 Hey guys, what is up? Welcome to my channel. For today's video, we are gonna do some Pat McGrath gossip and I'm going to be covering the holiday Celestial Odyssey collection from Pat McGrath. I don't have the items, so this isn't a review. The collection's launching tomorrow, so I'm just gonna go over the items, the pricing, my thoughts, whether I will be picking up the items or not, as well as comparing the items to last year's holiday collection or previous years and also showing you what I do have that's in the collection. So if you want to talk about this new holiday collection from Pat McGrath and get ready with me, then just keep watching. Let's get the major details out of the way. So this collection is launching tomorrow, September 23rd at 9 a.m. Eastern time if you have the VIP code. I will put the link down below where you can put in your email and then they will email you at 9 a.m. The code to get early access or you can also make sure you're following me on socials because I always post the early access code there as well. And then at 10 a.m. just one hour later, the whole collection will be available without an early access code. She's been pretty good about stalking her items lately so I don't think there's a huge rush. I don't think anything's gonna sell out but also I'm not sure. I've been surprised in the past but as of lately, she's done a really good job with her stock. So I do have the link down below for you for early access. And then of course, if you're watching this the day that it launches later on, the link to shop is down below. So this collection, it's big but it's not the biggest holiday collection Pat McGrath has had very heavy on the eyes, a few cheek products. And there are lip balms in the collection but I'm gonna pass on those but we'll get into that when we get there. We're gonna start off with the juicy item first. So you can take a look at all of these items on the Pat McGrath website. We're gonna start off with the big eye. Now there aren't too many bundles on the site right now. She might go ahead and add those later but it looks like there are a couple of bundles with the big Mothership Mega palette. So there's one that has the eyeliner and the mascara which I really like but those don't last a long time. They both dry out really fast but they work great. And then one with the Dark Star mascara and the eye pencil. I'm going to go ahead and pick up the Mothership Mega Celestial Odyssey palette. That guy is $78. This is the second time she's done a palette in this style. The layout is a little bit different from last year and I will show you that in a second. But let's take a look here. There are 18 shades in here and obviously I'm going yet to pick this palette up. It doesn't look like there's a ton of mattes. There's only four but if there's one brand that I will allow that from it's Pat McGrath because don't get me wrong, her mattes are good but the shimmers are where she gets the job done. So I'm going to take advantage of that. I went as much shimmers as possible from her. She's launched a palette of this size only once before and that was last year for the holidays and I'm really excited because I like the size. I like the layout a lot. Her palettes are typically a lot heavier. They're like this black, lacquered packaging right here. Very, very weighty, very luxurious but I like that the price on this is a little bit lower. Obviously $78 is a lot but you're getting 18 shades. It's cheaper than her regular mothership palette which has that heavy packaging and is $128. So as far as getting the biggest bang for your buck as possible when it comes to Pat McGrath, this is going to be one of her best deals. So these guys are going to be nice and thin too which makes them a little bit easier to store and for travel though. I'm really protective over my Pat palettes. I don't travel with them because I don't want them to break. So the packaging this year is red. I'm sure it's beautiful as ever but I have to say I love the pink packaging from last year. It looks like there's also going to be these ribbons to keep the palette up. This one is like more traditional cardboard palette style packaging and last year also had 18 but you can see that the layout is different from last year's. I personally like this, the little logo that's in the center that says Pat McGrath. It just makes it look a little bit more messy to me. It's not that big of a deal but I just kind of prefer it to be simple in line like this. Anyways, taking a look at the color story and I'm going to start getting ready at this point. I like the color story. It's a little bit sporadic for me. It doesn't seem to be much of a story but there's 18 shades and I feel like you can create a ton of different looks with this. I know Madison Beer at the Met Gala. She wore those green shades in the bottom. Beautiful, I'm obsessed with those greens. I wish she had played more in the blues and greens as a Pat McGrath fan. That's what we've been asking for for a long time and there's fun teals in here but we still have those golds and we still have those peaches. I'm going to be honest, I wish there wasn't those golds and those peaches because those are in literally every single one of her palates. Pairing this color story to last year, the color story from last year is a little bit more up my alley. The go and I saw this, I knew I had to have it. This one, I feel like it's going to be beautiful in person. I'm excited about it. I feel like you can create a ton of different looks with it but I prefer last years if that makes sense. Still looks beautiful and the thing with Pat McGrath, even if I talk my trash in the beginning, I'm always like shook when I open it in person because it's Pat McGrath and her shimmers are so beautiful so I'm going to like it but first glance, not in love with it but nonetheless, I'm really excited about this. I'm excited to create looks with this. I feel like the looks I'm going to get are beautiful. So that is kind of the main attraction here but there are also two other palates. Again, a very eye heavy collection. So there are two Celestial Odyssey looks quads that are going to come out. Immediately, my first thought was I thought that these were repromotes. They looked so familiar to me and I want to dive into that with you guys. So let's take a look at Bronze Barillis, I believe is how you say it. Now I'm getting