Why is looking like yourself the hardest thing to pull off in makeup? Gucci Westman, the makeup artist behind some of the most photographed faces in Hollywood and the founder of Westman Atelier, has spent over two decades perfecting skin that looks lit from within, and this week she's teaching Molly and Emese how to achieve it.
Rather than piling on product, Gucci makes the case for a smaller, smarter "wardrobe of makeup." She explains how years of character work shaped her belief in authenticity over polish, and why the goal is never a mask. She also gets candid about scrapping an entire foundation launch to start over from scratch, and what went into the new Suprême Bio-Complex Liquid Foundation, a 30-shade formula built to keep a natural radiance all day.
Plus: her theory on choosing your foundation shade by undertone, how to bronze and warm up your skin, why every look needs a pop of color, how she contours without looking "makeup-y," and the Restraint Test: what you can skip in your routine and what you absolutely can't.
