Patrick Ta Major Dimension III Matte Eyeshadow Palette Seals the Deal that Matte Is In for Fall 2023
Patrick Ta Major Dimension III Matte Eyeshadow Palette ($70) is coming and it totally seals the deal that mattes are back for Fall 2023 (especially considering the Danessa Myricks Groundwork Palette is serving up mattes too!). I don’t mind so much! A few years ago I’d totally be ranting about mattes but a lot has changed. I’m older and I appreciate mattes more BUT most important of all mattes have evolved so MUCH! My introduction to mattes was REALLY not a good one. 10 plus years ago mattes were dense, dry, chalky, patchy…it wasn’t a pretty experiencing trying to apply matte eyeshadow. It dragged across your eyes like a razor blade. So much has changed with mattes and my hate for them has diminished and my love for them has grown!
Part of that love is due to Tarte. Seriously, back in the day Tarte was like one of the only brands I can remember doing soft, silky mattes. They were just lovely! My personal favs nowadays though comes from Etude House. I love their single shades and of course, some of their palettes are awesome too. I have so many of Etude House’s single shades it’s obscene. I miss them doing collections of these. It’s been a while!
Shades include:
- Mandatory
- Refined
- Classic
- Staple
- Needed
- Essential
- Crucial
- Fundamental
- Trademark
- Irreplaceable
- Non-Negotiable (Cream)
- Impressive (Cream)
Anyway, the My Major Mattes Eyeshadow Palette will feature incorporate cool and warm tones in one palette. There are 12 shades total two of which are creams that can be used to line and define (or perhaps even as a base for powder).
The question that demands answering though is this new and innovation? No, it’s not. It’s been done a million times over. The main difference here is it hasn’t been done by Patrick and in Patrick we trust right? Patrick Ta’s formulations are pretty darn awesome. So, if you’re thinking, “I have shades like this a dozen times over” you’d be right. However, if you LIKE Patrick Ta makeup this eyeshadow palette may be tempting enough to warrant a purchase.
Patrick Ta Major Dimension III Matte Eyeshadow Palette will be available September at Sephora and on Patrick’s website. What do you think? Is it worth indulging in?
