Roxanne Adamiyatt, the Digital Style Director at Town & Country magazine, has discovered a new lip product from Westman Atelier that she can't get enough of. The HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick offers a unique formula that is not quite a lipstick, balm, or gloss, but provides a light, hydrating layer of color and sheen to the lips without feeling heavy or drying.

Why it matters

As the winter months drag on, many people find themselves craving a change in their makeup routine. Westman Atelier's new HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick provides a versatile option that can work for all seasons, offering a healthy, vibrant look without high-maintenance application.

The details

The HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick has a unique formula that feels lightweight and comfortable on the lips, providing just enough color deposit to enhance the natural pout. It offers a soft sheen and a subtle cooling sensation upon application. The product reapplies well throughout the day and helps keep lips hydrated, even for those with very dry lips. Adamiyatt has been enjoying the range of shades, from the raspberry-toned "English Rose" to the peachy-coral "Nectar, Juice, and Pop" as the seasons transition.

  • Adamiyatt discovered the HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick in mid-February, as she was looking to transition her makeup routine from the warmer neutrals of fall and early winter.
