Bronze seduction was my first mothership that I got almost 4 years ago. I love love love it. I prefer cooler colour stories now but this palette has some of the best special shades
I’m LOVING these types of videos! Love the way you compare brush bristle selection based on formula, love the long form content, love visiting older (more interesting tbh) palettes. I didn’t experience these releases live as I got into eyeshadow during the pandemic, but I’ve been finding I’ve been filling in my collection with older releases from Natasha and Pat as they’ve restocked instead of having interest in some of the newer formulas/color stories available right now. Your channel is an awesome resource and just totally chill vibes, so thank you😊
i was definitely one of those people sucked in by Bronze Seductuion, and i do agree, that was probably the peack of golden age for PML. i actually think the first Mothership was the most iconic - we have never seen anything like it in the main stream makeup (im specifically thinking of the blitz astral shades), and people went nuts for the cool tone pallette after years of warm tone being pushed on us.
Bronze Seduction is the Holy Grail! YES IT IS! I panned about 6 shades in this palette- when I say panned I don't mean a dot of pan I mean scraping the sides.. destroyed to the point where I feel that I could really buy a replacement- Every time I word Bronze seduction .. compliments for ever! Even when I go into Sephora.. all the employees are like "you're wearing Pat McGrath right?"!!! YAYASS LOVE I AM!!
Such amazing timing! I just ordered Bronze Seduction yesterday. I stacked an Ulta 20% coupon and $60 in points and got it for $47. Whoot! Now, Ulta has the most awful reputation for horrible packing and breakage, so my fingers are triple crossed for this palette. My mouth dropped open when you showed it in the lavender case! Gah! I never saw that before! So beautiful! Lately, I suddenly became determined to complete my Motherships. Still need to get Decadence, but it's been OOS for a long time ... I hope it's coming back!!😟😟 I can wait a while to get Sunlit Seduction because ... well, we know ... but I am going to get it eventually, and then I'll be complete!
When I got Bronze Seduction last year, I gasped and quickly played with the palette for an entire week. It’s such a good everyday palette for richer skin tones with more variety than the monochromatic palettes as of late.
I don’t even have this palette but just enjoy watching your process. I also GREATLY appreciate your use of makeup that you already own. Thanks for all that you do!
As someone who was starting out makeup years ago. That was my first mothership and I remember the thrill I got purchasing it in sephora. Despite the hard to blend mattes (for an unexperienced me back then) her brand was the start of my glitter and PMG obsession and where I'm known for my glitter eyeshadow looks i tend to use at the hospital as a nurse lol. This was where I found your and a few of my other favs channels. I have always loved your looks and now that I'm years in with experience and love for makeup I've found the time for lighter makeup looks. I miss the older days of PMG releases though. Regardless this mothership will always carry a special role in my makeup journey❤ thanks Alicia! The irony as I was planning to use it tomorrow with velvet laison😅
I feel as though the first wave of motherships (the trio) started a conversation about the brand. However, Bronze Seduction is the moment where most of us (consumers) bit the bullet and grabbed it up! The brand became even more attractive to me because I felt like I could actually create great looks with mothership V. The first 3 were extremely challenging for me because I didn’t understand her brand and how I could fit but now, I love Subliminal and Subversive!
I understand why a makeup company would cater to the masses and give them what most of them want (pink neutrals here). But the minority that likes a midnight sun for example, they really love it, so I think there should be something for those customers too, maybe make a smaller inventory of products or something. It’s always a shame when something disappears just because fewer people like it, those few may in fact love it.
Yeah I didn’t realize how unpopular earth tones are. I was hoping Sunlit Seduction would’ve been Midnight Sun 2.0, but we shall see what the brand creates next!
Love these videos, they make my PML palettes feel new again - and it’s funny bc I initially wanted to buy one of the new palettes solely for the iridescent green shade … this video reminds me that I already have her most beauty ethereal baked green
Ahhhh! Alicia! I just want to take a moment to acknowledge and be grateful for your creativity, passion, history and overall knowledge of the products you choose (I might argue curate) for us. I am loving these revisit videos. I’m continuously inspired by your looks and I love to replay old videos while I work! I’d love to see a revisit to the Byredo Remembrance pallet. I LOVED your looks, and you are THE reason I purchased that pallet and now Midnight sun (and will be replaying those videos nonstop 😅), I will also now be saving for V & IX
Thank you so much!! I wouldn’t mind diving back into Byredo 🙆🏽♀️ It’s one of my favorite releases this year, and I need to hold myself back with combining all the colors.