this information off of Temtalia so I will link that down below if you want more info on the collection. It looks like these quads are going to be $54 or around that price point and immediately when I saw this palette, I thought of, I believe this came out two years ago. This isn't from last year's holiday collection, the Blitz Astral Quad in Ritualistic Rose. Now the formulations are different in the new Bronze Barillis. So there's going to be one velvet mat, one shimmer and then two foiled metallics whereas in this Ritualistic Rose, it's all for the Blitz Astral formula so they're really shiny, there are no mats but regardless, the color stories themselves are kind of the same, you have a gold, you have more of like a mauve-y shade, a pinky shade and a little bit more golden. I mean, these are a bit different. I would say of the two quads I'm talking about today, these are going to be the most different from each other but similar vibes. Would have liked to have seen something different because I feel like with these quads, especially, it gives her an opportunity to really go ham with a color story that's a little bit more crazy. So if we got something really subdued, I'll swatch these for you. I do think though that these are going to be different because of the formulations and I will be able to give you guys a better judgment once I get the palette because I will be ordering this. I think if I didn't have a YouTube channel, I might have contemplated not picking this one up because the colors don't look that unique but I'll let you guys know. But as far as if you have this, I think that they are going to be different enough because of the textures. That being said though, these colors have already been in the Pat McGrath line already. I think if you have the Divine Rose palette, honestly, you have similar shades into this quad. So it's not one of the items that I'm most excited about. It's probably of the eye palettes, one that I would recommend the least just because this has already been done before from Pat McGrath nonetheless. I'm still excited to try it. And then this one, I'm going to use this palette on my eyes today. I could have sworn that this was a re-provoked, definitely. So the new Celestial Luxe Quad is called Deep Space Divinity. And the formulas that we're getting in there is one matte, one foiled metallic, one shimmer, and then a 24 karat duochrome sparkle. So that is already stepping up from last year. So this was from the Holiday Collection last year. This is the interstellar icon, but you can't tell me at first glance how similar these are. You have that reddish shade, the brown shade, the blue duochrome, and a champagne. Literally the same colors, it just looks like they're going to be different formulations. I'm going to use this palette on my eyes today. I said I was going to get ready and I'm just chit-chatting too much, but this is one where I would say yes, the formulas are going to be different, but the colors are almost exactly the same, at least through what I'm seeing online. So if you have last years and you're looking to save a buck, again, you can probably miss out on this quad. The one from this year looks more beautiful because it has duochromes, and by that being said, this shade right here is a slight duochrome. It has a blue with a plum shift to it. I'm really excited to get this one so that I can compare for you guys, but these look very, very similar. So I'm going to refresh my thoughts on this quad. I'm going to use it today, so that way it is fresh in my mind for when I get to this quad in the mail. But again, if I didn't have a YouTube channel, I would argue that I wouldn't be picking this one up just because it's so similar to the last one. So I'm going to start off with this deep burgundy shade right here in the outer corner. Now I will say, here's a positive on these quads, and especially if you don't have the two quads that I just talked about, they're a great way to get the Pat McGrath luxury experience because it's kind of like a mothership palette cut down and it's $54, so it's much less than one of her regular mothership palettes. You get that expensive luxury packaging and you get four full-sized shades. So it really is like having a mothership palette without having to pay that hefty price tag. Sure, you get less shades, but it hurts the wallet less with that purchase. So I really do like these quads. They aren't any less in quality by any means. They're still great Pat McGrath quality. It's just odd to me that she would choose, oh my goodness. It's odd to me that she would choose these colors because they look the same, like they do. I was hoping for something different. A couple years ago for the holiday collection, she came out with a palette that was really bright and colorful for these quads and it was really, really exciting because it was so different. And not the case this year. They're kind of, we'll see. Like I said, take this with a grain of salt. I haven't actually tried them yet. We're gonna keep it really, really simple. I'm gonna use the duo chrome shade. We're gonna put this all over the eyelid. Okay, and then I'm gonna go into this shade right here and this in the inner corner. Oh my gosh, I forgot how pretty this quad was. I haven't picked it up in a while. So I'm excited that I chose to, ouch, I hit my elbow on the table. I'm excited that I chose to film this. And we're going back into the crease shade that I used. Now this is a shimmer. Not that I'm reviewing this right now, but this is a shimmer, but it still works great in the crease. You don't really need a matte shade because I can't help it. We're gonna take this shade. We're gonna run it along the lower lash line. I mean, this is the look and this is what keeps me running back to Pat McGrath. It looks gorgeous. I'm gonna do some liner and lashes and then we'll talk about the next very exciting products in the launch. Right, if you need to know anything that I'm wearing it will be linked in the description box, but we are gonna talk about the cheek products now. We got some really fabulous cheek products that I'm excited about. So she is launching two different styles or colors of the Divine Blush and Glow Trio and we've never seen a style like this before from Pat McGrath. This is her first ever cheek palette because she did just recently in the last few months launch her first ever blush formula. So