So that I don’t bury the lede: Westman Atelier is expanding the shade range of its popular Face Trace Cream Contour Stick today, January 16, and Marie Claire has the exclusive details on the expansion. Now that that’s out of the way, allow me to provide some context.
I’m a big fan of practically all of the other formulas that Westman Atelier offers, including the Super Loaded Tinted Highlighters (my favorites), the stick foundations, and the heavily underrated pressed powders. That being said, I was disappointed to see that when I really wanted to get into the contour sticks, there was nothing for me to use. The original deepest shade, Ganache, was too dark for my skin tone, but the one before it, Truffle, was too light (the story of my life as a medium deep skin tone with a neutral-leaning undertone).