Thank you for the Bronze Seduction inspiration! It was my first Mothership, because I could not decide, but Mel said it was her fave. ❤ But I am light/medium and it can be tricky to use. By the way, Midnight Sun is my all time fave as well. 😍
I have so many indie multichromes and special sparkly shadows that I love from like Clionadh, Terra Moons, Shine by SD, Bella Beauté Bar, MBA Cosmetics, etc. so it would be hard for me to want to buy one of these, but if I ever do finally bite the bullet on a PMG palette, it would 100% be Bronze Seduction. It looks so stunning! It’s definitely my favorite color story she’s done. Thank you for sharing! Loved this video ❤
I feel like her first 3 motherships were iconic because they established her brand as a more complete line, rather than just being known for her lipsticks. I think bronze seduction and divine rose 1 were the start of of the golden age that brought the brand more mainstream with the allure awards and large Sephora displays
I think PML became a guilty pleasure for me after Divine Rose II. The newness and innovation and the artistry had faded and the expense and quality were all that remained. Thank you for revisiting this palette. It brings back the excitement. Your application tips are always welcome too.
I hope these videos do well for you in the algorithm cause I’d love to watch a series based on the history of iconic makeup products and then demos, why they were iconic.. I know you have extensive knowledge on PML but if u wanted to expand I’ll be first to watch hehe 😅 I love this concept overall, it just brings older products back to life ❤
I know most people have a warm undertone, but as someone with a cool undertone, MTSP 1 STILL has me heart to date. Always appreciate your knowledge and insight Alicia 🤗💕
What?? Terrible blending skills?? You?? O never! NEVER!!!!? No not you. You’ve got awesome blending skills and watching your videos and listening to you is like a Cyclopedia being read back to me. Yep, a beauty encyclopedia how to book. Love your videos love the explanation on everything. Thank you so so much you educate us all on such a deep level. Seriously. Thank you.
Some wonderful looks here, you make it look so easy! And I could listen to you talk about PMcG’s palettes all day, you give us such a fascinating insight into the shades in each one. Looking forward to the next one! xx
I think Bronze seduction put Pat on the map for the masses. I think the existence of two browns made it appear more approachable than 1-4. Plus warm tones were all the rage at the time a la Modern Renaissance. I think people were then blown away by the texture and features of the special shades. I agree that the deepness of the mattes require some deliberate usage/placements. I love it just to stare at the twinkles and amazing transforming shades. It’s also good Halloween dramatic makeup!
Bronze seduction was my first pat mcgrath palette I splurged on and it's by far my favorite. When I want that sparkly arkly on myself and my clients I pull out those Astral shades, phenomenal
Bronze seduction isn’t the MOST iconic to me but it is iconic in my opinion. Bronze seduction was the palette that got me into Pat because it is more everyday. She got me hooked!
Bronze Seduction was my first, Midnight Sun, then Divine Rose II, and the holiday motherships - love them all. Been considering Divine Rose I. Your videos always give me new ideas for looks. Makes me think the palettes are worth the investment. I think the appeal of Bronze Seduction is that you can get more everyday looks with the matte shades.
I love Bronze Seduction out of all the motherships, this one is my favorite. But my Holy Grail-Best of All Time is still Urban Decay - Born To Run Palette. 💝 has everything you need!!!
If Alicia Archer does not have the most gorgeous eyebrows on earth, I do not know who does. They are perfection. ❤ I can only wish mine were a tad like hers 😂
I was already a fan and collector when this came out. The way Entrapment kicked my ass. I went into the office with a smokier and sparklier eye than intended, on top of my less than great blending skills.. every time. 😂😂😂😂 it was a fun time. (Looking absolutely nuts) 🎪
Bronze Seduction was my first Mothership, and it's the only one I've ever given away. I hung on to it longer than I would have otherwise if not for Extreme Aubergine, Rose Gold, and Blitz Flame. I've heard the two bronzey shades have been reformulated since then, which is good because the ones in mine were unusable. I still have six Motherships (1, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10) and haven't had those issues, and I love them ridiculously. Edited to add: Bronze Blaze in the mini is reformulated and is everything it should be.
