Pat McGrath BlitzTrance Lipstick Swatches
The just-released Pat McGrath BlitzTrance Lipsticks ($38.00 for 0.13 oz.) arrived just before lunch, and I wanted to get swatches up ASAP as they’re 10% off with code BLITZ10 today (launch day). There are eight shades but we won’t see Electra arrive until later in November. They are permanent, and they’ll also launch on Sephora on November 2nd. The shades Blitz Gold and Electra are exclusive to Pat McGrath’s website.
Oooh I like the finish of a few shades quite a bit! I will keep an eye out for those as the website makes duo’s with one mattetrance and a coordinated blitztrance!
Thank you for getting these swatches out so quickly Christine! These are so pretty!
Can you feel the glitter in the lipsticks? Is the texture gritty at all? Thank you for posting swatches of these!
This is my question, too. They’re so pretty, but I hate feeling any grittiness on my lips.
Okay, so I need Pat McGrath to slow her roll, as the kids say. I can’t keep shelling out this kind of money but I have precious little resistance. Two of these shades are right in my comfort zone which should be a reason to buy different shades but luckily the two I really like are the only two I would actually wear. I have a few metallic lipsticks and in general, the formula doesn’t bother me although I hate when the pigment wears off and you are left with glitter or micro-shimmer on your lips. I am going to pick up either Rebel Red or Club Kiss today. I am leaning towards Rebel Red. Sometimes I have a hard time determining if a lipstick is completely opaque on your lips because I know where your lip mole is and so I am not sure if I am seeing it through or just know it is there!! I feel like I can see it lightly through several of these shades but I think for Rebel Red I can put up with that!! Thanks for the quick swatches, Christine.
I’m thinking the same – I can’t keep up right now with her releases, they are all so beautiful! I do hope it’ll be a while before they bring out new things, my wallet can’t take it, haha.
At the very least these are permanent, so I can buy the ones I love a few at a time and I won’t be feeling like I have to rush and get them, like I do at the moment with the new limited edition mini palettes 🙁
I love you for informing me that these were permanent, Christine, as I was anxious that they were limited edition and I would have to buy them ASAP before they became out of stock without having seen reviews or proper swatches, just because of my massive FOMO when it comes to Pat’s products!
I never got around to commenting on your post on transparency in reviewing, but I have basically grown up with you as a voice of reason in my makeup journey, and the respect that you garner all over the world in the beauty community is astounding and a strong testament to your ethics and hard work. Cadeau!
Thank you, Lyra! 🙂
How do i pick between Fuschia and Orchid??? And yes, is there any glitter left behind as they wear? Why do these have to look so good? ACK!
Hi Connie!
I literally JUST got these only a few hours ago so all I focused on was getting swatches done, edited, and posted but haven’t tested these yet. I’m so sorry!
Not a bronzey one at all – sad face!
Esp considering cyber and fuchsia read so similar. A bronze would have rounded out the collection beautifully.
there is a shade called “Electra” that is supposed to be released soon, maybe 11/01? It’s copper as opposed to bronze but it’s gorgeous and very different from the ones that are already out. FYI.
Hi Genevieve! I’m not sure if you saw this but there is one (Electra) that isn’t available yet. It’s coppery as opposed to bronze but I think it’s beautiful and might give it a try when it’s out. Just FYI.

I love Rebel Red! The hint of pink and the sparkles make it really pretty.
My wallet is crying, I want all of them. I know the quality. Pat is killing me!
Omgosh Christine!! ? Thank you for getting these up so quickly. They are stunning! Nude Romantique, Flesh Fatale and Rebel Red look gorgeous and very wearable.
I bought club kiss and cyber orchid today and so happy I did! They ar so beautiful ?. I also have my eye on the two nudes that are being sold as a duo. I agree with some of the comments, Pat McGrath needs to slow it down! She is quickly making me broke!!! Lol
First of all, thank you so much for posting these swatches so incredibly quickly!
And then secondly, I’m gonna be one broke old ? before PMG slows this train down! Club Kiss, Rebel Red, Flesh Fatale and Nude Romantique are drop-dead gorgeous shades, especially Club Kiss!
Christine you’re awesome! Thanks for the getting the swatches up so fast! I’m eyeing Flesh Fatale ?
Nude Romantique was the only shade I’m interested and thankfully at the $52CAN price I can pass on that one. SWatches much appreciated with all the holiday bombs.
Christine thank you for getting these on the site! Do you know if the set includes Electra which is sent separately, or is it sold separately altogether? Looks like the latter.
Electra isn’t available yet. I’m assuming you are referring to the Kit for $225? It says what shades are included on the site – doesn’t include Electra!
Oh these are lovely. Nude Romantique and Flesh Fatale, and maybe also Rebel Red, are on my radar. I half hope they review poorly to make the decision for me, and the other half hope they excel.
Thanks, Christine! You are so thoughtful! I was bummed that Pat took down the eyeshadow palette bundles since the release of these lipsticks. I waffled on them and would have bought the bundle now!
They’re there now if you scroll down the page past the new lippies ?
I ended up getting the palettes bundled with one Mattetrance and one Blitztrance lipstick. So for $175, I got the three e/s palettes and 6 lipsticks (including 3 Blitztrance!). I gotta say PML probably pulled some business directly to her website by offering these bundles.
That’s incredible! Maybe my math is off but I can’t figure out the 3 palettes and 6 lipsticks (bundles) for only $175 total. I just bought the 3 opulence palettes bundled for $125 with no lipsticks. I might be looking at the wrong place on her site? Thank you.
No, your math is right. I just got the lipstick duos, lol! And I was so excited! Ah well…
Ok, got it. when you stated that you “got the 3 e/s palettes and 3 l/s bundles (6 lipsticks total) for $175” I couldn’t figure out how in the world you did it. Thanks for the clarification!?
I ordered Nude Romantique this morning and now seeing this I want to order Flesh Fatale for sure. The other colors are gorgeous but intimidate me. But Rebel Red is so aaahh-maaay-zing that I just may break down and order it too.
Wow! They’re all pretty!
Thanks a million for getting the swatches posted for us so quickly!
Eeeek!! More stuff for Sephora cart!
Oh! Glad I have time to wait on a review since these are permanent!
Thank you for swatching these! I was very tempted after seeing the packaging, but now I can see that only Flesh Fatale *might* suit me. And that’s too high of a price-tag for a maybe.
Beautiful gold and fuchsia!! Cyber Orchid looks very similar to the Fuchsia (? )
Hi I actually received 4 yesterday including Athe Fuchsia and Orchid. On my lips, which are very pigmented, they do look practically the same with the Fuchsia being a little brighter. Also the Nude and the Flesh, with the Flesh being a little darker. They do leave a nice stain behind (with sparkles). For reference my lips are a natural mauvish berry color.
At $60 AUD, I don’t think I can justify purchasing, shame, packaging alone sold me.
Hi Christine ! I am curious if you have any information on the Electra color. It hasn’t been released and I am curious if you know anything. Thank you!!!!
Sorry, I don’t have it!
