Blush is arguably the magical finishing touch to any makeup routine, it brings a natural, rosy glow (that you cannot get via pinching your cheeks alone) while adding that extra pop of color that makes your face come alive especially when you’ve been plastering your skin with foundation and concealer. It’s like a little miracle worker. But let’s be real, finding the perfect blush is a struggle and can be hard for brands to get right. Sometimes you may end up looking like a chalkboard if it’s too much pigment and not the right texture, too little and what’s the point, right? If you’re relating to this, Westman Atelier’s ‘Baby Cheeks’ blush sticks have found the balance you are looking for, these babies are bestsellers for a reason! They effortlessly nail that flush that we all covet. But if you’re still hesitating, let us break down why these sticks are absolute game-changers.
How Westman Atelier Has Created The Perfect Balanced Blush With ‘Baby Cheeks’
The founder Gucci Westman proclaims Baby Cheeks was made to look like the blush was coming from within instead of sitting on top. Their formula has skincare properties with lightweight oils and nourishment allowing the pigment to melt when blended and look authentic. If you are someone who feels like the extra effect of blush is for you, the good thing is that it’s not heavy and you can layer to achieve it but it’s made light for everyone to have their preference an option. The shades they currently have are the shades that Gucci in her decades-long career as a makeup artist would mix up for her diverse range of clients and found to look the best. You are either a rosy pink girl who’d look best in shades Petal, Dou Dou, Garçonne, Poppet, Bichette, or a peach coral girl that would radiate with shades Chouchette, Minette, and Coquette. Also if you find a shade and think that it would look better on your lips it doubles as a lip pigment as well. So you can just grab this and put it in your bag knowing it will add a beautiful touch-up color if needed to all those assets.
Why Westman Atelier’s Clean Beauty Makes The Blushes Better Quality
Westman Atelier is a clean beauty brand, meaning they don’t use any harmful toxic chemicals in their makeup. This may seem like a simple decision, but in reality, it’s not. Most beauty brands don’t follow this practice for various reasons, including the fact that it’s harder to develop and has a shorter shelf life but ultimately non-clean can disrupt the sanctity of your health. Opting for clean is better for yourself and for the environment too. Your skin will thank you for it. The Baby Cheeks blush from Westman Atelier is designed to be as natural as possible, including real vitamins, oils, peptides, probiotics, and fruit extracts (WA is cruelty-free and vegan). By choosing clean beauty products, you’re not compromising your skin’s health for makeup. This brings us to our next topic.
Is Their Blushes Ance-Safe?
Yes. Yes. And Yes. Westman Atelier is one of the safest beauty brands for acne-prone skin. As we’ve said they combine skincare properties into makeup at clinically proven efficacy levels. Reading the Baby Cheeks blush ingredients list is practically heavenly, no weird list of chemicals most of us don’t know how to pronounce, it contains organic Jojoba oil that improves the skin barrier and allows for a nice blend, not pore clogging, Vitis Vita Grape extract that helps detoxify cells, Berryflux Vita Extract that hydrates your skin, and Vitamins C & E that protect the skin from environmental stressors. These natural ingredients make you feel good about putting makeup on your skin like you’re improving it because you are. However, please remember that when using a straight-apply product like this one, just like a brush the applicator needs to be washed (not literally) to avoid causing breakouts. If you apply directly, occasionally lightly wipe the top with a tissue to renew it, or use a washable brush for application.