So I had to stop the vidgeo right b4 the demos to tell u a quick story … I LITERALLY CRIED OVER BRONZE SEDUCTION 😢😂😩😭😭 true story !! I was soooo obsessed with decadence & subversive that when I thought I would miss out on Bronze Seduction (& I thought it was LE) I cried to my partner !! She was shocked lol 😅 to say the least 😂 but it was at THAT moment both of us realized my OBSESSION for makeup & Mother Pat’s MS’s palettes 😂 ps … I’m not the only one that’s cried over PMG (Patty) who we all love cried over a quad !! 😂 ugh I love her & all of us makeup obsessed !!! ❤ kk now back to the rest of the vidgeo 😅😊🤓🙌💃🏻🤣
My mind, my soul, my body - whats happening?! Totally agree with you on this palette, it is my time to shine palette, i took it out for weddings several times. Thanks for high quality content here❤❤❤
Loved the video!! I really like how much info you give us. And how you explain the info. Great videos!. ETA- I love all the looks. You are so talented. You get me excited to pull out my Pat palettes. I love it!
I watched sooo many PM eyeshadow palette reviews (some of yours being the most watched). Bronze Seduction is definitely my favourite too, it brings the basics and the drama all in one go. My 2nd fave is Divine Rose II. And i agree, after that palette nothing really ever came close to my personal faves. Huetopian Dream is kinda cute, but I can wait until it's like 1/2 off... that's how much I got Bronze Seduction for.
Of the 9 Motherships I have, Bronze Seduction ranks towards the bottom (although I love the Fire Opal and rose gold shades). I struggle with feeling inspired to use it. Gilty Pleasure and Bronze Blaze are duds > formula-wise. It's a fan favorite but not for me. Soooo, I'm here for inspiration - as I know Alicia BRINGS IT!!! *Now, back to focusing in on the 'show'*
That palette looks gorgeous on B you! I really love your in depth videos! Your use of words to describe and appreciate shutting from brushes to individual shades of just do delightfully, entertaining, informative and professional! Obsessed!!
Bronze Seduction is the one that got me to drink the kool aid. The special shades I just couldnt pass up and the mattes in the palette were exactly the type of mattes I get a lot of use out of. I did get it on sale though 😆
❤ You inspired me to pull this one out again to try Blitz Flame with Rose Gold 005. I usually only use Blitz Flame around holiday/Christmas time but now I feel like you made it approachable. ❤️🎉
I don’t have this palette yet and I’m not sure why I haven’t gotten it! I’m a late bloomer on the Pat palettes, I’ve just started using them in like the last 2 years or so. Midnight Sun was my first because I got it on sale. Then I got I, II, and III in a set for cheap! Huetopian dream is the only one I paid almost full price on. I just recently broke down and got the divine rose I. Kind of wishing I had gotten II instead. Thank you for revisiting these palettes! It definitely sparks excitement to use them again!
#sparkleeveryday 100%! I did a matte brown look recently and had to compensate with purple highlighter. My students look forward to see what colors I’ll play with and even put in requests 😅 I’m so busy, I’ve had to put my paints away and haven’t even gone out to take photos in, what feels like, ages, but playing with makeup every morning helps to keep me sane. 💛
Bronze seduction is holy grail and iconic. Its what i bring on vacations with me especially international. Its very dark skin girl friendly. Day looks. Night looks. Smokey. Holiday. No makeup makeup. Its everything. My most used. No thinking. The looks put themselves together.
Great demonstrations! I love your creativity when combining the shades. You always give me lots of inspiration. This mothership was my very first Dame PMG palette, so it will always be very special. Thanks for reminding me to use it.
I bought Bronze Seduction with my Sephora Rouge points. Bronze Blaze and Gilty Pleasure were so deeply disappointing that I thought it HAD to be a faulty palette. I exchanged for ND Metropolis. Great palette, no disappointments. I then repurchased Bronze Seduction in a 30% sale on her site hoping it was a better “batch”. Those specific shades did work better and I kept it but I realized after watching one of your extremely informative vigeos :) that the formula IS different and intentional. Ok, I still smh but the rest of the palette is so stinkin’ good I just roll with it. Thanks Alicia ❤
I too had to learn how to apply those shades. And the reason why I didn’t reach for the palette often, because the textures weren’t as seamless to use like Midnight Sun. Or even Divine Rose II!
I love all my palettes, but i do have favourites. Especially when i think people are sleeping on them or don't trust Mother. My skin colour is medium deep so its DR1 for every day cool pink neutral looks all the way - Velouria looks gorgeouson me. And you'll be prising Fleur Fantasia out of my cold dead fingers - eyes, cheeks and lips, so beautiful! But DR2 and the Celestial Divinity MTHRSHP are my favourite big palettes.
I must say guilty pleasure is such a divine shade. Mine became hard pan immediately after use. I quickly realized this palette wasn’t as wearable as I thought (not for work, anyway). At the time, I found myself reaching for the ABH Jackie Aina palette which had similar colors.
