Patrick Ta cosmetics offers a wide variety of makeup products, including eyeshadow palettes, face products, lip products and makeup application tools, among other items. The company launched in 2019 and has since partnered with retailers such as Sephora.
Founder and company namesake Patrick Ta is a makeup artist based in Los Angeles, California. He began his career at MAC Cosmetics as a beauty consultant and soon became a freelance makeup artist. He went on to work with some of the biggest celebrities in Hollywood and eventually launched his own beauty brand. The company focuses on ensuring that wearers feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
Before purchasing any beauty item, look at the label. Identify any potential allergens or chemicals that you may react to and assess if the product will suit your skin. It’s best to do a patch test first by applying a small portion of the product to a discreet part of your skin. Leave on for 24 hours and wait for any reaction. Proceed with a full application if there are no adverse results.
Understanding what you need and what will go to waste when buying cosmetics will save you money and prevent product waste. If you prefer a light-coverage look that doesn’t require a lot of time, just a few essential products, such as mascara, eyebrow pencil and concealer, should cover your bases.
For those who prefer taking their time with their makeup, experimenting with different products from the Patrick Ta line is the best way to find what’s right for you. Some popular items to play around with include the Major Volume Plumping Lip Gloss, the Major Brow Shaping Wax and Major Glow Balm.
Getting the makeup that suits your complexion best depends on your undertones. Finding your undertones is easy, and you can do this by looking at the color of your veins. Green veins indicate that you have warm undertones, and you should look for these when searching for foundation and concealer.
Purple and blue veins indicate you have cooler undertones. There are charts available online for more in-depth undertone analysis, or Sephora offers in-store skin matching to find your perfect shades.
As more men are beginning to add cosmetics into their grooming routines, makeup artists such as Patrick Ta are embracing the trend. Inspiring men to use cosmetics to feel more confident, Patrick Ta offers several makeup tutorials online using male-identifying models to show that the brand’s products aren’t just for women — they’re “for all” to enjoy.
