Westman Atelier introduced their first lipstick formulation known as the Lip Suede Matte Lipstick ($50 each and every) and I may just now not were extra excited to take a look at them. They’re these days to be had at Westman Atelier for an unique early release. Consistent with their Instagram they’ll be launching at different outlets like Sephora and Nordstrom beginning the 19th of March.
The Lip Suede Matte Lipsticks are cased in a twist up shiny tube with a magnetic closure. The packaging is gorgeous however the magnetic function makes those tricky to retailer subsequent to one another (similar as the problem I’ve with the Child Cheeks). In keeping with a ballot I did maximum of you retailer those alternating (one proper aspect up, one the other way up, and many others.) for those who personal a couple of colour.
I believe the packaging is gorgeous (magnet factor apart) however I won dozens of messages from you in regards to the packaging being cumbersome and unflattering. I really like the original glance however can see what number of to find it too giant. The ratio of product to packaging does appear over the top however I additionally see the way it suits in with the logo aesthetic.
The Lip Suede Matte Lipstick formulation is a light-weight cushiony matte which feels extra like a satin. I love that it’s a cushy matte. They’re clean and drift on flawlessly. On me they’re one swipe wonders even if I give them a pair swipes backward and forward to hide all the lip calmly.
System is a vintage lipstick – I don’t to find it hydrating however I don’t to find them drying both. There’s an overly cushy smell to them, virtually vanilla-like and virtually crayon-like however I’ve to sniff them truly intently to come across the smell. On my lips I don’t realize the rest.
Lasting energy is okay. They keep put so long as I don’t contact my lips to the rest however they’re now not switch evidence. They do begin to glance a bit dry at the lips after a number of hours because of the matte texture.
Under swatches of the 5 sunglasses I hauled:
- Lacker is a mild muted peachy colour
- Pique is a taupe rose
- Minx is a vivid heat crimson
- Je Reve is an attractive mauve rose
- Rue is a groovy chestnut brown
Appears to be like additionally dressed in:
General I’ve combined emotions. I really like the colours excluding for Rue which looks as if demise on me. System is truly just right for a matte however I nonetheless want Pat McGrath, Lisa Eldridge or Charlotte Tilbury for his or her matte lipstick formulation through a ways. At $50 a pop I don’t know that I might say they’re well worth the splurge. It sort of feels extremely steep for what you get. That being mentioned it kind of feels like the costs of the entirety have long gone as much as insane ranges. I do like those much more than the Hourglass mattes I reviewed a couple of weeks in the past however I don’t assume I’d name those vital.
For those who’re serious about those and prefer matte lipsticks I might say possibly wait till the Sephora financial savings match which is able to convey the fee level down for those who’re a Attractiveness Insider.
To be had now at Westman Atelier. Launching at Nordstrom, Sephora and many others. beginning mid March.