I skipped bronze seduction... Weird right? It is a beautiful palette and I had my eye on it forever... until ND Bronze palette launched and I said, Nope... I don't need both. ND's bronze palette hit that grungy steampunk glam tarnished dirty bronze story that just suits my vibe. I don't regret it.
I think the golden age was the first the palettes. They were new, fresh and completely innovative. Bronze seduction was a resurgence or silver age because while there was excitement, especially from people who had never indulged before, it wasn't nearly as new or innovative compared to the market particularly if you had purchased the holiday six pans
I'm not sure if anyone else sees it but I think of Mothership 1 and Mothership 5 and 2 sides of the same coin. They're the same kind of colour story but in cool and warm tones.
Love your content & hearing your opinion on PML in that you’re so obviously passionate about & I also respect your opinion on the direction that brand is heading in. Btw, is Bronze Seduction in the STUNNING lavender case for sale somewhere for purchase?! I didn’t see it linked….thanks!! 😊❤
Your deep dives into the Motherships have become “must see tv”. There’s a throwback phrase. This was the only Mothership I owned, but unfortunately I lost it in Hurricane Ida when our house was hit and I lost most of my collection. I know, it still hurts. 🥹 I’ve been going back and forth with what to add back into my collection. Right now I’m considered II, III, VI, X and repurchasing V. You make it hard to decide with your commentary. You not only showcase the color story, but the textures, and the versatility of each palettes, which when you’re spending this amount of coin on, really does factor into the decision making process. The hubby already knows that this is what I want for my 47th in January, so I have a lot to think about! ❤ It’s been two over two years, and I do have the Celestial Osyssey to tide me over, but I do want a Mothership back! Bring on the looks!
Midnight Sun will always be my fave. It's everything I want in a palette. I thought I would love Bronze Seductione more but I didn't. The variety I love is not there for me.
Just saying….. but I got Midnight Sun in the special Star Wars packaging for the packaging based on you love for the palette. And I absolutely regret nothing! I love it. I mean…Blitz Violet Orchid….Blood Moon…. Astral Solstice… Wicked Envy…. Just stop it right now!!!!!!!
I wish Pat McGrath would have done a neutral palette with the original baked formulas. Since we have seen many palettes with neutral tones recently. Also, would have loved to see an entire palette with the original baked formula with a color story similar to when she had the all shimmer palette. Just pick another color beside pink! Pick different tones of brown, green, purple, orange, warm tones, or cool tones. Just no more pink!!
Bronze seduction was my first mothership that I got almost 4 years ago. I love love love it. I prefer cooler colour stories now but this palette has some of the best special shades
Same
Same for me too
So true for me as well.
Same here, my first one and looooveeeee it! To me it screams fall/winter 😊
Same here!❤
I’m LOVING these types of videos! Love the way you compare brush bristle selection based on formula, love the long form content, love visiting older (more interesting tbh) palettes. I didn’t experience these releases live as I got into eyeshadow during the pandemic, but I’ve been finding I’ve been filling in my collection with older releases from Natasha and Pat as they’ve restocked instead of having interest in some of the newer formulas/color stories available right now. Your channel is an awesome resource and just totally chill vibes, so thank you😊
Oh Alicia!!!! Thank you thank you THANK YOU for these deep dives!!!!
These make my little makeup lover heart swell with pride 🥹♥️
i was definitely one of those people sucked in by Bronze Seductuion, and i do agree, that was probably the peack of golden age for PML. i actually think the first Mothership was the most iconic - we have never seen anything like it in the main stream makeup (im specifically thinking of the blitz astral shades), and people went nuts for the cool tone pallette after years of warm tone being pushed on us.
Bronze Seduction is the Holy Grail! YES IT IS! I panned about 6 shades in this palette- when I say panned I don't mean a dot of pan I mean scraping the sides.. destroyed to the point where I feel that I could really buy a replacement- Every time I word Bronze seduction .. compliments for ever! Even when I go into Sephora.. all the employees are like "you're wearing Pat McGrath right?"!!! YAYASS LOVE I AM!!
Would it be possible to get a picture of your panned palette? It's my kink.
Such amazing timing! I just ordered Bronze Seduction yesterday. I stacked an Ulta 20% coupon and $60 in points and got it for $47. Whoot! Now, Ulta has the most awful reputation for horrible packing and breakage, so my fingers are triple crossed for this palette. My mouth dropped open when you showed it in the lavender case! Gah! I never saw that before! So beautiful! Lately, I suddenly became determined to complete my Motherships. Still need to get Decadence, but it's been OOS for a long time ... I hope it's coming back!!😟😟 I can wait a while to get Sunlit Seduction because ... well, we know ... but I am going to get it eventually, and then I'll be complete!
