Eye Pods Cream Eye Shadow

Easy, natural, everyday, clean smoky eyes

I bought this on sale as a treat and love it. Natural looking, stays put - my everyday clean eyeshadow. Gives me a natural soft smoky eye. I use my fingers or the Charlotte Tilbury smudger brush and it goes in perfectly. 1 star off for price, 4 stars for performance, ease, and clean beauty.

Beautiful but very little product for the $$$$

1 star is about value. I love the product but have only used 7 days and can see the bottom of the pot, so very little product for an $80 price tag. Sheer but beautiful but not worth the price.

Love these

I really like these. That being said, they are best for those only wanting a wash of color. I use mac paint pot in painterly as a base, then they don't crease on me. So for me they are perfect.

It’s a no for me

So pricey and very little color payoff!!! Extremely disappointed.

Will purchase again!

Definitely one of my favourite formulas and they are perfect for everyday. I like to apply the two lighter color using my fingers, so easy to apply and to carry around.

Worst WA product ever

I purchased this set as a gift for my daughter who loves WA and noticed she never used it. Unfortunately it was too dry and really zero color—very very disappointing.

Feels like velvet

The best cream eye shadow I've used so far! The colors are beautiful, the product is the perfect consistency - not too dry and also not wet and sticky, I love that the pods are magnetic so they stay together.

Simple and elegant, but a tad pricey

A little pricey but worth it. Once of the few eyeshadows I don’t have an allergic reaction to! Lovely basic colors. Convenient simplistic packaging. Great for travel.

Not impressed

Really not impressed with these. Hard to use, hard to get color out of. Not easy to blend. I will say I do not have a lot of fall out at least? Will not buy again

Spoiled quickly

Pros: gorgeous packaging, color doesn’t fall Cons: two of my six pots went rancid after using them only once. We’re talking crayon smell. So bummed. I’ll likely return both sets. I love that they’re clean they’re clean,

It’s ok, not sure why it’s so expensive.

I can’t believe I paid full price for this. I’m wearing it now, but I never reach for it. I find it’s best to use with a brush. The green is kinda muddy so I really only use the pink and the taupe colors. Definitely should use with a primer. Or rather, just don’t buy it. lol

Do not waste your money. This is impossible to use and dries out very quickly.

Perfect color and formula

These are perfect eyeshadows in color and formula. They glide on and leave my eyes with a soft glisten. The formula is unique and very gentle on my sensitive eyes. I have purchased the TouJours 3 times.

I had high hopes

this is a weird product. it’s very small. it doesn’t blend well because it’s very dry (not really a cream), so it’s hard to pick up much product. And the color is not giving. returned

This is the worst thing I have EVER purchased. Eyeshadow is just a mess, it’s a weird combo between a potted cream and a powder. It’s hard to dig out of the pot with a brush or your finger. It just squishes down. Very difficult to blend with no pigment.

Staple in my daily routine

Love westman atelier and this product, though pricey is stunning. I can justify the cost because you get three shadows and they each serve a different purpose. TIP- I use my finger first to break the heart and then use a more dense brush to apply. There is no fall out, and you are left with a nice delicate finish. I have not had an issue with creasing, but apply a little bit of liquid shadow on the lid first

Will return!

The matte set was great, but this one (brown color) left clumps falling on my cheeks and was missing one of the pods (supposed to have three in there) so apparently someone stole one at the store, will open all packaging now before leaving.

Lovely for everyday

I really didn’t want to love this because of the price but it is so good and easy. I have a light skin tone and they all show up on me in the most delicate beautiful way. I have oily eyelids so with a primer they last all day

Chic, Effective and Pricey

I picked this up during the November sale because I am always on the hunt for travel-friendly makeup. The only way to justify the purchase was that I was not paying full price and had a decent amount of trips coming up. I must say, this did not disappoint. Yes, the pots are small but that’s what makes them great to travel with. I’ve used mine 5-10x and have yet to make a dent in any of the pots. The colors go on smooth with a brush and with a finger. They don’t crease if set properly and...

The shadow does cake or become dry. Beautiful color combo

One of my very favorite formulas...

