I’ve been watching too many Nordic Noirs lately so I then had to run to your channel for the more pleasant aspect of life. 😁. I say your look today was one of the loveliest ever.
Your videos make me so happy. 😅 I love that you always use products you already own. I bought some older Pat McGrath releases. I will also buy on Black Friday but after that I'm not buying anymore makeup.
I don’t buy too many new releases so I use and enjoy a lot of what I already own and I am glad to hear you find it enjoyable! 💕 Sounds like a solid plan!
Yes! You would love the westman atilier blush and contour sticks. The formulas blend like a dream. They’re absolutely lovely. Probably my favorite of all her items. Petal is a great “basic” shade. I don’t see anyone with light to medium skin tones not loving it.
Hello, Mariam! Thanks for doing a new Pat-pairing video, I really like those ones😊I have bought CT’s pop shot in the Champagne colour and it is quite sparkly indeed. I have been eyeing the blue one (Cosmic Rocks) too, but I am reluctant to spend another 30€ for a single eyeshadow!
I haven’t been buying much makeup at all, for months. But in the Sephora sale I got Patrick Starrr’s Oil Sucker primer and the Hourglass Dragon palette. I hope to try them tomorrow!
I have been holding back on eyeshadow purchases. I have been getting cool indie ones..but decided that I needed to stop the big palettes except from my favorites Pat & Natasha Denona. Still trying to decide when to get the Pat palette. Waiting for a sale. So far no. Also plan on getting more of Lisa’s new lippies. Love the refill idea and the fact you can just use them without swapping them. Love the look
You have waited so long I think you can hold out a bit longer for the mega palette. ND hasn’t tempted me in a while. Yes I love that too the refills are functional but also just pretty to look at.
Just got back from vacation and was excited to see you had posted. I bought the EL foundation in a lighter color from the Sephora sale I'm using Fresco vs my darker shades. I like it better, I had used the same shade for so many years that I think it was time for a change. I don't tan anymore and am very pale. This 2N looks great on you. Mine is 2C something...
Nice to see you, dear Mariam. You look lovely 😊. I'm trying really hard not to buy anything. I got 4 "Divine Rose" minis (stumbled across the set, while looking up the holiday collection from one of your vids, of course 😂). It will be my advent calendar this year. Right now, I'm trying to resist getting Bronze Ecstasy and the 2 Bobbie Brown palettes (Milky Way and Star Crossed) from someone who's selling them for a really good price on "Kleinanzeigen". If they're still there come December, I'll get them. I have enough eyeshadow really but you make them sound so nice 😂
Hi Mariam, I have limited Westman Atelier products, I did not enjoy the stick foundation but forced myself to use them as they are so expensive to waste. I ended up using the lightest shade as a concealer which seems to work well. I have the eye pod in Tabac it’s nice but nothing to brag about, I have the blush stick in Minette which I love and actually use everyday it has a lovely finish and I have the highlighter stick again it’s ok but hardly ever use it. Basically I bought these products because of the ingredients and for whatever nasties it doesn’t contain, I think that Gucci’s look is the natural look and may not appeal to everyone. I enjoy your videos and wait for them to drop. Cheers
Morning beautiful! I do love this look verry much! Specially the eyes. The deep purple on you is gorgeous! I am curious for an update on the eyelash serum. It's in my cart for quite a while now....WA is a brand I don't care about for no special reason. I wanted to watch "Nobody wants this", thanks for reminding!
I will first finish up my last tub of the Glow For It and then I will start using the Estee one. I will keep you posted. Honestly, same. That's why I am a bit undecided.
Have you tried the Dark Star mascara and Permagel eyeliner by PML? Those are my favs! That PML eyeliner lasts all day. I’m now trying CT Exagereyes eyeliner. It’s nice but doesn’t dry as quickly. Comes in a nice glass bottle, but I still love Dar Star more. I’m so enjoying my Luminous Legends as well. It’s so versatile! Beautiful makeup look as always!🌸
Glow for it changed their formula awhile back and it stopped working well for me when they changed. It worked really well for me before the formula change 😢 It broke my heart. I’ve been trying different serums (with no prostaglandins only). Right now I’m trying Scorolash. I’m not sure if it’s doing anything yet (but it took me 2 tubes of the Glow for It to see results, too.) I’ve been trying to find serums that have similar ingredients to the old formula of the Glow for It. After I’m finished with 2 of these Scorolash tubes if I don’t think it’s working, I may try the Sweed serum. I’ll follow what you think about the Estee Lauder! I liked WA Biscuit shade. I also got the mini and it lasted 1 1/2 years! I don’t know how anyone uses the full size before it goes bad! The only downside for me was that it didn’t have a great wear time for me, so I didn’t repurchase it. I just bought the Patrick Ta duo in the brown/taupe Still at the Club. I really love it. Beautiful Pat pairing today!! 💕
Wait WHAT!!!??? They changed the formula!!????? I noticed the change in the design of the packaging which I actually quite like but I did not realize their f*^ked with the formula. Bummer! That definitely explains it and thanks for mentioning it because now I am sure I will not be repurchasing it. I will keep you posted om the EL one then. Fingers crossed! Tell me more about the infamous PT duos!?? How is the formula are they sparkly?
@ Yes! 😭 I have a screen shot of the old vs the new formula and on the company website they did a whole blog post about it. So the Patrick Ta duos are not all the same formula. Much like Pat’s special shade formulas, some are very sparkly and some are more smooth. In the brown duo (Still at the Club) the top shade is very sparkly. It has a warmer base and a cooler sparkle. It could be tapped on as a topper, but it does have a lot of base color too. The bottom shade is a smoother formula. It’s not as sparkle moment sparkly, but has a touch of sparkle and it’s a very pretty baked shade. It couldn’t be a topper, much like you couldn’t use Blitz Blue from Mothership I as a topper. I’m most excited by this one because I don’t have any baked shade from Pat or Bobbi Brown like these. I have one Chantecaille baked shade Elephant, but the Patrick Ta shades are completely different. Elephant base is much cooler that the PT. It has a touch more sparkle than the bottom shade in the PT but nowhere near as much as the top shade. Also the top PT sparkle is cool whereas the Elephant is gold. I also have the one with the silver/gold (We Need Better Lighting). BOTH of these are incredibly sparkly. It is every bit as sparkly as Pat’s Astral Solstice or Bobbi Brown Moonstone but is a bit cooler. (Coolest shade to warmest is Patrick Ta, Astral Solstice, then Moonstone). The silver can be used as a swipe on sparkle shade or as a topper. The gold in this one is very close in sparkle and tone to Astral Gold Allure in Iconic Illumination. On the eye they are virtually the same, but on a swatch you can tell the Patrick Ta is a little more yellow gold. You can use the PT as a swipe or a topper. I want the duo with the darker golds called Talk to My Team. It looks like both of those are the super sparkly formula. The other 2 duos are pinker and I’m not as interested in them at all, but I don’t know their level of sparkle. It seems everyone is not wowed at all by Do You Know Who I Am so I’m not sure if either of those have the super sparkly formula at all. Lots of people were angry at the price, but I think it’s fair. These are great baked shades. I am completely pleased with my purchases and hope he continues with the line. We have a limited number of BB baked luxe shadows and Pat seems to have abandoned her baked shades.
Hi great video, I have seen reviews of the pop shots and have noticed that its too emollient and doesn’t last very long, however nobody has tried it with glitter glue which you use regularly so it might not be an issue for you. Also clionadh has come out with some more wearable shades of their stain glass collection and there is a brown one that they released in their mystery box that might become permanent next year that I’m looking forward to.
Oh indeed that would not be an issue for me because I use both an eyeshadow primer and a gg. I have to say it is really the specific shade that I am so drawn to. Oh how cool that you’re excited for the Clionadh shade 😊!
Hi Mariam! I have 2 minis from WA (biscuit and petal) and I find them meh. I find the stick formula a bit to0 hard to apply directly on the face (I have to warm them up on my hand first so it doesn't disturb the foundation and I get the right level of pigment) and petal on me doesn't really have much pigment so I have to build it a bit ( I'm a 10/11 in Lisas foundation for reference). It was nice to buy them to "scrath the itch" but I've had them since december last year and I've picked them up 2 or 3 times since. I'd say save your money or get a mini, because at this price point the effort should be minimal. You can buy it in niche beauty (german store) and they frequently have 20% that includes WA, so you can save some coins. I've been lusting after VB makeup for a while and I almost bought it when they had the last sale some days ago, but they don't deliver in Portugal so I' d have to buy it via a re-shipping service which would add to the cost of an already expensive makeup so I decided to skip and wait to see if on black friday they offer a higher sale percentage. if you do get the CT single shadows do let us know your toughs. Have a lovely WE! Greetings from Lisboa :)
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, very useful! The mini in Petal is actually currently 20% off on CultBeauty. I am VERY close to ordering the pop shot and the mini blush to try them. Indeed a mini is more than enough for someone with a large collection like me. Ohhh bummer about VBB not shipping to PT, that is very odd...
I loved Nobody Wants This. Adrian Brody was on Gilmore Girls, and played very much the same vibe, only he was dating a Korean girl, and he was the one making changes, not the girl. I bought the CT Pop shot in Smoky Quartz, which I love, and the green one, which is less impressive. I have bought way too much makeup lately. Mostly stress shopping since the USA election. Really love the eye look today! Great layering choices.
I was really depressed after your elections. I figured if people are so eager to re-elect the orange baffoon who can barely string a coherent sentence together then the world is truly doomed. On a lighter note, I haven’t actually seen Adam Brody in too many things so I was not into him but he sure is a charismatic cutie. 🥰
@ct7531 Women all over the world are watching in disbelief as the Handmaid's Tale becomes actual reality in a highly developed Western country like the US, in the 21st century. What hope does that leave for women in highly religious islamic countries....
I really don’t get the hype around WA. I have a set of stick minis from a couple of years ago - a Lit Up highlighter, the contour in Biscuit and the blush in Petal. Completely unremarkable. Biscuit is nice enough, and a good shade. I use it but I wouldn’t buy it again. Petal is a bit warmer than it looks online and so it doesn’t suit me (I’m very cool-toned). The highlighter is essentially a clear balm. I do also have the pink superloaded highlighter, which is beautiful but not worth the £. I’d save your money if I were you!
Thank you for the feedback! I might actually try Petal then (warmer is better for my skin tone) and see if I will be impressed or remain lukewarm based on my experience with it.
I’ve been watching too many Nordic Noirs lately so I then had to run to your channel for the more pleasant aspect of life. 😁. I say your look today was one of the loveliest ever.
Hahaha I know right, sometimes you really go down the rabbit hole and need some light entertainment to feel happy again.
Thank you!

