Pat McGrath wants your lips to B-O-L-D this holiday season. On Nov. 16, her cult-status makeup brand, Pat McGrath Labs, launches its newest limited-edition lip kits. LiquiLUST 007 comes in two sets with three shades of matte liquid lipstick in each — a bright colors set and a nudes set — plus a fine crystalline powder and clear gloss, so you can do two different finishes in matte or IRL Kirakira shine. If you’re counting that means 12 new lip looks for your party circuit this season. You can also get everything in one epic nine-piece set. Smashing.

“The spirit of the holiday season, for me, is mesmerizing magic, sublime sparkle and the chance to pout, provoke, and pose at the year’s best parties,” McGrath said in her press release. In other words: shine bright, my friends.

To give you all the details on this bound-to-sell out release, we heavily documented everything about the launch from the packaging to the finished looks.

HOW TO APPLY

Ben Ritter/Coveteur

First, line lips with the pointed tip of the doe-foot applicator. The formula is a thick cream that doesn’t slip and slide, so you can have ample grip to line precisely.

Next, use the flat end of the applicator to fill in your lips. The liquid lipstick takes just one swipe—this is as high pigment as it gets.

You can wear the matte liquid lipstick alone or….

… top it with the sparkly powder (dab it on with you finger) and clear lipgloss…

… for all out glimmer-y shine!

NUDE MATTES

The three shades in the nude set, which is called LiquiLUST 007 Skin Show, include a pale cream, a mid-tone blush, and a deeper ruddy tone. Here we show the mid-tone blush and deeper ruddy tone on Lisa and Urvashi.

NUDE GLOSSES

After adding the finely milled sparkly powder on top (just use your finger to dap on — that’s how the pros on Pat’s team do it!) and sealing it in with the gloss, the warm nude tones become golden and gleaming.

BRIGHT GLOSSES

The glitter in the bright color kit is a white-ish tone with a touch of violet. With the glitter and gloss on top, the colors instantly get a cool sheen that is as modern as it is eye-catching.
