W3LL People

Amber and the staff at W3ll People have always been good to me over the years. She has made me look fabulous several times.
Despite objections, my 10 year old god daughter insists on wearing makeup. I figured if she was going to wear make up, she would wear a great brand with excellent products. I knew exactly where to take her.
Amber took the time to educate my god daughter about taking care of her skin, the products, how to apply them… with the emphasis of a natural look. There are no words to truly express my gratitude for her special care and attention. THANK YOU!!!

I’m a big fan of this company, their products, and their mission! Organic, natural, and 100% transparency with all of their ingredients.
After learning about the «dirty dozen» toxic chemicals in most common beauty products:
I decided to throw away all of my old toxic makeup and use non-​toxic products only, which (unfortunately) is not an easy thing to do. Thankfully, companies like W3ll People exist!
I love their concealer, lip stick, and mascara. Can’t wait to try more products!

I love supporting local businesses and I love healthy and nontoxic products. W3LL PEOPLE fits that bill. I have been wearing this makeup for the last 3 – 4 years and will not wear any other makeup.

The staff here makes you feel like a part of the family, every time you walk through the doors. Rachel is especially wonderful — she’s always willing to help me with whatever facial issues I’ve got going on. The products are expensive, but they are SO SO worth it.
If you’re looking for an entire lifestyle change (or you just want to try out a super great product or two to see what this natural beauty is all about) OR if you want to chat with some crazy awesome people about your face/​skin/​whatever, you’ve gotta come in the store.
Oh, and be sure to check out their events, too! They’ve got lots of cool ones.

I took my gf here for her bday makeover. I told the makeup artist three times how she liked or hoped for her makeup to look, and what kind of style/​vibe would be best, and the girl refused to listen. She did a decent job of teaching her how to apply the products though but makeover was sloppy and when we left, my gf cried in the parking lot.
I have seen my gf cry a total of three times in my life, so it was a shock… and not what I wanted considering I was trying to make her happy and those inside knew that.
Now, I would have given one star for that but the products are really really good, according to my gf. Her skin cleared up just from the change in foundations. The lipstick looks great. She has since been much more confident and happy with her appearance as the products were worth the hundreds of dollars spent. She is much happier in life and now knows what great makeup can do for a woman. Additional customer service was also given without asking for it, and overall she would go back to get products… but never again to get a makeover.
On a side note, why are all the foundation colors in this place for white people? Not one color looked to be for anyone darker than an olive skinned Italian woman, or possibly a Latina. I am an artist so am aware of flesh colors and was surprised to see that the place was so heavily geared toward Caucasian skin. Being a little more inclusive with the products on display might help the impression given. Just a thought…

READ THE LABELS. This people claim to sell «all natural» beauty products, however they are using known carcinogens in their mineral powder, I will NO LONGER be a customer. Shame on you people.

I was an actress in the Vagina Monologues years ago, and somehow we ended up with a private cast party here. After being an «in between shade» of the bare minerals colors other places, and always feeling that my foundation shade was just a tad too dark, this place was a breath of fresh air. Also, Im pretty mucch makeuopo challenged, so Ill take all the advice I can get!
Their mineral foundation was incredible. After my makeover, I took a bunch of selfies, drank some wine, and bought everything.
Now, budgets are tight, and I live halfway across the world from here (Round Rock), but the lovely W3ll people folks looked me up in the system and shipped me my foundation. I look forward to more products in the future. i cant say enough good here!

