Attitude
Pat McGrath Attitude LuxeTrance Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark brown with warm, rosy undertones and a cream finish. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, creamy texture that was a bit emollient compared to the average shade in the formula. I didn’t have any issues applying it, though, and the color still adhered well to the lips for long-wear (six hours). The formula felt hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$40.00/0.14 oz. - $285.71 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have a "intense color payoff" with "comfort" and "rich hydration" that has a "satiny sheen." Of the shades I've tried, they are richly pigmented, long-wearing, incredibly comfortable to wear from start to finish, hydrating, and generally flattering on the lips.
The texture was smooth, velvety, and creamy enough to glide across the lips with ease but never felt slippery or too clingy. Most shades performed exceptionally well, and while pricey, they at least lived up to a lot of the claims. There was no discernible scent or taste.

Beauty Junkie
Pat McGrath Beauty Junkie LuxeTrance Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a bright, medium fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a satin finish. The pigmentation was opaque in a single layer, while the texture felt velvety and just barely creamy–it felt more like a hybrid between the LuxeTrance and MatteTrance formulas to me. The color applied evenly and lasted for seven hours on me, but there was a smidgen of color that settled into my deeper lip lines over time. I found the lipstick was moisturizing while I wore it.

Wrecked
Pat McGrath Wrecked LuxeTrance Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark berry with subtle, cool undertones and a natural sheen. It had good color payoff in a single layer, which was buildable to full coverage with half of a layer more. The texture was lightweight, thin but not too thin, and just creamy enough to slide across the lips without dragging. The color adhered evenly and stayed on well for over seven hours but felt comfortable and lightly hydrating while worn.

I would like to win the lottery so I can buy the entire Pat McGrath LuxeTrance line of lipsticks. There are too many gorgeous shades to choose from. I just want them all!!
Wouldn’t we all!
Wrecked has something going for it that the majority of deeper berries and plums do NOT: rich, EVEN pigmentation. That has me very much interested in it as a future purchase!
Also, Attitude! Beautiful shade of rosy brown! Was worried that my favorite brown lipstick from MAC was going to wind up on the “dupe list”, but nope, no Royally Riotous showed up there.
It’s so nice to see vampy shades do well!!
This entire line is gorgeous! Great to see them perform consistently well, too. It’s nice when luxe products live up to their name, and price tag ?
Pat McGrath is certainly putting out some gorgeous lipsticks this year. Love Attitude.
Christine, I love the eye look you’ve shown here. Would you mind sharing the details…what goes where? Thanks.

Thanks.
Deserve is lovely.
These are so beautiful and I notice even the boxes are uniquely designed. Really cool attention to detail. I think Beauty Junkie here and Ultraness and Lavish from another post are gorgeous. Can’t remember seeing such a highly rated lipstick launch since the Nars Audacious which is my super favorite. I didn’t know anything about Pat McGrath but I read all about her and was so impressed. I am really trying to resist these because falling in love could be an expensive rabbit hole! I really want Ultraness though!
I like Attitude a lot, a lot more than I actually thought I would. It’s a great fall to winter transition color.
