Crazy that after I saw the post on here, I went to the site and order it. Then checked my e-mail and saw the e-mail from Pat saying the balms were available lol
They look so pretty I can't wait to get mine. If they're too shimmery, I will just dab some gloss and that should tone it down but hopefully the shimmer blends into the color which is why I wanted a darker shade.

I'm hoping they don't look ridiculous shimmery lol but show in a nice shimmer way. I'm sure they will be able to be toned down.

I held out on PMcG until Bronze Ambition...and I love it!
For me it is the perfect edit of her larger Mothership palette. Good size, great pigmentation, blendable, creamy, long lasting. A high end worth the coin! Hope this helps.

If you're going to use all the shades in the larger palette then I recommend the large palette. You get a better variety of shades all in one. The smaller palettes are good if you want to stay on the safe side but the large palettes are certainly worth it if you're going to use all the shades.

yes! very helpful, thanks! it will be less painful on my wallet for sure, so i'm glad you give it a good review!
i have one of the matte trance lipsticks (which i loooooove) and couple of those limited edition kits from before the permanent collection.
i like the limited edition stuff, but found it more difficult to work into my regular rotation. the lipstick on the other hand, i could easily wear every day...i hope the eyeshadow end up being like that.

good point - i'll have to compare the shades again for the two palettes.
i do prefer being able to use all the shades in a palette, but somehow that never happens for me, no matter how much i like the palette. there's always one or two shades that start to show pan while the lighter shades end up looking untouched in comparison!

I have and love Bronze Ambition and Platinum Bronze. They're amazing!
I have not bought any of the larger palettes because I think there are too many shades I wouldn't use to make it worth it.
I wear all the shades in both of the smaller palettes.

I prefer the larger palettes. I like the variety of textures and colors in the larger palettes. I think the larger palette feels luxurious. It is pricey but worth the money. I think it goes with the Pat McGrath makeup artist/lab type aesthetic of the line more than the 6 pan. The 6 pans are nice and I enjoy them but I get more excited to use the larger palettes.

I got my nude ls today. It bent on the first twist up I like it, not sure if I love it but it did make my lips very soft & the shimmer is nice, not crazy & it does come off the lips with cleanser without floating all over your face or remaining on the lips. My exclusive pink shade shipped.

It is medium opaque. Not too sheer but not full coverage. It just looks really really pretty on. I loved how my lips looked

Hey, be really careful when you guys open/twist the lipsticks up because the lipstick itself is very soft.

Got my pink balm today and it sooo pretty! The shimmer is certainly there but its more of a chrome effect vs glitter so it doesn't look gaudy. I've been eyeing the bronze shade and now I'm really curious but I have the flesh astral lipgloss so I don't really need the bronze balm. Lets see how strong I can be lol

I'm sooo happy you love it! It does have a duochrome look to it. I was reading the reviews on Sephora & a lot were disappointed that it didn't have obnoxious glitter I love how she did the subtle shimmer...and I hate glitter.
