What We Do

Founded in 2018 by professional makeup artist Gucci Westman. For Westman, there are three vital signs of modern beauty: luxury, efficacy, and clean, consciously-crafted ingredients. For her first makeup line, she combines supremely buttery, rich textures with the best plant-based active ingredients. The ultimate naturally beautiful complexion — now available to everyone.

We are creating a new standard in luxury that we like to call consciously crafted beauty. Consciously crafted beauty means a transparent and thoughtful approach to innovation that recognizes modern needs, balancing ethical beauty standards with science, technology and product performance. It means we are always evolving and learning. And it means we are passionately committed to products formulated with integrity.

We believe makeup should do more than enhance — it should calm, nourish and balance. Westman Atelier ingredients are thoroughly and thoughtfully curated by both artist and chemist so you can enjoy skin-benefiting, non-toxic makeup that performs at the highest possible standard.

Our commitment is to constantly review, research and reassess our ingredients as fresh information comes to light — in the meantime, we’ll always be completely transparent about our formulations, which meet the European Union’s rigorous standards for clean beauty. And we promise never to use, parabens, PEGs, phthalates and many other harmful chemicals. Feel good about your skin from the inside out.
