GRWM: MERIT vs. WESTMAN ATELIER - Which Clean Beauty Brand is the Best?!

[@Natashaz48]

I agree. I switched to all WA products and could not be happier. My skin looks amazing, I'm 62, and the products are superb.

[@kointheknow]

That’s amazing to hear! I love that you are having such a good experience 💗

[@yveyve7115]

Thanks for the comparison. If both are very similar, I sometimes purchase the least expensive even though it may not be the most cost effective. The reason being I never finish a product because I enjoy purchasing other colors or similar products from different manufacturers.

[@kointheknow]

Oh that’s such a good point! I guess you’re right it’s hard to finish a product all the way through. In this case merit may be the best for you! It’s a great makeup line and a bit cheaper than westman atelier.

[@littlelilacbunny]

The WA side looks so much better on you! Thanks for a great in depth review ❤❤

[@kointheknow]

Awww thanks! I need to do an updated video now that both brands have come out with more products!

Fantastic video comparing two brands I'm just getting into. It was super helpful to see the side-by-side comparisons. Thank you so much!

[@kointheknow]

Amazing thanks so much for watching! 💗💗💗 let me know which products you end up getting 🥰

[@regiz3418]

thank you so much for this review! Everything I needed to know but still short and sweet ☺

[@kointheknow]

Thank you so much for watching my video and stopping by my channel! I’m glad the information was helpful 💗

[@domdahlia]

What color are you in merit for foundation stick?

[@kointheknow]

I use the shade called ‘bone’ which I believe is the lightest one! It’s fair with cool undertones 💗

[@maggiel1368]

Both looks really nice on you and super similar at least after the application on ur face

[@kointheknow]

Thank you so much! Yes I did find them to be pretty similar, so I think depending on what you’re looking for either brand can work for you!

[@yitdiytdytdytidiytd]

There’s a vegan refillable foundation stick and products that I received in boxycharm it’s amazing 😉

[@kointheknow]

Oh I’ve heard of boxy charm! That’s awesome

[@amandacrozier5368]

Great review and comparison😀

[@kointheknow]

Thanks so much!

[@SincerelyDieuwke]

Sad to discover this brand via this video and finding out i cant get it here in holland🥺

[@kointheknow]

Oh no! Is there a Sephora in Holland? I know Westman atelier also sells their products in certain department stores!

[@victoriacarter2972]

What color are you using westman and in Merit?

[@kointheknow]

Petal in WA and Beverly Hills in merit!

[@victoriacarter2972]

thank you i want to know color in foundation

[@kointheknow]

@@victoriacarter2972 in WA I use atelier II and in merit I use bone for under eyes and bisque for other areas of my face!

[@piercingtheveil40]

What about staying power? You never did a wear test. Too bad because that’s one of the most important factors. No product is worth anything if it disappears in an hour!

[@b.t.734]

I tend to see people praising a product design based on weight. Have you actually thought about getting ready for your on the go purse..yes, exactly, the one you carry with you around (office, errands, childcare facility, groceries..) not in your SUV but actually on your body? ..just a thought

[@kointheknow]

What a great idea! I’ll definitely do an on the go makeup tutorial. Thanks so much for watching my video and leaving such a thoughtful suggestion! 💗

Merit has great marketing, unfortunately I had one of the most disappointing Customer Experience with them. I was supposed to get both the Signature bag and Summer bag accdg to my confirmation email, but none arrived. When I asked for it, they gave me a free shipping voucher which is about $5. Now I wish I spent all $120 on Westman Atelier instead.

[@kointheknow]

Omg no way! I haven’t had a customer experience issue, so I’m so sorry to hear that! Sometimes that’s why I choose to buy products at bigger retailers like Sephora since they have a larger infrastructure to support customers.

[@dyanbadua3057]

@@kointheknow I bought via their website because I wanted the Signature and Summer bag. I should’ve just bought at Sephora 🥲

[@kointheknow]

@@dyanbadua3057 Aw man I’m so sorry! That’s such a bummer 😿

[@dyanbadua3057]

@@kointheknow right? I’m based in the Philipines and on vacation in the US. I bought Merit so I have makeup on the go. I was looking forward to using the tote as well. Anyway, I just checked out Westman Atelier products. I’m hoping to get better experience. Have a great night!
