Pat McGrath is the make-up magician whose ethereal, otherworldly beauty looks have put her in a class of her own and have been seen on runways from Valentino to Christian Dior to Alexander Queen. We've all tried our hand at one of Mother's signature silky glass skin or her mesmerising smokey eyes or even her glossy metallic lips. Now, we have a chance to learn from the legendary make-up artist herself with the launch of her first-ever McGrath Masterclass.
McGrath will be hosting her inaugural masterclass on Tuesday, June 16, via Zoom. For an hour and a half, starting at 5pm, Mother will be letting us in on all the beauty secrets she's picked up in her decades-spanning career, including her backstage runway tricks, and teaching viewers how to achieve her signature smokey eye.
The star of the evening will be the Divine Rose palettes from her collaboration with supermodel Naomi Campbell that launched at the end of May. According to the details on the site, the exclusive session will focused on 'gossip, glamorous giveaways, and giving back' and will feature a few special guests, including influencers and MUAs.
