If you’ve ever been privy to the luxury that is Westman Atelier Beauty, you likely know the drill: The Face Trace Contour sculpts with that signature buttery texture; Baby Cheeks blush delivers a flushed-from-within glow without ever lifting what’s underneath. And the Super Loaded Highlighter? It has an impossible-to-match texture that leaves a luxe sheen on the high points of my face. The brand has built its reputation on textures that melt into skin and feel like they're an extension of your natural glow. So I naturally expected the new HydroBalm Tinted Lipsticks to meet the same standard.
Gucci Westman—the celebrity makeup artist who graces the faces of Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Anne Hathaway—has always been about polished makeup that never feels overdone. She designed the HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick to mimic a lip balm’s cushiony feel, but to look like a lipstick once applied, with a juicy wash of color that’s not quite as saturated as the Lip Suede Matte Lipstick.
