Westman Atelier Les Étoiles Lip, Blush & Highlighter Edition Set Review

Purchased (Affiliate Links)

Westman Atelier Les Étoiles Lip, Blush & Highlighter Edition Set is something that I simply could not resist purchasing. I have been a big fan of Westman Atelier makeup and brushes since the brand launched, but I have also been eagerly awaiting a powder blush from them, and this set features their first powder blush in Petal. Additionally, my daily lip gloss is Westman Atelier Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm in Chou Chou (A gorgeous pale pink. Reviewed HERE), and my daily lipstick is the Westman Atelier Lip Suede in Les Nudes (Reviewed HERE). I also have collected all of Westman Atelier Makeup Brushes and use them every single day (All 9 brush reviews linked in this review HERE and the travel brushes HERE). 

I had been coveting this limited edition set when it launched for the holidays in 2023, but I didn't purchase it when it launched (regular price $160.00), but instead I purchased it the moment it went on sale (now selling for $96.00).

This curated trio of essentials includes (limited edition):

  • NEW Baby Cheeks in Petal in its first-ever powder blush format - full size; 8g/0.28oz.
  • NEW Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm in Nectar - full size, 6.5ml/0.21oz.
  • NEW Lit Up Highlight Stick in Biscuit - full size; 5g/0.17oz.
According to Westman Atelier,

Our best-selling shades re-imagined into limited edition beauty staples that bring a dewy freshness to skin & lips. The stars of the show, re-imagined. A rosy pop of color and glassy sheen breathe new life into skin and lips. Made with clean, high-performance and good-for-you ingredients, for a playfully fresh look that is always effortless & never overdone.

  • NEW Baby Cheeks in Petal in its first-ever powder blush format - full size; 8g/0.28oz.
  • NEW Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm in Nectar - full size, 6.5ml/0.21oz.
  • NEW Lit Up Highlight Stick in Biscuit - full size; 5g/0.17oz.
Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks in Petal (8g/0.28oz.): is their first-ever powder blush in their most popular cream blush color (incidentally named after Gucci Westman's daughter, Petal). Petal is a matte dusty rose shade without any shimmer whatsoever. It was created to emulate a natural cheek color, or flush, and is beautiful on the skin. The formula is buildable, but a little goes a very long way, and therefore start with a small amount and build to achieve the level of color saturation that you desire. The texture is an ultra soft and refined powder that is silky smooth against the skin. It is such a wonderful formula, and I sincerely hope that it not only becomes a permanent part of the line, but that they add more colors.

Westman Atelier Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm in Nectar (0.21 oz.): is a lightly tinted clean lip treatment nourishes and hydrates the lips like a lip balm, but with the shine and sparkle of a lip gloss. This formula is non-sticky, has the perfect amount of that cushion for comfortable wear, and it is weightless on the lips. Nectar, which is described as a sparkling golden peach, with a touch of pink, offers a very light veil of color. It is quite sheer, but with dimension.

Westman Atelier Lit Up Highlight Stick in Biscuit (0.17 oz.): is a translucent gel highlighter, in a stunning tawny-beige shade, that highlights the skin with radiance and clarity. It can be used on the cheeks, lips and eyelids, and it is very flattering.

  1. How divine! I love the red packaging ❤️ I know how much you love this brand, so makes sense to buy it now on sale 🎉 I am very interested in the blushes especially, both forms of Petal look perfect, though the shades look slightly different. The embossed hearts on the LE version get me every time ❤️❤️❤️

    1. It is truly a divine set, Allison! I really do love this brand, and I am simply so impressed by their products. I wanted this set when it wasn't on sale, and I even resisted it during the Sephora VIB event, but this sale was too good to resist. I really wanted to try their first powder blush, and I agree with you that the embossed hearts are delightful! They also use them on their bronzers that aren't LE. I agree that there is a bit of difference between the cream and powder versions of the Petal blush.