I did the same thing last month, now all I need is Decandence
Yes I need the lavender packaging 🤩
When I got Bronze Seduction last year, I gasped and quickly played with the palette for an entire week. It’s such a good everyday palette for richer skin tones with more variety than the monochromatic palettes as of late.
I don’t even have this palette but just enjoy watching your process. I also GREATLY appreciate your use of makeup that you already own. Thanks for all that you do!

I am a midnight sun girl. I love that palette., but I love earthy tones. This one never really interested me for some reason.
I saw the thumbnail and started playing the theme to Rocky in my head! 😂😂😂
I feel as though the first wave of motherships (the trio) started a conversation about the brand. However, Bronze Seduction is the moment where most of us (consumers) bit the bullet and grabbed it up! The brand became even more attractive to me because I felt like I could actually create great looks with mothership V.

Love, love, love your long form PM videos on the older palettes. And your nail polish colors are always fab.
Love these videos, they make my PML palettes feel new again - and it’s funny bc I initially wanted to buy one of the new palettes solely for the iridescent green shade … this video reminds me that I already have her most beauty ethereal baked green
That's why I didn't buy the one with the two green shades.
Ahhhh! Alicia! I just want to take a moment to acknowledge and be grateful for your creativity, passion, history and overall knowledge of the products you choose (I might argue curate) for us.
I am loving these revisit videos. I’m continuously inspired by your looks and I love to replay old videos while I work! I’d love to see a revisit to the Byredo Remembrance pallet. I LOVED your looks, and you are THE reason I purchased that pallet and now Midnight sun (and will be replaying those videos nonstop 😅), I will also now be saving for V & IX
Thank you so much!! I wouldn’t mind diving back into Byredo 🙆🏽♀️ It’s one of my favorite releases this year, and I need to hold myself back with combining all the colors.
Thank you for the Bronze Seduction inspiration! It was my first Mothership, because I could not decide, but Mel said it was her fave. ❤ But I am light/medium and it can be tricky to use. By the way, Midnight Sun is my all time fave as well. 😍
I bought midnight sun when it first premiered and I absolutely love it.
Bronze Seduction is one of my least used motherships. It ranks low for me. I’ll give it a whirl this fall and maybe my feelings will change
Same here ! I have almost all the motherships and use it only once a year…. Some I use at least once a week..
I have so many indie multichromes and special sparkly shadows that I love from like Clionadh, Terra Moons, Shine by SD, Bella Beauté Bar, MBA Cosmetics, etc. so it would be hard for me to want to buy one of these, but if I ever do finally bite the bullet on a PMG palette, it would 100% be Bronze Seduction. It looks so stunning! It’s definitely my favorite color story she’s done. Thank you for sharing! Loved this video ❤
Hey hey! Yes I have a few indie shadows, but I love completed color stories. Like Isamaya’s Industrial 2.0 😮💨
I feel like her first 3 motherships were iconic because they established her brand as a more complete line, rather than just being known for her lipsticks. I think bronze seduction and divine rose 1 were the start of of the golden age that brought the brand more mainstream with the allure awards and large Sephora displays
Agreed!
I think PML became a guilty pleasure for me after Divine Rose II. The newness and innovation and the artistry had faded and the expense and quality were all that remained. Thank you for revisiting this palette. It brings back the excitement. Your application tips are always welcome too.
Thank you, Catherine 🥰 Happy to know that these videos are helpful!

I had no idea there was a lavender case for this palette 😮😮😍😍
What?? Terrible blending skills?? You?? O never! NEVER!!!!? No not you. You’ve got awesome blending skills and watching your videos and listening to you is like a Cyclopedia being read back to me.

Thank you, Kate!!
It was the 1st PML that got my interest but the sparkle caused me to pause…until DR. Guess I’m part of the mauve mafia issue🤷🏾♀️
The palette that started all things Mother for me...hi friend
This palette was sitting in my purgatory pile and I'm snatching it out immediately. Will play with it again ASAP! Thank you for re-sparking the joy!
Woohoo! Free from purgatory! 🤣
It is my favorite pat pallete. Also my frist Pat Pallete..
I think Bronze seduction put Pat on the map for the masses. I think the existence of two browns made it appear more approachable than 1-4. Plus warm tones were all the rage at the time a la Modern Renaissance. I think people were then blown away by the texture and features of the special shades. I agree that the deepness of the mattes require some deliberate usage/placements. I love it just to stare at the twinkles and amazing transforming shades. It’s also good Halloween dramatic makeup!
