I have a major girl crush on Gucci Westman

I love makeup—even though I don’t wear all that much of it (especially these days). I actually love playing around with my products even more now, since when I do it’s because I want to, not out of necessity. And since I’m not usually keeping my eye on the clock (as if I were getting ready for a meeting or appointment), I can take my time and experiment—what’s the worst thing that could happen? I wash my face and start over (or don’t).

With all of this said, I’ve never been all that into watching makeup tutorials—at least until Gucci Westman cranked up her content game. I’m obsessed with her “Makeup with Friends” series and for more than the makeup tips. I love seeing her sit-downs with celebrities, and the “virtual” episodes are amazing because you get to see inside their homes.

It goes without saying that I want every Westman Atelier product (fortunately there aren’t all that many yet). I bought the Baby Cheeks blush stick in “Petal” quite a while ago and absolutely love it for the most natural-looking hint of color (and because you can swipe it right on your skin and blend with your fingers). I recently added the Super Loaded Tinted Highlight in “Peau de Soleil” to my collection, and this might be my new “desert island” product. A few light swipes of this golden cream (applied with a flat, synthetic brush) on the tops of my cheekbones and eyelids is often the only actual makeup I need aside from concealer and mascara—it’s that good. And OMG, the compact is so fancy.

Westman’s “less is more” approach just feels so right (especially right now), and I love how I can put on some makeup without my husband facetiously asking, “Where are you off to?” when I’m obviously not going anywhere. If you’re looking for clean, effortless makeup that makes you look like a fresh-faced, radiant, slightly better version of yourself, Westman Atelier is for you.
