I've never been type-A—believe me, I wish I were. My bedtime changes nightly, my camera roll is a graveyard of half-finished creative projects, and my unread texts are in the triple digits. But the one thing I am going to see through from start to finish? My soft glam smokey eye. Ask any of my beauty girls at Marie Claire—I'm loyal to a nude crease and a diffused brown wing—every single day. So when Patrick Ta dropped a new six-pan palette filled with essential matte neutrals, I didn't hesitate to test it out.
I'm a big fan of his larger Major Dimension III Palette—it's my weekday ride-or-die—but between all the traveling I do and packing three "just in case" lip liners, I've been craving something sleeker. This new Major Dimension Essential Artistry Edit Palette is the perfect middle ground: a capsule of buttery mattes that feel like they were designed with my makeup bag and busy schedule in mind.