I don’t know what age it was but for me it was Mothership I through VI. I like VII through XI but they are my least worn palettes.
I love these “revisiting previous palettes” videos. Makes me pull them out and use them.
oh I love that purple packaging LOL! I wasn't a collector then or I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat!
I couldn’t stay away 😮💨 The lavender packaging is so lovely!
Hi freeeennnndddd!!
Hey hey!! Thank you for stopping by!
Bronze seduction was my first pat mcgrath palette I splurged on and it's by far my favorite. When I want that sparkly arkly on myself and my clients I pull out those Astral shades, phenomenal
They go off, for sure! 😍
Bronze seduction isn’t the MOST iconic to me but it is iconic in my opinion. Bronze seduction was the palette that got me into Pat because it is more everyday. She got me hooked!
Holiday for sure. This is the last palette I picked up. I resisted for many years but here we are 😂My first was Divine Rose 2.
Oooooo Divine Rose II is one of my favs!
Bronze Seduction was my first, Midnight Sun, then Divine Rose II, and the holiday motherships - love them all. Been considering Divine Rose I. Your videos always give me new ideas for looks. Makes me think the palettes are worth the investment. I think the appeal of Bronze Seduction is that you can get more everyday looks with the matte shades.
I love the masterful way you apply the shadows with so much skill! If only I had that and be 30 years younger, lol! I am getting better though.
💕🙈 Thank you! Always happy to share!
I agree that the first 3 were her golden age. ❤❤❤❤
ROUND 1= STUNNING ❤❤🩷🩷💝💝
ROUND 2~ Eye #2 🎯💯🔥🔥💝💖🩷
ROUND 3~ GORGEOUS❤❤
YOUR Techniques are BOMB 💣‼️
Hi Alicia, Happy October everybody
👋 😊 🧡
I love Bronze Seduction out of all the motherships, this one is my favorite. But my Holy Grail-Best of All Time is still Urban Decay - Born To Run Palette. 💝 has everything you need!!!
If Alicia Archer does not have the most gorgeous eyebrows on earth, I do not know who does. They are perfection. ❤ I can only wish mine were a tad like hers 😂
Thank you, you are so kind! I was thinking of microblading, but maybe I’ll just stick to my pencil! 🙆🏽♀️
I am a little late to the party BUT both looks in the third round brought me to tears!!! Stunning, stunning, stunning. I loved this video. Thank you!!
Thank you! I had fun creating these looks, and happy that I dove back in!
Timestamp 48.28 onwards- so so rightly put Alicia !! ❤
Thank you!!
I was already a fan and collector when this came out. The way Entrapment kicked my ass. I went into the office with a smokier and sparklier eye than intended, on top of my less than great blending skills.. every time. 😂😂😂😂 it was a fun time. (Looking absolutely nuts) 🎪
I just wanted you to know how much I enjoy these videos. I love your analytic eye and it’s like makeup history for me! Love you!
Bronze Seduction was my first Mothership, and it's the only one I've ever given away. I hung on to it longer than I would have otherwise if not for Extreme Aubergine, Rose Gold, and Blitz Flame.

Totally agree with you on this palette, it is my time to shine palette, i took it out for weddings several times.
Thanks for high quality content here❤❤❤
Loved the video!! I really like how much info you give us. And how you explain the info. Great videos!.
ETA- I love all the looks. You are so talented. You get me excited to pull out my Pat palettes. I love it!

I became excited for Huetopian Dream after the Sailor Moon reference. And Moonlit Seduction was surprisingly gorgeous.
Bronze Seduction was my first purchase from Mother Pat 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍
I have such a good time watching you! And I love the looks, the first round looked so stunning on you! 💖
Thank you, Sarah!! 💕🙆🏽♀️
Of the 9 Motherships I have, Bronze Seduction ranks towards the bottom (although I love the Fire Opal and rose gold shades). I struggle with feeling inspired to use it. Gilty Pleasure and Bronze Blaze are duds > formula-wise. It's a fan favorite but not for me. Soooo, I'm here for inspiration - as I know Alicia BRINGS IT!!! *Now, back to focusing in on the 'show'*
That palette looks gorgeous on B you! I really love your in depth videos! Your use of words to describe and appreciate shutting from brushes to individual shades of just do delightfully, entertaining, informative and professional! Obsessed!!
I can't get to the video. The ad plays then freezes or something. I've closed and restarted 3 times now. 😢 I'll try again later.
Same here 😢
Ditto and I've tried from two different devices 😢
I restarted my phone, waited a bit, I'm still not able to watch it. What a bummer. I hope it gets fixed soon!
