Westman Atelier launched their first lipstick formulation known as the Lip Suede Matte Lipstick ($50 every) and I couldn’t have been extra excited to attempt them. They’re at the moment obtainable at Westman Atelier for an unique early launch. Based on their Instagram they are going to be launching at different retailers like and beginning the nineteenth 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 these troublesome to retailer subsequent to one another (similar as the difficulty I’ve with the Child Cheeks). Primarily based on a ballot I did most of you retailer these alternating (one proper aspect up, one the wrong way up, and many others.) when you personal a couple of shade.
I believe the packaging is gorgeous (magnet concern apart) however I obtained dozens of messages from you concerning the packaging being cumbersome and unflattering. I really like the distinctive look however can see what number of discover it too huge. The ratio of product to packaging does appear extreme however I additionally see the way it suits in with the model aesthetic.
The Lip Suede Matte Lipstick formulation is a light-weight cushiony matte which feels extra like a satin. I like that it’s a comfortable matte. They’re easy and glide on flawlessly. On me they’re one swipe wonders though I give them a pair swipes backwards and forwards to cowl the complete lip evenly.
System is a basic lipstick – I don’t discover it hydrating however I don’t discover them drying both. There’s a really comfortable scent to them, virtually vanilla-like and virtually crayon-like however I’ve to odor them actually carefully to detect the scent. On my lips I don’t discover something.
Lasting energy is okay. They keep put so long as I don’t contact my lips to something however they’re not switch proof. They do begin to look a bit of dry on the lips after a number of hours because of the matte texture.
Beneath swatches of the 5 shades I hauled:
- Lacker is a light-weight muted peachy colour
- Pique is a taupe rose
- Minx is a shiny heat pink
- Je Reve is a fairly mauve rose
- Rue is a cool chestnut brown
Appears additionally sporting:
General I’ve combined emotions. I really like the colours aside from Rue which appears to be like like loss of life on me. System is basically good for a matte however I nonetheless desire Pat McGrath, Lisa Eldridge or Charlotte Tilbury for his or her matte lipstick formulation by far. At $50 a pop I don’t know that I might say they’re well worth the splurge. It appears extremely steep for what you get. That being mentioned it looks as if the costs of all the pieces have gone as much as insane ranges. I do like these much more than the Hourglass mattes I reviewed a number of weeks in the past however I don’t assume I’d name these vital.
If you happen to’re interested by these and like matte lipsticks I might say perhaps wait till the Sephora financial savings occasion which is able to deliver the worth level down when you’re a Magnificence Insider.
Out there now at Westman Atelier. Launching at , and many others. beginning mid March.