I have 3 of these sets and I really love them, for the texture and that there is NEVER any fallout. I don't use brushes, I always apply with my fingers, even for a 3 shade look, and I get plenty of payoff. If you think it's not worth the money, there are plenty of less expensive options, but I would rather have one luxury item than 15 from walmart. I like the special feeling luxury stuff gives me, and these are top quality. I have so much eyeshadow that I only really want to buy shadows that...

Why so expensive?

Why is this so expensive for 3 pods? $120?? Really??!! Wouldn’t even stay on the whole day.. and if it did, still not worth it..

Does not last long. Would be better as a stick or cream.

Never Again Unless Improved

Neutral colors and texture are beautiful. However, the color payoff and coverage is minimal. Hit pan on the mid range color after the 2nd use. These are not even close to being worth the price.

Perfect for everyday

Absolutely loving the texture and wear of these eyeshadows. Zero fallout and buildable. I also really like that there is no shimmer or glitter.

No thanks!

They barely show up whether I use my finger or a brush. They don’t last at all. It’s insane how poorly these eyeshadows perform for how much they cost. Never again!

Returned it because it did not show any colors on my skin tone. I have brown skin. feels nice though

Sensitive eyes be careful

Beware of ingredients for Toujours. They contain flavor/ aroma. Thankfully I didn’t try and read reviews as well as looking at ingredients!

Got a skin reaction and eyes burned. Expensive and terrible. Cheap.

I wanted to love this….

I wanted to love theses so much…. The colours are beautiful, presentation is perfect but it doesn’t stay. Really, for this price it should not creases so much. Not worth your money, I’ll return them…

Big cost does not equal big performance

I bought Les Nuits as a bday gift for myself. I love the shades but the color payoff needs to be stronger. The lids do not stay tight which worries me that they might come off drying out or letting get all over the inside of my bags

Pretty (and pricey)

Beautiful colors that slide on richly. Not much product for the price especially the base color used most.

Not for sensitive eyes

I wanted to love this but for some reason it made my eyes burn really bad. I have another color story of these pods and I don’t have that problem with that one.

This is the unicorn I've been looking for

I have been looking for a (clean) green cream eyeshadow for a long time, one which is the shade I want AND doesn't bother my sensitive skin like a couple of other clean greens have done, and doesn't flake into my eyes like shimmery powders can do. All of the colors in this palette are stunning, and feel great on my sensitive skin. I use all 3, and put the green on my lids - it goes great with the GXVE Line it Up eyeliner in the color Greener Pastures. It does crease a bit after awhile, but...

Crease & Fade in a matter of minutes

This was a very costly impulse buy. First off, there is hardly any product in the pkg, and it's very hard to get to the product. Using a brush (a Chanel one I already had; the WA brushes are very pricey and don't appear to be made very well) you really need to dig and press to get the shadow on the brush. I followed a tutorial by Westman herself, and of course in the video it looked amazing. I was unable to replicate the look. Very little color payoff, even using multiple layers of the...

I personally love these for a quick wash of color over the eyelids. I use my fingers and find that they blend very well and look beautiful on the eyes. I especially love the lightest shade to highlight the inner corners!

nice

I love the texture and look, I just wish they could be purchased as singles, then I'd get 5 of the champagne!

Can’t stop reaching for this.

I have so many eyeshadow palettes and ever since I got this, I can’t stop reaching for it. In particular, the brown and peach shade. I’m not sure they are the most effortless eyeshadows but the sheen is beautiful.

I really wanted to love these but they were not soft/cream at all.

Wanted to love but didn’t hit the mark.

I really wanted to love these shadows but they’re not worth it at all. The creasing was insane. The idea of them and packaging are great but the product just doesn’t work.

Avoid

I should have paid attention to the other reviews. The application and format of this product is terrible. Somehow it is neither a cream nor a powder and just a messy consistency hard to describe. An unfortunate expensive mistake.

Not great at all

Sadly not good. Tried with my fingers as well as a variety of brushes. There is very little color payout and if you build it up it gets cakey and creases. The darker colors blend out patchy. Not worth the $$

Bad quality great packaging

Bad quality. Barely shows up on my skin. I used a base and still not pigmented enough. Love the packaging it was very well thought out and doesn’t dry up like merit beauty but honestly I’m returning these. Not worth it.

This entire brand is overhyped

These match the quality of the dollar store eyeshadows i bought as a kid.

