@ChristalMI'm glad I'm not the only one feeling letdown by this launch, I was feeling like the only person not getting the hype. I 100% expected to be ordering the other two palettes after I received this one, I never even imagined I'd be considering returning it.

[ChristalM]

I just feel like there is something I am not getting. I wanna love Pat McGrath. Everyone else seems to find it Amazing! BUT NOT ME 😞

I am wondering if I return these after returning the Decadence will they ban me for returns. I think the Pat McGrath palette has been the only thing I returned in years.

I also posted this in the Haul group...I needed all of them.  The pink isn't swatching that great for me, but I'm excited to try it on my eyes.

oh man 😞 I was eyeing platinum bronze, but it looks more diverse in the pan vs swatched. brown on brown on brown. 

[6ixGirl]

@fantaji on me, platinum bronze plays color and more neutral than brown, and the purple shade is like purple grey. 

[blackkitty2014]

Your Platinum Bronze swatches are the best i saw so far @texasgirl79 😉

[texasgirl79]

@blackkitty2014 I'm glad my swatches helped you!  I swatched all three palettes quickly in my office yesterday.  Playing with makeup is way more fun than work 😛 

[blackkitty2014]

I 1000 percent agree with you on that  @texasgirl79 😉 Please report back on how they perform on the lid. 

[Luvstravel]

Thanks so much for the "true" swatches. i will probably pick one up next month during the sale.

Temptalia has swatches of the La Vie En Rose Mthrshp

PMG Bronze Palette
Sorry the swatches aren't great, it's night with no good lighting. If anyone wants daylight swatches let me know! I did these with a synthetic brush and no primer. Notes: The first shade is much more champagne than the fourth one although you can't tell in the swatch, it's true to pan. The dark brown has micro glitters in it. WHY PAT WHY?! It's the only one that looks like it could let me down. I'm gonna try it on my eyes tomorrow. They're all super creamy and soft. 

[sarahshter]

very interesting thoughts about the new Palette @makeitup305 I haven't bought any of these yet so I was interested in how it performed. did you find a big difference when it was applied with a synthetic brush and/or did you try it at all with a natural brush? thanks for your thoughts! still trying to decide which one to get. I splurged and got a few other pallets but these are still tempting me. 😍

[makeitup305]

@sarahshter I usually find that shimmers apply better with a flat synthetic, something like a MAC 242. In this case, it also helps them look more opaque and metallic. Also, a wet brush really helps that brown with micro sparkle. They are all incredibly soft, so there is some kick up without a wet brush.

Swatched the Bronze Ambition palette in store

[blackkitty2014]

Did you have a chance to swatch the Platinum palette @Mochap? I ordered Decadence and the Rose one. I allow myself to pick up one more (with GC) 🤪 but I can’t decide between Bronze and Platinum

[michelleshops]

Hey @blackkitty2014 here goes! (I’m attempting to post from mobile 🤞🏼)

The mattes are not as creamy as her big palettes (tbh they felt very dry) but the shimmers are beautimous.  

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you so much @michelleshops 

[Mochapj]

@blackkitty2014 I didn’t. This is the first time the Canadian stores are carrying anything from PMG and they only seemed to have the Bronze one so far 🙁 

i think @michelleshops might have some swatches from last night’s swatch party

[michelleshops]

Adding my swatches of the other two for science 

[fieldsofclover]

@michelleshops Thank you for posting these 👩‍🔬👩‍🚀🔬❤️

[Clidre]

Thanks a lot for your swatches! I don’t know.. I only like euphoria (the shimmery lilac) from La vie en Rose palette, and the peachy shade as well. I’m still thinking though... That packaging looks so impractical...
