Pat McGrath Nude Venus & Boudoir Rose Divinyl Lip Shines Reviews & Swatches
Nude Venus
Pat McGrath Nude Venus Divinyl Lip Shine ($36.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a very light, peachy coral with moderate, warm undertones and very fine, golden pearl strewn through a creamier base. The texture was lightweight, thin, and balm-like with a touch of creaminess that became more apparent as the warmth of my lips warmed up the product, but it looked shinier than it felt with respect to slip.
It had semi-opaque color payoff that applied fairly evenly but had a tendency to sink into my deeper lip lines and emphasized imperfections somewhat. It stayed on well for three hours and felt moderately hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$36.00/0.08 oz. - $450.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to offer "mirror-esque" shine with "rich color" that has a lot of "hydration." It's part of the brand's Lip Fetish range, which is a lip balm-based formula, but these appear to be the higher coverage offering within the various finishes available. They have a smooth, balm-like feel--light glide but not overly slippery, lightweight, and comfortable to apply and to wear.
The texture felt smooth and warmed up against my lips, which gave it a bit more slip, but the formula looked glossier than it actually felt with respect to slip, so it didn't end up being a high-maintenance formula--I didn't experience feathering/bleeding personally.
The weakness is in the wear time, which is three to four hours on most shades, and they don't have strong staining abilities (at least not based on the existing shade range). Otherwise, they offered semi-opaque to opaque coverage that applied evenly, smoothly, but it wasn't the most forgiving of imperfections. I always exfoliate my lips prior to doing lip swatches, but there were still a few shades that clung more noticeably to imperfections, though not all shades did so.
The formula felt moderately hydrating, though I don't find it as hydrating top tier lip balm formulations. They have a light, sweet vanilla scent but no discernible taste.

Boudoir Rose
Pat McGrath Boudoir Rose Divinyl Lip Shine ($36.00 for 0.08 oz.) is a medium pink with subtle, warm undertones and a luminous sheen. It had semi-opaque color payoff in a single layer with a smooth, lightly creamy texture that was lightweight, thin, and moderately glossy.
The color applied evenly, but I felt the formula wasn’t quite as forgiving of very minor imperfections in texture of my lips compared to some of the brand’s other formulas. It lasted well for four hours and felt moderately moisturizing while worn.
