The ultimate wearable luxury. Its soft mattes and glowy shimmers are flawless across all skin tones. Pricey, yes—but worth every swipe.
🥈 2. Pat McGrath Mothership X: Moonlit Seduction
Type: Luxe | Bold & Romantic
Velvety pigments, glassy metallics, and Pat’s signature drama. A collector’s dream, though not your average “daily” palette.
