Makeup aficionados are no strangers to Patrick Ta. The celebrity makeup artist has worked his magic on some of the biggest names in the industry, from Camila Cabello and Gigi Hadid to Lily Collins and Hailee Steinfeld. But it’s not just his impressive technique that has everyone watching—it’s also his eponymous makeup line, known for viral beauty essentials like the newly launched Major Dimension Eye Illusion Eyeshadow Duos ($42).
This new launch joins Patrick Ta’s bestsellers, including the Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo and the Major Sculpt Crème Contour & Powder Bronzer Duo. (If anyone knows how to master the power of a duo, it’s Ta.) Staying true to the brand’s signature touch, each duo includes two complementary eyeshadow shades, each infused with finely milled sparkles and multidimensional pearls for a double-take-worthy glow.
Even though the Major Dimension Eye Illusion Eyeshadow Duos just launched this week, they’re already racking up five-star ratings. One reviewer raves, “This eyeshadow is great for any occasion, and you can do a simple look that is more scattered, or you can build it up for a really pigmented sparkle.” We, too, tested it and can confirm the payoff is as impressive as it looks in the compact, with versatile application for a subtle glow or intense sparkle, just as the reviewer described.
While the $42 price tag initially stirred up some debate, mega influencer Mikayla Nogueira gave the formulas a rave review on TikTok. Responding to the chatter, Ta also took to the social media platform to explain: “The eyeshadows in these duos are not your normal eyeshadows; these are not a pressed formula, these are not a cream, these are what you call a slurry,” he said. “What is so special about this formula to me is that this formula has no filler in it; this is a baked formula and you are getting 100 percent pearl. When you swatch this, I have yet to be able to find a pearl that looks like this, applies like this and will stay like this when you put it onto your eyes.”
