Another week, another Westman Atelier launch I want

When Westman Atelier debuted Eye Pods a while back, I was smitten with the packaging alone. Featuring three shades of cream-to-powder eyeshadow in three different magnetic pots, I instantly envisioned an easier-to-navigate “eye color” section in my makeup drawer—and being able to recognize which was which at a glance.