This is my only go to for anything beauty and education anywhere it is a true hidden golden nugget. The ladies over there are not only extremely helpful and sweet but insanely talented and knowledgeable. My friend got her make-​up done for her wedding and it was beautiful and natural. I have had such a hard time finding products that don’t irritate my skin and are ACTUALLY completely natural but still perform actively in the ways we want and they say they will. They are living proof you can have your cake and eat it too. They carry high performance skincare lines that no one else has and their make-​up line is the only one that works to perfection and feels amazing… oh and did I mention chemical-​free and toxin-​free!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting the owners at one of the studio events that was not only a great party, free, AND a perfect education session for local natural beauty lovers. They do super fun events with other local companies and do a wide variety of make-​up lessons.
If you need make-​up for an event, wedding, night out on the town… I will never go anywhere else because these artists are incredibly talented and my skin is safe there. Truly living up to their clever slogan «Hippie Tested Diva Approved». Lets face it, if you love cosmetics and taking care of your skin, but do not want to compromise your health this is the only source that delivers.
BEST DISCOVERY EVER!!! Shirley is truly an inspiration and her creation from scratch is unmatched and I feel truly blessed to have been able to meet her and get a few minutes to pick her brain. The world thanks you W3LL PEOPLE.

I purchased a lip balm after sampling many of their products at an apothecary in my neighborhood. I like their vision and statement! I like that I’m getting a «clean product». Then I opened my new balm only to find a paper inlet that went on and on to describe in one sentence how to use the said balm in several languages. Why not type it all on one fold or maybe two, but 5? It seems that for a contentious product thats brand reflects simplicity in materials, they should also have it reflected in the packaging.

9÷2÷14 — Just wanted to post a brief update to say that I’ve been using the One Love Organics Chia Whip face wash and a REN moisturizer for a few months, and I am not exaggerating when I say that my skin has never looked this good in my entire life. So not only did I have a great experience at W3ll People, the products are outstanding.

Cannot say enough good things about this shop. I walked in after a workout, and Amber was lovely from beginning to end. She let me look around to take it all in, then let me know about some of her favorite products. Then I asked her what she would suggest for me based on my concerns and she gave me suggestions from different lines, letting me test things out and pick my favorites. She also let me leave with samples, which is huge for me as my skin is pretty picky about what I put on it. I will most certainly be back!

This has to be one of the cutest places! I was greeted by the fabulous Christine and she had me at hello! After browsing around on my own I was given a tour of the store and a full explanation of the product lines offered as well as their mission and message. Christine was just so freaking amazing, it felt like we were old friends catching up. I will definitely visit again soon!

I don’t even know where to begin with this place! First of all, I was intrigued by W3ll People makeup after seeing it on Birchbox. I stopped in to pick up some of their mineral setting powder. I love that all the products have good for you ingredients. Kelly was so wonderful and helpful. This Austin store also sells other «healthy» skincare products so I was quick to pick Kelly’s brain about her favorites. She turned me on to a spot treatment from Arcona that she swears by.
I also had my eyebrows threaded for the first time while I was there and my life has been forever changed (my brows are thanking me!). The experience was so amazing and ended with the most glorious head massage! I wanted to lay there forever.
I can’t wait to go back next time I’m in Austin. I love that you can have your Well People makeup refilled (loose powders). I also love that there is a place carrying all kinds of natural products all in one place and all vetted by the staff. You MUST visit when you’re in Austin.

I went in yesterday to get a make up color adjustment consult and Christine was such an awesome help. She always knows how to make you feel beautiful and comfortable in the store. The products, ambience and staff is all so well crafted and in my opinion should be the goal for all retail businesses in Austin.

Christine and Rachel are fabulous. My aesthetician recommended I come here to convert from using MAC foundation that is not good for my skin type to something more natural and clean. I got a complete makeover! It was so much fun and I learned a lot. My new products (I bought almost everything) are amazing and I look and feel younger. That’s a big deal at 40, ladies! Christine– you rock. I’m coming back for you to do some magic on my brows!

Love the ladies and the products at W3ll People! Having just completed breast cancer treatment, I knew I wanted to find products and cosmetics not full of dangerous chemicals, but wasn’t sure where to start. I was at a low both physically and psychologically the day I walked into the store and felt about 105 years old. All that was about to change! Christine, Rachel and Kelly could not have been kinder or more helpful. They really know their stuff and made me feel right at home. I ended up getting a fabulous makeover and learning some great makeup tips. Love their stick foundation, lip color and gloss. The vibe in the shop is warm and welcoming and the skin care products they carry are miracle workers. Warning: this place is addictive!

