It had a mix of brighter, fuchsia sparkle and more tone-on-tone ruby red sparkle. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that applied fairly evenly, though it seemed a little splotchy along my lower inner lip area. The consistency was as smooth as I’d expect for a glittery lipstick, but I could feel some of the sparkle/glitter in it as I applied as well as when I wore the color. What was most impressive with the formula was how shiny it was and how long that shine stayed on for as often the shine wears down, but it was both sparkling and shiny with a “wet” look, despite not being slippery on. It wore well for almost six hours, barely left a reddish stain behind, and was moisturizing while worn.Top DupesFormula OverviewIngredientsTop Dupes View Swatches View All DupesPat McGrath Blood Rush (P, $38.00) is less shimmery, darker, warmer (90% similar).MAC Strawberry Torte (LE, $17.50) is less shimmery, brighter, warmer (90% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Dazed (LE, $55.00) is more shimmery, more muted (90% similar).Bite Beauty Cherry on Top (P, $24.00) is less shimmery, warmer (85% similar).Ciate Hollywood (P, $19.00) is more shimmery, darker, less glossy (85% similar).Milani Mattely In Love (06) (LE, $8.99) is less shimmery, darker, cooler (85% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Stunner (LE, $55.00) is more shimmery, darker, warmer (85% similar).Urban Decay Daenerys Targaryen (LE, $18.00) is less shimmery, darker, warmer (85% similar).Colour Pop Surprise (LE, $6.00) is darker, cooler, less glossy (85% similar).NYX Acme (P, $7.50) is more shimmery, darker, cooler (85% similar).View SwatchesFormula Overview$38.00/0.13 oz. - $292.31 Per OunceThe formula is supposed to have "one-stroke colour" with "ultra-reflective pearls" paired with a "silky" and "creamy" texture that yields "multi-dimensional shine." The pigmentation varied from shade to shade with more medium to semi-opaque pigmentation that "full coverage," and the amount of shimmer/glitter also varied significantly from to shade. For example, Blitz Trance has a very glittery look on the lips, whereas Flesh Fatale had a subtle, sparkling finish. They had a lot of shine, though, with being wet in feel or all that glossy, which seemed to linger for longer than the average lipstick--the shine didn't immediately dull after taking a sip of something or talking for a few minutes.The consistency was lightly creamy with moderate slip, but it didn't feel too thick or heavy, so the color didn't slide around on my lips and adhered evenly for the most part. Shades that were more glittery felt that way in the tube as I applied them to my lips with the glitter being less noticeable on my lips, though those who may be more sensitive to glitter may find it at least somewhat apparent--at the very least, this formulation is not disguising the texture of all that sparkly goodness. They were lightly to moderately hydrating, comfortable to wear, and lasted between three and five hours. I feel like the best way to sum these up as: they're sparkling and luminous with medium, buildable color payoff that lasts an average length of time. They did not have any scent or taste from what I could tell!Browse all of our Pat McGrath BlitzTrance Lipstick swatches.Ingredients 16 6 Rebel Red Rebel Red A-Permanent Where to Buy Affiliate Links SephoraPat McGrath LabsSelfridgesBergdorf Goodman Int'l Retailers Sephora (AU)Sephora (CA) 16 6 Where to Buy Affiliate Links SephoraPat McGrath LabsSelfridgesBergdorf Goodman Int'l Retailers Sephora (AU)Sephora (CA)8.5Product9Pigmentation8.5Texture10Longevity4.5Application90%Total 01/09View All Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick View On One PageFlesh Fatale Pat McGrath Flesh Fatale BlitzTrance Lipstick ($38.