Westman Atelier launched Powder Cheek Duos in two completely different codecs ($75 every). I picked up two of the Child Cheeks Powder Blush Duos and two of the Child Cheeks Powder Blush + Sculpting duos. I additionally splurged on the Powder II Brush $85) to attempt.
I really like the distinctive powder method. It has an attention-grabbing virtually creamy powder texture with a really blurred matte end. It makes the pores and skin look very blurred. I’ve been an enormous fan of the tones in her Cream Blush Child Cheeks and had excessive hopes for these powder variations. Whereas I actually love the method, I don’t love all the colours – however I feel that’s to be anticipated since they’ve completely different variations and undertones.
Colours are all mattes.
For skintone reference I put on her Very important Pores and skin Basis Stick in Shade VI which I nonetheless actually love. I additionally put on Shade V within the winter and Shade VII in the summertime months when I’m very tan.
Listed here are the swatches, these are utilized with a heavy hand:
Listed here are the swatches subsequent to the cream blushes with the identical names:
Lip + Cheek seems with every duo layered on the face:
Child Cheeks Powder Blush Duo Coquette/Mimi
Lip Suede Lacker + Squeaky Clear Liquid Lip Balm Nectar
This duo pulls very gentle on my pores and skin, if I have been even 1/2 shade darker I don’t suppose this is able to present up on my pores and skin tone.
__________
Child Cheeks + Face Hint Sculpting Powder Duo Petal/Biscuit
Lip Suede Petal + Squeaky Clear Liquid Lip Balm in Petal
That is the one duo I actually didn’t like. The colours are very darkish and virtually look muddy on the pores and skin when it units. The cool undertone of biscuit isn’t flattering on my pores and skin with the gray shade and for some purpose is difficult to mix.
__________
Child Cheeks + Face Hint Sculpting Powder Duo Tulle/Truffle
Lawless Overlook the Filler Gloss Velvet Daisy
I feel I really like this one essentially the most!
__________
Child Cheeks Powder Blush Duo Suede/Sable
Lip Suede Pique + Squeaky Clear Liquid Lip Balm Biscuit (discontinued)
One other cheek duo that pulls darkish however because it has hotter undertones works with a lightweight hand for me.
I splurged on the Powder II Brush and don’t suppose it was definitely worth the splurge. I’ve tried just a few of her brushes which I feel are fantastically made, however I feel they’re very overpriced and I’m simply not a fan of the design/density. For the pigment and texture of the Powder Duos I want one thing just a little extra fluffy just like the rephr brush 04 and brush 05 (each extra affortable) or the Hakuhodo J110 (splurge).
Total actually happy the standard, method and packaging. Colours aren’t all for me however I discovered a pair I actually love. Put on time is de facto good and has minimal fading by late afternoon. If you happen to want a little bit of glow/depth then be ready so as to add highlighter on high as a result of these are VERY matte.
Yow will discover the duos out now at Nordstrom, Sephora, Westman Atelier and all different Westman Atelier retailers.