Someone else was having the same issue! I have no idea what to do from my end 😭 Welp, time to ask google 😅
Same unfortunately
I just got home from work (I’m Australian). My night is complete. A video from both Alicia AND Patty Alonso.🎉❤
Hooray! Thank you for watching our videos!! 💕🙆🏽♀️
@@aliciaarcher love both of you guys 😍
Bronze Seduction is the one that got me to drink the kool aid. The special shades I just couldnt pass up and the mattes in the palette were exactly the type of mattes I get a lot of use out of. I did get it on sale though 😆
❤ You inspired me to pull this one out again to try Blitz Flame with Rose Gold 005. I usually only use Blitz Flame around holiday/Christmas time but now I feel like you made it approachable. ❤️🎉
that Bergdorf Goodman Pallette is beautifull❤
Thank you! Happy to have bought it!
Bronze seduction was my first Mothership palette. Still one of my favorites
Oooo your first Mothership 💕😌
@@aliciaarcher now i have,1 2 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 that escalated quickly
My fav palette has to be the 1ST one... so unique my most use is divine rose II and my 2nd fav but bronze seduction started my love for sure
I don’t have this palette yet and I’m not sure why I haven’t gotten it! I’m a late bloomer on the Pat palettes, I’ve just started using them in like the last 2 years or so. Midnight Sun was my first because I got it on sale. Then I got I, II, and III in a set for cheap! Huetopian dream is the only one I paid almost full price on. I just recently broke down and got the divine rose I. Kind of wishing I had gotten II instead.
Thank you for revisiting these palettes! It definitely sparks excitement to use them again!
Thank you, Katrena! We’ll definitely dive back into Divine Rose II!
Yay! Thank you for this, Alicia! As always, you are my guru in all Pat McGrath goodies!😊
#sparkleeveryday 100%! I did a matte brown look recently and had to compensate with purple highlighter. My students look forward to see what colors I’ll play with and even put in requests 😅 I’m so busy, I’ve had to put my paints away and haven’t even gone out to take photos in, what feels like, ages, but playing with makeup every morning helps to keep me sane. 💛
Bronze Seduction and Midnight Sun are the only two palettes I own. These were the only ones that called my name!!
And what a great combo! 😍
Bronze seduction is holy grail and iconic. Its what i bring on vacations with me especially international. Its very dark skin girl friendly. Day looks. Night looks. Smokey. Holiday. No makeup makeup. Its everything. My most used. No thinking. The looks put themselves together.
Yes, Bronze Seduction is more versatile for deeper complexions, and that’s fantastic. And you’re a champ for traveling with a Mothership! 🤣
@@aliciaarcher I cant leave my baby behind. She must see the worldddd darling! Auntie Pat said so 👀🤭🤣
Great demonstrations! I love your creativity when combining the shades. You always give me lots of inspiration. This mothership was my very first Dame PMG palette, so it will always be very special. Thanks for reminding me to use it.
Hey Evelyn! Thank you again, and happy to know this helped!
I bought Bronze Seduction with my Sephora Rouge points. Bronze Blaze and Gilty Pleasure were so deeply disappointing that I thought it HAD to be a faulty palette. I exchanged for ND Metropolis. Great palette, no disappointments. I then repurchased Bronze Seduction in a 30% sale on her site hoping it was a better “batch”. Those specific shades did work better and I kept it but I realized after watching one of your extremely informative vigeos :) that the formula IS different and intentional. Ok, I still smh but the rest of the palette is so stinkin’ good I just roll with it. Thanks Alicia ❤
I too had to learn how to apply those shades. And the reason why I didn’t reach for the palette often, because the textures weren’t as seamless to use like Midnight Sun. Or even Divine Rose II!
@@aliciaarcher agreed!
This explains a lot. I solely used earth tones for the majority of my life. No wonder VI clicked with me.
Love when Pat did different color lacquer palettes.
I love all my palettes, but i do have favourites. Especially when i think people are sleeping on them or don't trust Mother. My skin colour is medium deep so its DR1 for every day cool pink neutral looks all the way - Velouria looks gorgeouson me. And you'll be prising Fleur Fantasia out of my cold dead fingers - eyes, cheeks and lips, so beautiful!
But DR2 and the Celestial Divinity MTHRSHP are my favourite big palettes.
The MTHRSHP Mega series is fantastic. I think odyssey is my fav ☺️
Your skin looks flawless!!!
I love your videos whenever you revist some of the gems in your collection.
Thank you, Alethea!