Perfect look

I actually love these. I use a brush and apply twice for desired effect. The stay put all day and are soft colors that go perfectly with the blush, highlighter, contour, lipgloss and mascara.

Absolutely beautiful

Love the colours and the packaging is like no other; Comes with a cute pouch for storage. The colours give a beautiful natural look that’s not too bold or brazen. So worth the splurge!

Not worth the money

I’m not happy , it’s so hard to pick up the product. And the color never paid off. It’s unbelievable!

Great for older eyes

These are amazing for aged eyes. I see a lot of reviews did not like that they’re not super pigmented, but that’s a plus as you get older. They stay in place and do not emphasize lines. I am thrilled with these.

It's a skip.

Overpriced and looked like mud after I applied. Packaging was nice but that is about it.

Meh

Pretty shades but they don’t do much at all. Not worth the price

Best eyeshadow ever!

I love, love, love this eyeshadow. Not only is the packaging absolutely amazing and cute (didn’t realize they were magnetic), but the eyeshadow itself is beautiful. I don’t ever write reviews, but felt this deserved it. There’s little to no fallout and the pigment is beautiful. The ingredients are clean and wonderful so I highly recommend.

Surprisingly Very Bad

The Westman Atelier packaging gets 10000 stars, but the product itself gets three at best. The colors look so beautiful online and in the pod but unfortunately the pigment just doesn't appear on my eyelids. The formula wants to crease, and does so almost immediately no matter how you apply, if you use primer, etc. and after a few hours the shadow literally disappears. I really wanted to love these (I LOVE Westman Atelier!) but these were are a very rare miss for the brand and I really can't...

Great for me!

These are a total answer to my eyeshadow gripes. I'm an older professional woman with very sensitive eyes. These have zero fallout, blend very well, and do not bother my eyes at all. I actually prefer the sheerness these offer and have not noticed any creasing. I did get the eyeshadow 1 brush along with these so that helps get the product out of the pod, and the size and shape of that brush is perfect.

Not worth the cost

First I must say I normally do not write reviews, but I was so disappointed in the product I felt I had to. I have tried the Westman Atelier bronze, blush and foundation sticks and absolutely love them the quality is so worth the cost. This product has beautiful packaging and the pan colors are beautiful. However, the quality of the eye shadows themselves is absolutely terrible. You really have to layer the product to get the appropriate color payoff and they do not last. This product...

Changed opinion after primer, different applicator

At first I couldn't get these to work for me but I love them so much and they are so pricy I kept trying. I do have oily lids. So I tried them over Too Faced shadow insurance and wow - GORGEOUS. They seemed to look better (smoother and better color pay off) from the start and they stayed on all day. Haven't had a lot of luck with brushes (and I have nice brushes). Fingers ok. I took the applicator out of a Tom Ford quad and found that gave the most beautiful effect. Those little sponge tip...

Not it. The texture is interesting but they don't apply with a brush, and if you use your finger it just gets everywhere. Color payoff is not good, the white shade is chalky, and the warm bronze is basically orange/peach when applied. The rich chocolate shade is the best out of the 3 but not worth the $88 you have to spend to get it. Pass.

Not worth it!!!

Not worth it!!! Can hardly get the color on my lid. I was sure there was something wrong with my pack. Terrible and so expensive!!!

Not worth

This product was a return. Very little pigment pay off despite multiple layers. Packaging is pretty not functional to use because it’s soo tiny is hard to use anything to pick up the eyeshadow itself. Overall it’s not worth the high price point.

Packaging the best ever, eyeshadows fade & crease

I had so many hopes to love it. It looks like as a masterpiece. The packaging super luxurious , it’s my all favorite, well designed & so beautiful and it has the highest quality possible. But the product… it’s where you find this disappointment. The colors are nice, and it has fine glitters inside, it’s super cute. I mean at a glance it’s a perfection. But when you start use it, you understand that you have to use it in a right sequence other wise colors are mixing and no dimension but full...

I wish I had listened to you all, I bought it and returned it as well. I love a subtle shadow, and I’m a fan of a cream shadow— this just didn’t wear very well, the payoff was horrible. I guess I will stick to rms and aethr (Athr?) for soft clean washes. I JUST WANT A PURE, beautiful charcoaly shade of black that is clean. Also an angelic lilac/white/cool complement shade. Makeup goddesses I beseech thee. I am sorry for returning something so expensive.

