Pat McGrath Sunlit Seduction Mothership Eyeshadow Palette ($128.00 for 0.68 oz.) is a new, seemingly-permanent addition to the Mothership range. It features three matte eyeshadows along with three standard shimmers and four "special" shades. Those special shades are high-sparkle, flakier/shinier, and have a chunkier (but a very high impact finish) feel compared to past Blitz/Astral shades (that have been domed). They are the same type of formula as seen in the Moonlit Seduction palette.
I think the formula should have come out with its own naming convention(s) as they aren't really like the Blitz/Astrals of the past, which isn't a bad thing, but they are pretty dissimilar, so it would be better to set expectations that they are different! They are more prone to fallout and tend to be best applied with a dampened brush or paired with an adhesive spray/tacky base to minimize fallout, improve adhesion and evenness, and ensure longevity. The brand's new eyeshadow primer did not really do a lot for me with respect to fallout or adhesion; it was the type of primer that worked well with most traditional eyeshadows but didn't go the extra mile with respect to tackiness.
Subjectively, I had issues with the shades muddying on me; the three mattes ran together, while the shimmers didn't offer a lot of differentiation so I think this palette is more suited for someone who does one or two shades at a time or will pair this with another palette.