there's gonna be one which is very clearly for lighter skin tones and then another style that's very clearly for deeper skin tones. It looks like it's about to rain, so let me turn the lights up a little bit. There we go, we gotta keep it nice and bright. I'm not picking up the Amber Allure Trio. So in this trio, it's the Love Shruck Blush Paradise Venus and Venus Nectar Highlight. This one just isn't for my skin tone. I didn't buy these blushes to begin with because they wouldn't be for me. So I really am excited about getting these in a trio. It says online that these are gonna be $52 according to Temtalia. That's a fabulous deal. So if you couldn't get her blushes before because you didn't wanna spend the price for a single blush, it's a great deal to get not only two of her blushes but a highlight formula. And this is gonna be consistent with her normal, well hopefully, blush formula. These are her divine blushes. So the other trio is Galactic Sun. Now in this trio, you are getting Divine Rose Blush, Desert Orchid Blush, and Golden Nectar Highlight. So I'm gonna show you them. I won't be getting this only because I already own the blushes in here and the highlight in here. But if I didn't have these, I would have definitely picked these up. So I am gonna be skipping on these two blush palettes. They're, I'm sure gonna be amazing and a great value. And I highly recommend if you're interested in trying these blushes, but I already have them. So let's start off with the Divine Rose Blush. This is what it looks like. It's a gorgeous Moby Tone blush. I think this is the one I'm gonna use today on my cheek. And here's the swatch. Really pretty. Let me put this on. Gonna use my blinged brush with the blinged handle. Yeah, this looks really good with this eye look. Just so you know. It looks like that this outside color that I use is a little bit more plum than what's gonna be in the actual quad from this collection. The one from this collection looks a little bit more warm and red as opposed to this cooler plum kind of shade. But this blush, it goes perfectly with the look. Love this blush. Absolutely gorgeous. I honestly think she picked my two favorite blushes from her blush collection in this trio. The other one, this one is my all-time favorite blush. My most used from the Pat McGrath line. This is Desert Orchid. And it's this gorgeous toasted orange with a golden reflex to it. I normally don't like the look of warm blushes on me, but this one is my favorite. I grab for this one a ton. It's definitely my most used. So I'm really excited for this trio because my two favorite blushes are in here. I cannot recommend this one too, but enough. And then we have the Golden Nectar Highlight, which this is to date. My favorite highlight that Pat has come out with. And most of all, what else is coming? Because she's come out with some highlighters that I didn't like before. This one is so beautiful. It looks really smooth on the skin. Here's my swatch. Look at that. Okay, so let's see. Gonna use my Sonia G. What are you called? Detail Brush. How pretty is this? My skin looks golden and glazed with this. My favorite highlight that she's ever come out with. So I cannot recommend either of these trios enough. I like the colors that she chose for these. And if you're around my skin tone, you need to get your hands on the Galactic Sun because beautiful colors. She did a great job with that. Okay, and then the next item that we have is the Sublime Skin Highlighter in Lunar Nude. This looks beautiful. Tantalia says it's gonna be $60. Very pricey for a highlight. So it's gonna have to be one kick but highlight. It says this is an opalescent gel powder highlighter. And I love Pat, but I can be a little bit skeptical about her highlights because from her holiday collection last year, she came out with the Sublime Skin Highlighter. Okay, and I hated this highlight. The packaging's super heavy, really lux. The formula, not worth the price whatsoever. I'll swatch it for you guys, not that it matters because I don't recommend this. This one I'm worried because it does have like a gel formula. I wonder if they're going to be the same formula. I hope not because I just wasn't a fan of this. I want it to be consistent with the highlight that I just put on. Do we think what are the names? They're both called Sublime Skin Highlights. So I don't know. As far as the packaging, it looks beautiful. I love that gold detailing that's in the mirror. I think that makes it look so much more lux. I don't want to tell you to not buy it, buy whatever you want. But if I were in your position, I would probably wait for the reviews to see if it's worth it because $60 for a highlight, that's a lot. Honestly, it's not worth it, period. But we got to see at least if it's a good quality highlight. I like the color. It looks like it's going to be beautiful. The packaging, the embossments, I'm a huge fan. I'm just a little bit worried about that formula. It sounds like it's going to be the same formula as this one. But we will see. So I will be picking this up for experimental purposes. Probably wouldn't have if I weren't in your position. Now there are two remaining items left in this collection. And these are the Lux Lip Balms. One is in Naked Rose, which looks like a pretty rosy brighter color. And the other one is Nude Temptation, which is going to be a little bit more subdued. While I'm talking about that, I am wearing Pat McGrath Dream Lover Lipstick. And I'm going to put faux real lip gloss on top. But I'm not going to be getting these. I don't feel like spending how much is it? $25 on a Pat McGrath lip balm. I'm just, I've never really been into her lip balms. I don't like the kind that I have to use my finger to apply. So I'm going to pass on these. I'm sure the formula is good. But for me, the price isn't really worth it. I'm not into lip balms or the lip balm trend. So for me, what I'm going to be picking up are the big palettes, the two quads, and the highlight. I'm skipping on everything else. Would have picked up the blush palettes had I not already owned the colors. We have covered all of the Celestial Odyssey collection that we'll be launching tomorrow from Pat McGrath. I used some of the products from last year's Holiday Collection, as well as some other releases that will be in the collection. And I love this look. Pat never disappoints that no matter what.