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a muted, reddish-copper with warm undertones and gold and pink pearl and larger sparkle. It had good pigmentation with a smooth, lightly emollient texture that glided across my lips fluidly without tugging. I wouldn’t describe it as “full coverage,” and the formula has enough creaminess to it that over-applying can result in product getting into lip lines. This shade had noticeable shimmer and sparkle, but it wasn’t the most sparkly shade in the range (which may or may not be your cup of tea). I found it had lots of shine that was visibly apparent for hours (including through drinking a cup of tea) and only started to wear down at the four-hour mark (and it lasted for about five hours on me). The formula felt comfortable and was hydrating to wear.Top DupesFormula OverviewIngredientsTop Dupes View Swatches View All DupesEstee Lauder Naked Ambition (120) (P, $32.00) is more shimmery, darker, warmer (90% similar).Revlon Goldpearl Plum (P, $8.49) is more shimmery, lighter, warmer (90% similar).Pat McGrath Flesh 3 (P, $38.00) is darker, warmer (90% similar).MAC Forbidden Romance (LE, $19.50) is more shimmery (90% similar).Ciate Infamous (P, $19.00) is more shimmery, cooler, less glossy (85% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Daniel (DC, $36.00) is more shimmery, lighter, warmer (85% similar).Too Faced Wham (DC, $22.00) is more shimmery, darker, cooler (85% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Snowdon (P, $36.00) is more shimmery, darker, cooler (85% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Blake (LE, $36.00) is more shimmery, warmer (85% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Casino (Blake) (P, $54.00) is more shimmery, warmer (85% similar).View SwatchesFormula Overview$38.00/0.13 oz. - $292.31 Per OunceThe formula is supposed to have "one-stroke colour" with "ultra-reflective pearls" paired with a "silky" and "creamy" texture that yields "multi-dimensional shine."

ZAnd now I’m relieved that Flesh Fatale won’t be my cup of tea upon further inspection. I do *not* need to spend more money this holiday season on makeup.Thanks for the reviews!
ConnieAs it wore off, did the lipsticks leave glitter behind or just the stain? Or is there variation between how the different colors wore?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Both, and obviously how much glitter/sparkle remained was also tied to 1) how much was in the respective shade (not all shades are the same), and 2) whether one did a lot of eating/drinking etc.
Nancy T Medium-Tan, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin. »Uh oh. Both landed solidly and squarely on my redonkulously lengthy WL. Since they’re supposed to be on Sephora’s site Friday (?), I may just have to nab these two w/ the 20%!
Brenda CWell, in a moment of weakness I purchased the whole set, I couldn’t just pick one or two colours. I can’t resist Pat. It hasn’t shipped yet, so I’m patiently waiting to adorn my lips with sparkles.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Let us know how you like ’em!
dzymzlzy Light, Neutral undertones. Normal-to-Oily skin. »I ordered Flesh Fatale. I think it was a good choice. Can’t wait until it arrives.
hitomitojiteIt is so much less sparkly on the lips than in the tube. It has the most sparkly fine sparkles in it. So stunning. I don’t usually wear red though if only this is in a peachy or pink nude I will not be able to resist buying one… There must be one in the collection, right?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I posted swatches of all the shades I have earlier!
Deborah S. Fairest, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Dry skin. »I picked up 2 of these and am patiently waiting for them to arrive. I got Rebel Red and Club Kiss. I love how these look on and while I am not a fan of glittery lipsticks I loved the colour of these so much that I had to try them. I am hoping that I love them!!
Seraphine Light, Neutral undertones. Combination skin. »I don’t like sparkles for myself, but these are absolute stunners!
Wednesday Light, Neutral undertones. Dry skin. »These always seem a lot more exciting in theory and description for me. Glad I dodged.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »They’re nice, but I don’t think they are as special/revolutionary/innovative relative to the rest of the PMG line. There’s just something missing to make them ooh la la to me. The longevity out of the shine was the big “wow factor” to me but I don’t know if that justifies the price.
Sarah Medium-Tan, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Ugh I love these. Shimmery without being too frosty
Ashley OrtizHello Christine,How would you say these compare to the PMG Sheer Colour Lip Balms? Aside from sparkle, are the textures similar at all?Thank you. : )
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »A bit, but I’d say thicker, more emollient in a way – like 70% Sheer Colour Lip Balm and 30% LuxeTrance if I had to combine two formulas she has.