Disappointing

I wanted to like these pods as I think the colours looked great and the design is genius. However I had to return them as there was literally no colour payoff - the pigment is way too light. Very disappointing.

Lovely Trio

I am 59 yo with hazel eyes , cooler skin tone and have a full time job . I really appreciate the magnetic system which keeps the pods together . The colors are beautiful soft and easy to apply . I haVe used everyday with the peachy color on eyelid and greenish gray as my eyeliner and slightly smudged on outer corner to lift eye . When you’re older it is more difficult to do that flick on outer edge and this formula does not end up smudged under my oily eyes at end of the workday . I do add...

could be better

I was excited to try these eyeshadows. Packaging and presentation are beautiful. Colors are so so pretty but the actual eye shadows have no color payoff and do not blend easily either. After a few minutes the shadow had disappeared from my kids. So disappointing

Very little product in the container

First let me say, I wrote a review for the Westman Atelier site a week ago, confirmed my email address, and it was never posted. Possible a technology error, but if intentional, that's disappointing and makes me question their integrity. I have eye pods in les jours also. The colors are pretty, I love that it's natural. But the amount of product is VERY little for the price. I have not even used the pink color many times- less than 10, and I can see the bottom of the container. Not...

small but mighty

Rendez Vous is my favorite of the trios with Les Nuits second. Yes they are small but they’re perfect for a light wash of color and as an under primer for powder shadows. I just use my finger and lightly press into my lid tho her eye brushes work well for me also. I find they do last quite well and still show through when I use a light layer of powder shadow over them. Khaki and Mink are so pretty when layered together! (Sometimes the pots don’t stay together but it’s not that big of an...

That’s all I Get??

I’ve had this trio for less than a week. I’ve used it three times and have already hit pan on the peach shade!! $88, and I’ve barely used it before nearly running out. I definitely won’t repurchase if that’s all I get, especially for that kind of money.

Over priced for something that doesn’t have enough pigment, it’s patchy, doesn’t blend well and over all hard to apply

Westman Atelier Eye Pods

Two stars for the cuteness factor of these magnetized pods. I also like the soft pretty shade combination. Other than that, they are sadly a fail for me. Just like the Les Jours and Les Nuits, I find the latest addition shade Rendez Vous are not for me: Hard to apply evenly, and, most importantly, the formulation creases within 1-2 hours on my lids. And I usually don’t have that issue with other cream shadows. A YouTuber seemed to like this new trio better than the previous two so I took...

very disappointing.

Extremely disappointed! Of the three only the dark green shows up. Also the formula isn’t creamy at all, just not what I would expect. Not to mention the price tag! Of the products I’ve tried from the line this is by far the most disappointing! Had to return which I rarely do.

Not enough impact

If you are looking for high impact shadows, this product is not for you. That said, and while I absolutely love most of Gucci Westman’s products and own every product in her line (except the lip products), this was the most disappointing product. Even with subtlety in mind, I can’t get the eyeshadows to work with most brushes. Resorting to my finger does not yield better results. The color tabac is unique and has lots of potential. I can’t get niege (the lightest shade) to show up on me....

Rendezvous

I love this brand but these eyeshadows are a bust. They will definitely crease on you within the first hour of application even with an eye primer. I also found the application to be patchy. Rendezvous isn’t worth the $118 CAD price tag. If you want to try Westman Atelier eye pods, I would highly recommend their blush sticks, contour stick or the super loaded highlights.

I have tried many products over the years, but this is the best eyeshadow I have ever used. Worth the price. My eyes just pop, even with a small amount. It can take a couple tries to figure out the application, but then it's super easy and has a beautiful impact.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I LOVE these eyeshadows very much. They work really well w their brushes. Watch some WA tutorial’s and you can see how to use them. I love all their products. Really recommend.

