Westman Atelier has launched a few new items recently and I have a roundup today of what I’ve been testing!
Baby Cheeks New Shade – Fizz
Westman Atelier occasionally creates products that are only available on their website and the latest launch is the Baby Cheeks Cream Blush Stick in Fizz ($48). I shared a quick demo last week and now it’s already sold out but I hope you bring it back eventually. Fizz is a light warm pink. Fizz is similar in shade to Poppet but the new Fizz shade is warmer and a bit brighter which makes it easier to wear with my golden/olive complexion.
It combines with more natural flexibility. In terms of colors I find it similar to Saie’s Dew Blush in Flirty and Rhode Pocket Blush in Juice Box ( reviewhere). It was also swatched next to Hourglass Unreal Liquid Blush in Whim (reviewhere), Prada Touch Blush in Tulip (demoherereview soon), Dior Rosy Glow Blush Stick in Ultra Pink (reviewhere), Saie Dew Blush in Flirty, and Merit Blush Balm in Le Bonbon (in actionhere).
Performance is the same as all Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks. The longest wear time won’t be there if you live in humid areas or have oily skin, but it’s always better if you layer some kind of powder on top. I think this is a great option for girls with dry skin.
HydroBalm Sheer Tinted Lipstick
I love any lip balm launch so I was incredibly excited to try the HydroBalm Sheer Tinted Lipsticks ($50 each). I found this a little too much for my tastebut I also think I picked some of the wrong shades for my skin/lip tone. I told them not to see and while I thought the formula was great, a few shades were too cool and light toned for me.
I shared swatches on Instagram and a little review here. I was really surprised that SO MANY of you like this kind of tint in your lip color! I gave these recommendations in my reviewand I can’t believe how many DMs I received from you telling me that you like these.
I like Pop and Juice. The pinks I chose are not true neutrals but these types of neutrals tend to pull too much gray or blue on my complexion. So if you’re fair or fair skinned and find it a challenge to find colors that work for you, I think you’re in luck with Westman Atelier’s HydroBalm line!
Nectar is a shimmery peachy gold
The juice is just a peach
Ballerine is a cool mauve pink
Pop is just red
The English Rose is mauve
Lip Shape Defining Lip Line
I also have swatches of the Lip Shape Defining Lips Liners ($34). I really like this formula because it’s a traditional pencil but not too hard but at the same time it’s not creamy or gel-like. Sometimes I feel like I want a classic lip pencil. These glide on smooth lips and the lasting power is excellent.
Petal is my favorite of the shades I tried followed by Je Reve. In my experience front. I didn’t do lip swatches of these but you can see the Petalhere.
Overall a great launch from Westman Atelier. The formulas are amazingly good and the performance is 10/10. For the lipsticks, I just wish they had more pigment and I wish they had warmer pinks.
PS I just picked up the Sun Tone Bronzing Crème in Soleil Parfait 2 from the Sephora sale. I will be watching soon!
