Makeup artistry
Pat McGrath Labs: makeup artistry and complexion
Translate creative imagery into an everyday gesture
Pat McGrath Labs is associated with expressive makeup and deliberate handling of textures. Effects photographed for a campaign do not always correspond to everyday application. Decide how much intensity you want to wear, then identify the products and tools that can serve that purpose using a controlled amount rather than reproducing every visible layer.
Break finishing effects into their separate roles
Powder, complexion makeup and setting spray fulfil different functions within the Skin Fetish range. A blurred finish is an optical makeup effect, not a permanent removal of pores or natural skin texture. Official categories help compare those references without attributing to skincare the visual results produced by coverage, colour and surface finish.