You'll hit pan in a week

Nope nope nope. Lovely colours but so lacking in pigment that it's really not worth purchasing. They'll give the palest wash of colour but even if that's what you like (and I do) it's a lot of work to get them to show up. For the record, I hate overly-done makeup and love an easy, natural enhancement, but these are ridiculous. They're in my crease in a minute, yet if I use a primer they go all patchy while applying. Way too much work to get even a hint of colour visible on the eye. Very...

not worth the money

Not worth it. Wish this had more pigment. Love the shades and texture of the actual product, but for the price it’s not worth it all. You can buy drug store products with more pigment and sheer it out to get the same look. With so much competition in makeup, this brand needs to step it up a little better in the eyeshadow department. Not worth the money, don’t buy this.

Love these eyeshadows. They are easy to apply, the color is deep but subtle, perfect for everyday. And the best is that they stay on! I have watery eyes and usually have a hard time finding a shadow that stays on. I definitely recommend this product, it is worth the price.

Clean and minimal look perfect!

Great product for clean makeup looks but if you are looking for a high pigment shadow, this is not it. I do add the GW bronzer to add some pop to the colors. Overall it’s a great product for a minimal look.

I love all things WA, but the eyeshadow (les jours) was a disappointment. They are very small & very little pigment. Also, the top of each pod won’t stay closed.

Minimalist Makeup Girl's Dream!

FINALLY!!! The absolutely PERFECT eyeshadow solution. Swipe right on, I usually just use my fingers, they blend perfectly, no fallout or unintended smudging, great pigment and staying power through the day. The other thing I love about this set is I use every color equally and they are perfect for every day use and can be amped up for night. The key for me was using a slightly wet brush or finger with the product.

Texture is very difficult and payoff is far too sheer. I felt i had to dig into the pot to get any sense of colour payoff. The tabac colour looked surprisingly copper on my tan skintone. Chocolate is lovely. Too expensive for what you get.

Choose Baby Checks or Superloaded Highlighter

Gucci’s line is my all time favorite which is why these are still in my collection.... Any other eyeshadow that performed like this would be decluttered ASAP. The all over color leans orange, the pods are too small to get ur finger in, the shadow takes work to apply and does not go on easily, eyeshadow creases badly even w primer. I do like the white color for inner eye corner.

meh

I wanted to love these, but they fell flat. I was hoping for an effortless wash of color, but some of the shades had no pigment at all, and the ones that did creased like crazy. The package is beautiful, but gives the illusion you are getting much more product than you are. Definitely NOT worth the price. These should cost half of what they do, but even then I still don’t think they’re worth it.

Worth it if you're only about clean beauty

I'm surprised that I really like these. They do not swatch great, but on the eyes they are really pretty and effortless. The formula is kinda like RDF eye soots, its like a puddy, but acts like a powder shadow when applied. I use my fingers for best application but in the crease I can get away with a morphe brush to blend, not a lot of color deposit with a brush but to be expected with a puddy formula.

Beautiful but no longevity

I own and use daily many of the Westman Atelier products. I really loved the vin shade in this set, the application and wash of color are perfect. I don’t wear a lot of eyeshadow, I’m not good with putting it on so for me these are dummy proof! However, on me they did not last more than 2-3 hours. I do have oilier lids and have a problem with colors staying on, but I tried these with and without a primer and they just would not last. Still I debated about keeping them, but I don’t think I...

Once applied, it looks gorgeous and has terrific staying power with no fallout. I just wish it were a bit easier to apply using the Westman Atelier brushes, which are very soft. I usually have to built it up a bit to get a good wash of color. That said, the colors are gorgeous and flattering.

I bought both sets and I absolutely love them!! Like other people said, if you're looking for some bold and very "out there" eyeshadows this is not for you. This is definitely more on the sheer, natural side and sticks to the brand's whole "natural" look which I really love. I am really bad at eyeshadows so these products are definitely great for me, especially when used with both eyeshadow brushes. I ended up buying both sets

Beautiful shadows. I actually bought these through Westman Atelier. I bought both sets. I absolutely love them. If you are a fan of natural looking makeup you will like these. If you want a heavy, dark and dramatic look these are not for you. Westman Atelier is designed for more of a natural look. I was skeptical because of the product size. I do not find that I use very much. Initially I used my finger but switched to a denser shadow brush. It made a big difference for me. I...

beautiful packaging but not a good product

Very little color payoff. Eyeshadow does not stick to I the brush well. Packaging is very cute and i really wanted to like this product. The eyeshadow applies better when done with your fingers but even then the formula creases and does not stay well.

gorgeous, bouncy, velvety, luxury

Haters will hate. But this palette is beautiful, elegant, natural, and luxurious. They’re cute and magnetic, travel well, and have the perfect bouncy/velvety texture. Not a ton of product, but those of us who don’t want to glitter bomb, “bake”, or contour ourselves will prob never hit bottom of the pan. As with everything in the WA line, this is not for those who want an all day waterproof full coverage selfie face. I’m a beauty junkie and I’ve never seen the bottom of a single eyeshadow...

