This was the first Pat McGrath palette that made me open my purse Though I’m not in love with the packaging art, I love the color story. After seeing the swatches several places and live on YouTube, I gave in to the temptation and not only ordered the palette but went for the bundle with the two blushes and highlighter. I think why it was THIS palette that got me to make my first Pat McGrath palette purchase is how wearable it looked. I don’t do makeup for the ‘Gram but actually do makeup to wear in my everyday life so the previous palettes – though beautiful – just didn’t speak to me for wearing. The previous palettes were gorgeous and so artistically exquisite – not to mention those shade names and descriptions. Though I appreciated the fantasy of it all, I dint want to put money on something I would not wear on the regular. This palette I know I will be reaching for over and over again. It is also very fall and winter friendly – which is where my heart is at right now when it comes to eyeshadows. .Prior to buying the Celestial Odyssey, I did have my eye on the latest mini palettes from Huda but the swatches of those didn’t;t live up to the hype for me as how they look in the palette – plus I have singles that dupe a lot of these so I passed on the Huda minis.
Hmm, just wanted to add – upon second thought the palette is more springlike – though there are a bunch of the shadows that do look fall-like when you see them together in a swatch line up.
HUDA Wild Obsessions Jaguar, NARS Climax and MAC Feast Your Eyes
It was the Huda Jaguar palette, which I ordered based entirely off Christine’s review (and I’m not at all disappointed).
Other than the Sydney Grace x Temptalia trio it was Menagerie Flight Club!
It’s been around for a while tbh, the MAC Nude Model Art Library Palette, but I only saw it live recently and I thought it looked even better. If I were going to get one it would probably be this one, it being so neutral really appeals to me. If it were more matte and less shimmery I probably would have gotten it by now. I bought too many shimmery singles recently and I’m trying to be wiser with my money. Then again, with Covid going on in the world, eyes really are the window to the soul and the only thing strangers will get to look at!
So true so true Andrea, I find myself asking what do I need bronzers, contour or even blushes for. Just give me some concealer, eye primer and all the eyeshadow makeup I can feast my eyes on. Lately I have been trying out my blushes on my eyes.
PML Celestial Odyssey Mega MTHRSHP for me, also. I’m still undecided and want to see more reviews first, BUT it sure is pretty.
There’s been a few great ones from ColourPop that caught my eye to the point of my purchasing them: Tinkerbell and Like A Virgo. I would also love to get another one of Huda’s Wild Palettes, it’s the pink and purple one, but I probably could dupe it with what I have. As for new releases, at first I was extremely interested in the PML Meta MTHRSHP until I realized that it was pretty much a neutral palette with a pop of blue and green. Seeing that I do have her Nocturnal Nirvana quad, I probably don’t need it. The other one that I’m somewhat interested in is CT’s newest quad that has one good crease shade, plus gorgeous, glowy pearl shades!
Yours Christine – the On the Horizon Light palette caught my attention and it has definitely lived up to expectation.
Gucci Beaute des yeux floral palette based strictly on the packaging. It reminds me of something my grandmother would have had. Color story is quite generic and its probably way over priced….but its beautiful packaging 😍
MAC Feast Your Eyes, I bought it, didn’t like it, tried it again and now I love it.
I have looked a lot at the latest PmG Celestial Odyssey Mega MTHRSHP, but I didn’t feel I needed it, and after seeing the swatches here it was an easy decision to skip it.
HUDA Jaguar because the color story is right up my street (though I probably don’t need another smoky eye palette), and PML Huetopian Dream, because at this point I’m just a Mothership palette collector.
