Interested to see what you think of the rest of the line. I’m still on the fence with these eye pods. The color groupings aren’t speaking to me. Btw, I think you have to turn and click the pods for a secure closure.
Jenny Jenny I had no idea I coups turn it further!! I am always afraid of breaking stuff so I didn’t even try to go further. Thank you!! I am hoping they will come out with more colors in the future. I agree that these groupings are not my favorite. I think they are working on nude lip colors next which I am eager to try!
Great review, Lexi! I’m still on the fence about them but your video gave me more detail! I love all the other WA products. Thank you for taking the time to post such a thorough review💕
Thank you for the review Lexi! I was initially intrigued by these eye pods, but now I'm kind of meh about them. Maybe I would be more interested if you could buy the colors individually.
Luv the eye pods. I have Les Nuits. By the way the cases do close completely. Keep turning gently till you hear a little click. Then they are completely closed and won’t accidentally open in your purse. I enjoyed your video!
Lexi - these were on my list to order. I am not sure if I missed "my window" to put them in a video. But I have been very interested in them. Great video.
About Face With Mona I don’t think you missed your window yet. They arrived very quickly and I still haven’t seen a lot on them. I think more opinions are always welcome!
An interesting review. I love the fact that this is clean make up but I was not that keen on the colours. I did like the packaging. I liked the looks you created and was interested in the brushes. Pleased your foundation is coming.
Great review. I like the brand and the packaging and the more natural looks. The brushes look fine but I think I would prefer the Sonia G. The shades are not really calling me overall. I like 2 out of 3 in each trio but for the price I would expect to like them all. Looking forward to hearing what you think of the other WA products.
Hi Lexi I never heard of this brand before but I love the brushes, they look similar with the Wayne Goss ones. The shadows are beautiful but I am sorry that the quality is not as expected. I never tried ABH primer but I would love to.💖
One of the things I like about the ABH primer is that they sell it in mini sizes on Sephora. It's a great way to try it and no fears of it drying up before you can use it all!
Also not convinced by the color selection but I appreciate cream to powder eyeshadows especially the Armani Eye Tint, alone or as eyeshadow base, they perform beautifully ^^ Interested by the vegan brushes as they can be used with cream products !!! See you soon
Do you find you end up using a lot of product for each application, especially when applying with fingers? It seems there isn’t much product in each pod and when swatching there was a very significant dent.
Farrah Moldover when swatching I definitely dented the the products but when using a brush it doesn’t really do that to that extent. However, I think these will not last very long if you use them regularly. Each shade is.03 ounces which is half of a Surratt shadow. Because of the cream to powder formula though, they are more cushiony and seem to depress more when you use them. Typically after using shadows a few times, they still look new but for the misses part they all have a shallow depression in the center now. I don’t have to press as hard to get the product now that the top layer is removed so that depression isn’t growing as significantly now but I can definitely tell the difference between shades I have used once vs. twice. Sorry that is so long winded! I would guess with daily use, you might get around three months or so depending on how heavily you apply them.
jenna m I will be doing a full review on the product line, including the brushes, as soon as my foundation stick arrives. I have four of the brushes and a lot of her products so far.
@@LexiJong I'm also curious to know more about whether the brushes make a big difference for the eye pods. I have both eye pod colorways and while I find my denser small brushes (ones I usually use for cream eyeshadows) do pretty well with picking up pigment, I would love to know if the WA corresponding brushes do a significantly better job since they're made to be used together.
Hi Lexi, Thanks very much for the review. Not sure if you have the Chanel ombré eye pot in New Moon, was wondering if that was a similar color for the burgundy shade?
Terri Einhorn I am sorry but I don’t have that one anymore. If I recall correctly, they are similar but I think the Chanel was more coppery than this one. I think this has a tint of burgundy that I don’t remember on the Chanel.
Great review, Lexi. I appreciated the detail you gave - answered all my questions. Would you let us know how primer impacted the wear time? I’ll be passing if it didn’t extend. Thank you!
Shelley Johnson I put it in the description box. The primer definitely extended the wear. The hard to find crease was around six hours (4 hours without primer) and I saw a small crease around nine hours but it was still less creasing than the six hour mark without primer. Both tests were performed with a couple of hours in 90+ degrees.
I like the westman atelier blender brush but not for cream blush or highlighter like Gucci uses. I like it better for powder. The highlighter, when applied with the blender brush, blends to nothing!
Shana Parsons I am enjoying both brushes so far but I still need to test them with some traditional shadows. I used them today for the Chanel liquid shadows and I really like them for that. So far, I like them but I want to test them a little more before I say something more definite. I will get back to you though!
I love the idea of these but for the price the colors just aren’t speaking to me. If she comes out with something a little more unique I will probably have to buy them!
Sarah Vigliotti-Morales I would love to see some colors! The online photos were hard to decipher so I admit I was a little disappointed with the shades of these.
To clarify, I meant WILL they be there or has selfridges or other retailers carried westman atelier in the past. I just couldn't find any online right now while googling
csskkai I don’t believe Selfridges carries the line. In the US, westman atelier is also sold at violet grey, cosbar, and credo. None of these retailers have international shipping. However, net-a-porter (ships worldwide) and niche beauty (ships to Europe) also carry the line. Currently these newest items are only available on the westman atelier site but should be arriving at other retailers soon.
Holt Renfrew is the Canadian retailer, if that helps anyone! They are not showing online yet but I suspect they will release to all retailers in the near future.