I was iffy about these. I don’t think they have a ton of color pay off, but I decided to keep them bc they are great for a fast running late morning. This might sound stupid, it since the shadow is so low in the container, you can just slam your brush in, circle it all around, and slap it on your eyes. I won’t use this every day, but the lighter color mixed with speed and ease of use makes it a go to for lazy days when I don’t wanna do much.

Eye Pods

I have been a fan of the brand ever since its inception and many of their products are good, including the blush sticks and foundation. These pods however are a fail on me: - difficult to apply evenly, even with her brush - creasing/fading within an hour, and my eyelids are not oily So while I don't mind the softness of the pigment the creasing is the dealbreaker for me. I have both sets, and both have that issue. Also, the formulation dries out quickly, even when the pods are closed...

Luxe , small but mighty!

Luxe heavy packaging tho small, well thought out color schemes in both pod sets tho lightest shade doesn’t show too much in Les Jours. Prefer in Nuits set. Great for sensitive eyes with clean ingredients, no itch or reaction. Very easy to apply with brush or fingers and comfy but as others mentioning they don’t last forever on their own. I often use mine as first layer which works well and shades still show nicely. My favorite shades tend to be the darkest ones as they also sheer out with...

Buy Tom Ford Instead

I followed Gucci’s tutorial, but these shadows don’t have the same level of pigment that she seems to get in the video. Even when using the brush specifically designed for these, I have to scrub the shadow at least 5 times across the pan to pull up any visible product. I posted a picture of my rather aggressive scrapings on my very pale inner arm (in natural light). Not only is there negligible pigment, but the little that is there immediately falls into the tiny creases of my skin, giving...

Packaging is so fun, and the tool darker shades are great. I will say these crease a bit but in a cool french girl way... they layer well with a highlighter balm on the lid for a more glossy look. If you like staying power and bright colors this isn’t for you... but that’s not really the vibe for these any ways. I would have given 5 stars but the white shadow is a bit of a dud.

Les Jours Eyeshadow Pods

I have a love/hate relationship with these eyeshadow pods. I love how easily they go on the lids when you just need a wash of colour. They give a sophisticated sheer eye look. They can be built up as well. The formula is has a cream bounce like texture. It can be used with fingers or a brush. However, these do crease and the longevity is not there. The color does fade when worn throughout the day. Tabac is not true to color as you would see in the pod. It leans warm and orange in tone.

Amazing Eye pods

I have both Les Nuits and Les Jours. I am huge fan of Westman Atelier products. But I want to make a point that I love their eyeshadows!! My eyes are super sensitive, gets very itchy, and gets lots of eye booger (sorry for the TMi) when using other products. But this doesn't. I can wear it all day long and doesn't get any irrations. Thank you so much for this. I hope there will be more other colors soon.

Westman Atelier is the reason I wear eyeshadow! I am not kidding. I love playing around with these. They’re so easy to layer on your eye lids and it really goes from day (read: Zoom calls while WFH) to night (outdoor dining with hubby). Depending on the look I’m going for, I use an eyeshadow brush or just my fingers. I will be purchasing Les Nuits soon.

Elegant Dreamy Eyes

I have both Day & Night Eye Pods & Find them Brillant from Shade Selection to Clever Luxe Packaging. Both have a Wonderful CORE shade that can be worn alone with a bit of peau de rose, peche or Soleil over it. I personally like mixing & matching from both to create different looks from very Natural to Smoky drama. As for application the Proper Brushes as Always, make all the difference. Longevity all Day no creasing or touch up required. Love the Magnetic feature as you can stack on your...

These are so pretty but fairly difficult to apply. Packaging is not convenient. Would not repurchase.
