@LovelyDaisy  Yes, the formula is new for PMG blush, but the shades might not be. Kinda like the LuxeTrance vs. MatteTrance lipsticks: the formulas were quite different, but some of the shades were almost exactly the same (named different but still the same color). That's good if you want the same shade in both lipstick formulas. 

It'll also be good if you want the same shade of blush in both the original matte finish and new pearl finish. I personally don't need existing blush shades in a pearl finish—and I'm not confidently saying there's shade overlap here, since I won't know without swatch-comparing myself or seeing someone else's swatch comparison. I'm just saying I'm not buying this blush compact if the shades are too similar to PMG's existing blushes. 

[LovelyDaisy]

I don’t really have her blushes so I’m looking forward to this one also the swatches of the blushes for this collection are beautiful 😍 

[SportyGirly125]

@WinglessOne I think I might get the blush, eye and a nude lipstick.  Deciding between negligee and venusian pink

[Buootiful]

Ooh, if the blush trio was a purse with pearl handles, I'd get that in a heartbeat! Is that a highlighter in the middle of it? @SportyGirly125 😍

[SportyGirly125]

@Buootiful No, it's just a design.  There are only 4 shades in the blush and then a body shimmer on the bottom left.

UPDATE: sorry I see what you are asking.  The heart in the middle is a highlighter.

Dark Star 06 v3 - from top down; pigment alone, pigment with gloss over, gloss alone, pigment over black liner

 

 also of note, size difference between previous lab pigments vs single shadows

[Missnur]

Thank you for the swatches!! I've been debating if it is worth getting. I have everything in the set from other launches but the actual pigment.  💜

[Mochapj]

@Missnur I think if you like blueish shadows it's really pretty to have.

However, I've noticed on my skin tone (which pulls quite yellow olive) it leans more to the purple side of the blue to purple shift. I can still see the blue when it's moving, but it doesn't appear nearly as aqua blue on me as it looks in the pan.

[ZombieMetroAnt]

Something a lil different 😉

In celebration of International Women’s Day, Barbie has unveiled a one-of-a-kind doll created in the likeness of influential makeup artist and beauty brand founder, Pat McGrath of Pat McGrath Labs.

McGrath, who hails from the UK, is one of the most influential makeup artists in the world. “It is an honor having a Barbie in my likeness and I would be so happy if it in any way inspires anyone to follow their dreams and believe that with hard work, creativity and perseverance, everything is possible," McGrath remarked.

McGrath is among the twelve trailblazing women Mattel's Barbie chose to honor for International Women's Day 2022.

McGrath joins the lineup of female founders that are now Barbie dolls, chosen because they are business leaders and role models whose inspiration will help shape the next generation of female entrepreneurs.

Along with McGrath, these global female role models are now Barbies—
 - Shonda Rhimes (United States) - Founder of American Television Production Company Shondaland
 - Ari Horie (United States/Japan) - Founder & CEO, Women’s Startup Lab and Women’s Startup Lab Impact Foundation
 - Melissa Sariffodeen (Canada) – CEO and Co-Founder of Canada Learning Code and Ladies Learning Code
 - Adriana Azuara (Mexico) - Founder of All4Spas
 - Doani Emanuela Bertain (Brazil) - Teacher and Founder of Sala 8
 - Jane Martino (Australia) - Chair and Co-Founder of Smiling Mind
 - Lan Yu (China) - Fashion Designer
 - Butet Manurung (Indonesia) – Founder and Director of SOKOLA
 - Sonia Peronaci (Italy) - Founder of Italian food website, ‘GialloZafferano’
 - Tijen Onaran (Germany) - CEO and Founder of Global Digital Women and Co-Founder of ACI Diversity Consulting
 - Lena Mahfouf (France) – Digital Creator, Videographer and Author of ‘Always More’

I love that Mattel honored Mother with her own doll! 

Also, I love seeing your name pop up on my screen @ZombieMetroAnt 💕💕💕

A closer look at what's in the V3 Darkstar kit. A new shade of triochrome shadow and the eye gloss that was in previous versions:

[ChristalM]

@Mochapj Thanks! Wish I could just buy the shadow 😞 I don't want the other stuff sadly.

Oh no, so it doesn't seem likely those Bridgerton lipstick designs will be available, only the Bow packaging? 😞

[Buootiful]

I am definitely getting this! These probably won't stay around long enough to be available on Sephora, huh? Thanks for the info @SportyGirly125 

[SportyGirly125]

@Buootiful I have no idea if this new one will be a PMG exclusive or not like the highlighters.

[Sunnysmom]

Thought I’d compare some Pat M highlighters as well @makeitup305 , same brain! 😊And new palette.

Since the collection is restocking tomorrow, I figured I'd post my swatches, even though I'm a little late. @sister13 here are some comparisons of the highlighter.

 finger swatched and blended out

 the lighting wasn't very cooperative. From wrist to elbow: the bridgerton highlighter in the lighter shade, the holiday highlighter, the highlighter that came out with the blushes,the closest shade i have to the bridgerton one that's from a Nars palette from forever ago, and Ofra glazed donut (what i thought it was going to look like). 

I actually don't find it super blinding on the skin but when the light hits it just right it is very sparkly, probably a little more than most of my other ones but I wouldn't say glittery. It has a very slight almost grayish/silvery undertone that isn't my favorite but it's not very obvious. Hope this helps.

Beautiful @makeitup305! Love your swatches too!
