POWDER PERFECT

As you know, I’m a big fan of Westman Atelier products. When Cos Bar in Newport Beach announced a personal appearance and class with Gucci Westman, I didn’t hesitate to sign up. Although I already have almost every Westman Atelier product, I was excited for the newly launched Vital Pressed Skincare Powder. Unsurprisingly, it’s a beautiful addition to an already superb collection of cosmetics.

This is my second time attending a Westman Atelier event with Gucci present. I was fortunate to have her personally do my makeup at Barneys Beverly Hills a few years ago with the launch of the Westman Atelier collection and since then, I’ve been hooked. As much as I love how the products look and feel on my skin, I’m equally inspired by Gucci’s passion to create a beautiful product under the constraints of her strict standards using clean ingredients that benefit the skin. Plus, I relate to her idea and vision of beauty in creating a healthy, natural look.

I loved the powder and purchased it in Creme (it’s available translucent plus four shades). The ultra sheer finish is lovely and is loaded with ingredients good for your skin. “It works like makeup, acts like skincare, for the ultimate ‘how-is-my-skin-this-good’ effect.”  I also love Westman Atelier brushes and added a few brushes to my collection so I have a couple repeats.

Vital Pressed Skincare Powder:
“Set and boost makeup without dulling radiance. Ultra-sheer and micro-milled, this powder instantly smooths pores, evens tone, sweeps away shine. A skin defense complex of vitamin C, probiotics, and minerals shields from environmental stressors, known to impact quality of skin, while protecting from blue light. Over time, pressed-in actives do more, helping to control sebum and refine skin texture. Works  Clean and Talc-Free.”
