not going back though. But I expected more. Thank you Mel 😘
I love the look you created! And in true PM fashion, the shadows blended beautifully! Gorgeous! Mine hasn't arrived yet, but I can't wait to get my hands on it! This will be my first full size Mothership Palette. I currently own a few of the mini Mthrshp palettes. I had originally planned for either the Bronze Seduction V or Sublime II to be my first full size purchase, but then I saw this one was coming, and fell in love with the color story! II or V will be my next purchase though, for sure. I hope to eventually own them all. Like you(and Alicia, of course), I'm an unapologetic PML fan(atic)! I am so glad that you did such a thorough review, Mel. Thank you!
I would love to see a video on how to use these shadows....Looks beautiful on you as always!!
I love it, in fact it's my favorite because of the brown which can be used as a base with other colors over it, contour, softer smokey look. I
think this palette is more for mixing than just using each color singularly like Linda Hallberg does a lot but I rarely see influencers do it with out looking too harsh as if you used a deep black.
Yes! Love, LOVE YOUR LOOKS ALWAYS! You always slay! Please do a video on how to blend the mattes!
Thanks for the comparison video! 💕 I love Pat McGrath so much! I still purchased the palette to go with my collection! BTW, have you seen the new holiday palette from Natasha Denona? Its release date is Sept 10, at Sephora.😀❤️ Oooooooh, it is GORGEOUS! What do you think? Are you picking it up?
Tanya wondering the same thing😃
Tanya 💕 I just did a first impressions on that Natasha Denona Metropolis!
Exfoilate let me know your thoughts!
Love the way the eye look came out, it’s just as pretty as I thought it would be. However I’m not picking it up I just don’t feel I need it. Thanks for the review Mel I can’t stop staring at your eye look 😍😍😍
THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST! .... cuz those 4 "special glitters" WERE NOT SO SPECIAL... such a big let down! Compared to how all the previous palettes blow us away .. this new one seems familiar and boring ... I AM GOING TO BUY THE NEW NATASHA DENONA 28 PALETTE FOR $129 INSTEAD
Only got v and the small bronze one. Might pick it up, love the colors but want the ND one too
I would be so grateful if you did a tutorial exclusively on the Mothership palettes. I think I am ready to finally invest in one of them (if not this newest one, then one of the older ones). I’ve heard they can be tricky so tips and tricks from you would be wonderful. I really loved this tutorial - you are in close so we can see plus you applied the shadows in real time so I know how long it takes to blend. Thanks!
The 3rd and 3th colomn makes a beautiful quad that inspire me nwith some unique colour combos and looks.
Yes! On right brush vs. wrong brush for Pats mates
Yes please on the how to use Pat McGrath palettes. I have 3 of her minis and they are soooo pigmented sometimes I feel like I go overboard and look crazy. I won't be picking up this one. I'm still thinking about the cool blue palette. Although now that ND is coming out with her big palette for the year I kind of want that one maybe. Decisions, decisions...
Yes, please show us how to better blend these! Gorgeous look as always😍
When I saw you put that blue/purple on, I thought, that looks just like the shade from Dark Star and then I saw the swatch and wow, yeah, totally similar. I love this eye look though. Glad to see I can do it with the Juvia's Warrior II and the Darkstar palette which I already have!
Thank you for all these comparisons! I have 4 PM Palettes and just swatched all mine together.. I am not a gold person so I just cant justify buying anymore of her Palettes when I will not use all the golds.. And she does a lot of golds! I would love a video of the best way to apply her shadows.. I find them to be very patchy and by the end of the day my makeup looks muddy and I have bare patches in my crease.. (I ha e hooded eyes). I am very experienced with makeup and don't have this problem with other Palettes unless I use like a glitter glue
This is the first PM palette that has interested me.
In all of her other palettes there was always one or two (or more) shades that I would not use. But in this palette I feel I would use every colour.
Since I don’t own any of her others I am not put off by the repetition or duping.
Maybe this palette was designed to appeal to someone like me...?
It just ‘speaks’ to me and I am excited for this purchase.
Thanks for this review Mel, I really value your opinion.😃💖
Loving some of the tones of this but, as I have Bronze Seduction, it is not top of the list of purchases. I'm trying to be more selective & I have too many comparable shades to this. But it is beautiful. Depends what you have & if you are a collector. Yes, I would love to see what brushes you prefer! Save me some trial & error! Thanks!
Your videos are impeccable as usual, great job Mel😘
A video on the right brushes would be good- :). I wonder why she left off being more creative with the special shades. Still, I don’t have those shades so I might pick it up, but the new ND I saw look STUNNING..and for the same price?! I cannot wait! Thanks again for another solid, honest review.