Sounds like a solid plan!
Thank you for taking the time to catch up with us. Really pretty look today. ❤
It was really fun and I had missed it. 😘
Yes! You would love the westman atilier blush and contour sticks. The formulas blend like a dream. They’re absolutely lovely. Probably my favorite of all her items. Petal is a great “basic” shade. I don’t see anyone with light to medium skin tones not loving it.
Noted, thank you for the feedback!
Hello, Mariam! Thanks for doing a new Pat-pairing video, I really like those ones😊I have bought CT’s pop shot in the Champagne colour and it is quite sparkly indeed. I have been eyeing the blue one (Cosmic Rocks) too, but I am reluctant to spend another 30€ for a single eyeshadow!
I feel you, they are so expensive.
I haven’t been buying much makeup at all, for months. But in the Sephora sale I got Patrick Starrr’s Oil Sucker primer and the Hourglass Dragon palette. I hope to try them tomorrow!
Hope you loved them both!
this look is absolute perfection 🤩🤩🤩
🥰😘
I have been holding back on eyeshadow purchases. I have been getting cool indie ones..but decided that I needed to stop the big palettes except from my favorites Pat & Natasha Denona. Still trying to decide when to get the Pat palette. Waiting for a sale. So far no.
Also plan on getting more of Lisa’s new lippies. Love the refill idea and the fact you can just use them without swapping them.
Love the look
You have waited so long I think you can hold out a bit longer for the mega palette.
ND hasn’t tempted me in a while.
Yes I love that too the refills are functional but also just pretty to look at.
@ yes…I think I can wait 😎

