Pat McGrath Celestial Odyssey Collection Swatches
Here are swatches of the remainder of the limited edition Pat McGrath Celestial Odyssey Collection. This post features swatches of the two eyeshadow quads, two cheek trios, and individual highlighter.
I wish Pat’s quad weren’t full of dupes from her own range. I’ve really lost interest in her eyeshadows (mainly the last 4 quads).. same old golds, champagnes and burgundy mattes. There’s official fan sites on fb all screaming for greens etc and no one listens!
Ohh no, Im kinda bummed that the lovestruck in Amber Allure looks more like Cherish than Lovestruck. I have Cherish so was excited to pick up two new shades. But now I think I will pass, thank you!!
Out of everything, I’m drawn to the cheek trios the most. Possibly Amber Allure?
Also, seeing the looks YT’ers have been creating with Bronze Borealis makes it a tempting choice for a super easy eye that doesn’t take any mental energy on my part.
These all look wonderful. Needless to say, my favorites are Lovestruck, Divine Rose and Rose Nocturne. I am definitely checking these out when in Seattle, along with shades that would suit my daughter. I sort of see these three as varying depth of a similar shade so perfect for adding some dimension to the face.
I was waiting for you to get these, Christine! I got my highlighter recently and really like it. I bought the 3 darkest blushes with the original blush launch so no need for the trios. The quads are a no for me, even though they are gorgeous (too much of the same bronze-y, gold, etc.). Everything swatched really well.
Out of these I picked up the single highlighter and the Deep Space Divinity quad. I already had the single blushes and highlighter from the lighter trio. I have to be honest, I’m so disappointed in the quad! I wish I would’ve gotten the Bronze Borealis instead, because even if it’s the less interesting of the two at first glance, at least it’s more user friendly. The shades in Deep Space make me look like I got punched in the eye and I feel like the quality is not the same as her usual formula. The packaging and smaller pan size on the quads are also disappointing. I will use this as a lesson to wait for reviews and not just trust that one of my favorite brands will always be perfect, I guess. I fell for the bundle deal and the 10% discount at launch, but it’s not worth the savings when I’m still out $50 for a quad I won’t use.
Bronze Borealis is just a gorgeous warm toned quad with shades that I love. The only catch is that it is so expensive here….
I like two of the blushes, I might even have them on my WL. It’s one from each palette, Lovestruck and Divine Rose.
As for the rest, I don’t see it as anything that would add to my collection, I think I have more than enough of the type of shades in the quads.
Beautiful! I am relieved though that I just got the lighter cheek trio. The others I don’t think are must-haves for me.