I must say guilty pleasure is such a divine shade. Mine became hard pan immediately after use. I quickly realized this palette wasn’t as wearable as I thought (not for work, anyway). At the time, I found myself reaching for the ABH Jackie Aina palette which had similar colors.
I wish Gilty Pleasure was formulated in the metallic MTHRSHP Mega formula 😮💨
I skipped bronze seduction... Weird right? It is a beautiful palette and I had my eye on it forever... until ND Bronze palette launched and I said, Nope... I don't need both. ND's bronze palette hit that grungy steampunk glam tarnished dirty bronze story that just suits my vibe. I don't regret it.
12:54 omg whut!? I didn't even know about this lavender one!! 😭
I just want ALL the limited edition color motherships 😢
Thank you!!!!❤❤❤❤ I love getting more inspirations on how to use the gorgeous palettes that I have ❤
I think the golden age was the first the palettes. They were new, fresh and completely innovative. Bronze seduction was a resurgence or silver age because while there was excitement, especially from people who had never indulged before, it wasn't nearly as new or innovative compared to the market particularly if you had purchased the holiday six pans
This is true! I’m leaning towards my first thesis for sure -
RUclips is refusing to play this video for me right now. Other videos are playing just fine. So are the ads on this one.
I need to look into this because someone else said the same thing 😮💨
It's working now. 🎉
I'm not sure if anyone else sees it but I think of Mothership 1 and Mothership 5 and 2 sides of the same coin. They're the same kind of colour story but in cool and warm tones.
Love your content & hearing your opinion on PML in that you’re so obviously passionate about & I also respect your opinion on the direction that brand is heading in. Btw, is Bronze Seduction in the STUNNING lavender case for sale somewhere for purchase?! I didn’t see it linked….thanks!! 😊❤
Loving these videos prompting me to revisit PM palettes.
Happy to share!
Your deep dives into the Motherships have become “must see tv”. There’s a throwback phrase. This was the only Mothership I owned, but unfortunately I lost it in Hurricane Ida when our house was hit and I lost most of my collection. I know, it still hurts. 🥹 I’ve been going back and forth with what to add back into my collection. Right now I’m considered II, III, VI, X and repurchasing V. You make it hard to decide with your commentary. You not only showcase the color story, but the textures, and the versatility of each palettes, which when you’re spending this amount of coin on, really does factor into the decision making process. The hubby already knows that this is what I want for my 47th in January, so I have a lot to think about! ❤ It’s been two over two years, and I do have the Celestial Osyssey to tide me over, but I do want a Mothership back! Bring on the looks!
I love Bronze Seduction ❤. Great video!
thank you for confirming a cut crease to me
I have yet to purchase a mothership. I have made up my mind. This is the one I’m getting!! Alicia made me buy it 😉❤
Do it!
Midnight Sun will always be my fave. It's everything I want in a palette. I thought I would love Bronze Seductione more but I didn't. The variety I love is not there for me.
I love your message at the end ❤
Thank you, Nicky 🥰
When I try to apply Guilty Pleasure very little shows on the lid☹️. The shade is absolutely gorgeous, but the formula is completely unusable.
Alicia I love your reviews but I love you more - injection of humour into every top class review 👌I have Subversive and Midnight Sun btw
Thanks for a great video! LoVe the vid, LoVe the Bronze Seduction palette 🎉
I love these vidgeos that make me appreciate my collection more and more ❤ still gonna get the new ND tho 😂
Just saying….. but I got Midnight Sun in the special Star Wars packaging for the packaging based on you love for the palette. And I absolutely regret nothing! I love it. I mean…Blitz Violet Orchid….Blood Moon…. Astral Solstice… Wicked Envy…. Just stop it right now!!!!!!!
I’m so happy you’re enjoying it! Despite stickergate 😅
@@aliciaarcher this is only my second mothership after Divine Rose I. And I srsly regret nothing.
I had this but sold it, it was too dramatic for me 🙈 Midnight Sun is my fave
I hear you, friend! That’s how I feel as well 😅
My Bronze Seduction palette is a MESS now! I should probably replace it.
Yeah that can happen 😮💨
Guilty pleasure hard panned on me the first day i got the palette upon swatching 😢 still trying to figure out a good brush to use with it.
I wish Pat McGrath would have done a neutral palette with the original baked formulas. Since we have seen many palettes with neutral tones recently. Also, would have loved to see an entire palette with the original baked formula with a color story similar to when she had the all shimmer palette. Just pick another color beside pink! Pick different tones of brown, green, purple, orange, warm tones, or cool tones. Just no more pink!!
