Pat McGrath Skin Show V2 Mini MatteTrance Trio Review & Swatches
Skin Show V2
Pat McGrath Skin Show V2 Mini MatteTrance Trio ($25.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a new, limited edition set of permanent shades housed in new, neon packaging. The performance of all three shades was comparable to their full-sized counterparts, and I didn’t experience any breakage while applying the minis from their tubes (often a downside with minis). The packaging definitely feels lighter-weight and less luxe, but it seemed functional to me.
Christy
Christy is a light-medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a satin finish. The texture felt smooth, lightly creamy but thin and lightweight (though not clingy), so it was easy to work with and glided well across my lips. There was a smidgen of product that settled into my deeper lip lines but wasn’t noticeable from a normal viewing distance (e.g. looking at my lips in a mirror vs. the close-up photo!). It lasted well for five and a half hours and felt moisturizing while worn.

Formula Overview
$40.00/0.14 oz. - $285.71 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be “richly pigmented” with “”supreme hydration” and “opulent matte opacity.” The consistency was smooth, velvety, and dense without being too firm for one-stroke, glide-on application (I found the original shades to be slightly firmer compared to more newly released shades). They had nearly opaque to opaque coverage in one layer and most were buildable.
They had a subtle sheen--more satin-to-cream in finish--that wore down to a natural matte finish within an hour or two of wear. The formula lasted between four and eight hours on me, and while most weren't drying, they aren't "supreme[ly" hydrating either. They are, however, comfortable to wear over a longer period of time and reapply well. There was no discernible scent or taste to the formula.

Beautiful Stranger
Beautiful Stranger is a muted, medium pink with strong, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had rich pigmentation that applied evenly to my lips in a single stroke. The texture was smooth, velvety, and creamy enough to glide on but not to the point where it felt overly emollient, though there was a smidgen of product that sank into my lip lines; it wasn’t noticeable in person, just in the close-up photos. It wore well for five and a half hours and felt hydrating over time.

Flesh 3
Flesh 3 is a medium-dark, reddish-brown with a satin finish. The lipstick had opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly over my lips without tugging or dragging. The consistency was lightweight, velvety, and smooth with just the right amount of creaminess to make for a comfortable application but ensured good longevity. It stayed on nicely for six hours and felt lightly moisturizing while worn.