I had a little time to kill before meeting up with a girlfriend for happy hour down the street and decided to pop into W3LL People based on all of the Unilocal love. Little did I know that I stumbled upon the most fun retail experience I’ve had, maybe ever? I was welcomed with samples of Delysia chocolate (little nuggets from heaven) and — when the girls discovered it was my first visit — I was promptly plopped into a chair and tag-​teamed by Rachel and Christine as they gave me the run-​down on their all organic product line. The standouts were the Narcissist foundation stick that gave me a lovely all-​over glow without veering into greasy-​ville and the Universalist color stick in rose that delivered a natural-​looking flush. I prefer makeup with a light touch, and they nailed it. I looked like a more polished and pretty version of myself when I walked out the door. Plus, the ladies were so gosh darn friendly… it felt like I happened upon a sleepover with a gaggle of best friends I never knew I had. Heck, Rachel even ran across the street to grab my friend and have her join in the fun while I was mid-​makeover! I have no doubt that W3ll People will become a regular destination for me, thanks to the high-​quality products and the customer service that was just beyond.

I heard about W3ll People after paying a friend a compliment on her gorgeous complexion. She was quick to give W3ll People some credit for her glowing skin.
I stopped by W3ll People to learn more about their products and get a mini makeup lesson. I wanted several products but I left with the one item I couldn’t walk away without, their cream based Narcissist stick. My seconds visit I stopped by to purchase a bronzer while on my way to get pictures taken. When I told the makeup artist what I was up to after this visit she quickly glitterfied my eyelids with their Elitist Shimmer Mineral Shadow and applied eyeliner resulting in the dramatic look I was looking for. I was so happy with the end result I couldn’t hug or thank her enough!
Their products are pricey otherwise I would own everything they sell. A huge plus is the company is based in Austin and their products are certified organic with ingredients you can pronounce.

W3LL People is AWESOME! My wife and I moved away from Austin 1.5 years ago and have continued to shop at W3ll People via the phone or in person when we visit Austin. Why would we do that when there are other stores nearby? The answer my friend is simple. Christine and Kelly are ROCKSTARS and Shirley is an angel from heaven! The quality of the products are second to none.
When we call in, Christine always answers the phone with such a bright and friendly voice and then because she is a true skin-​care professional — helps guide us. People tell me that I look 10 years younger than I did 5 years ago. If we ever have a problem with any product, Christine and Kelly simply replace it for us.
They have gone so far out of their way to take care of us that they have earned our loyalty for life. I just can’t say enough good things and I am not blowing smoke up anyones backside.
Feel free to message me if you are seriously wanting to know anything about W3ll People. Or even better, just stop by and talk to Christine or Kelly! You will make a new best friend and look and smell even better when you leave!
XO’s

I’m, or at least was, a gullible make up slut – always willing to dump one as soon as another comes along that promises youth and beauty. The foundation has become my go to cosmetic item, especially as I get older and my skin looses its luster and even tone. For me, a good foundation must have to following criteria 1– easy to put on 2– stays on my face and 3– gives me a natural, youthful appearance. I have used many different lines of make-​up, from ultra high-​end Orlane Paris to budget friendly Cover Girl cosmetics. The high end products were great; however, I had a hard time justifying price. The budget friendly products did not give sufficient coverage or gave too much coverage where you’ll need a spatula to remove it.
Make up is personal. You either like the product or the product is just not right for you. I’m addicted to the W3ll make up line, first introduced to me by my dermatologist (she was one of the creators) almost a year ago. Not only is this company local and environmentally friendly, the foundation and lip glosses here are excellent. I love the foundation stick. Put it on like a sunscreen stick and use the heat of your fingers to blend. The coverage is light, yet because of the light reflecting minerals, your skin has a dewy glow. The lip sticks are tinted and very hydrating –no more Granny lips.
The products are not inexpensive, but I think they are a great value. In addition to make up, they have a small selection of lotions, cleansers and scrubs. Shirley, one of the founders, is very hands-​on and will help you find the right product. Everyone is very friendly and the store is minimal and clean.