It is the foundation that always makes my skin look flawless and lasts like no other.
I marathoned The Great British Baking Show. It’s got plenty of drama without the gore😅
It sounds like grand fun! I think I would really enjoy it too.
@ I’m now up to 2024, so I have to wait a week for each new episode. 😳
@ And oh, they even have junior championships. Wonderful
Nice to see you, dear Mariam. You look lovely 😊. I'm trying really hard not to buy anything. I got 4 "Divine Rose" minis (stumbled across the set, while looking up the holiday collection from one of your vids, of course 😂). It will be my advent calendar this year.

What are the DR minis? Glosses?
Oh hard to resist they are all super good palettes.
@@mariam.a. The DR set is a Matte Trance, a gloss, a balm and a blush. I like the mini format - at least then I stand a chance of using it up 😂
@@africke744 Ohhh what a lovely set!

I have tried both. The liner was good, solid mascara but I actually like the Fetish Eyes better. I really enjoy LL too, no complaints here.
I think you'll like Westman Atelier, formula & packaging ( contour and blush).
Thank you for the feedback!

I think cult beauty always have 20% off with influencer codes ( hironscb or salicb). I just bought a patrick ta eyeshadow duo and it’s beautiful 😍
That is true but I have not been able to make a 20% code work on the darn pop shot. 😅 So far the best I got was 15%.
I have the CT pop shot in Violet and tbh it is very unimpressive formula. I would not recommend it 🫣
Ohhh thanks for the feedback! Good to know!
