Westmore Beauty Body Coverage Perfector, From a Hollywood Makeup Dynasty

Westmore Beauty Body Coverage Perfector, From a Hollywood Makeup Dynasty

Westmore Beauty Body Coverage Perfector is body camouflage from the family that built Hollywood's first film makeup department. Here it is with full-coverage concealers, body glows and sunless tanners for legs that look finished.

In 1917 the British hairdresser George Westmore set up the first hair and makeup department for films in Hollywood, and six of his children went on to become movie makeup artists, with a family star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. McKenzie Westmore, his great-great-granddaughter, an actress who hosted Syfy's Face Off, started Westmore Beauty to continue that legacy, and the Westmore Beauty Body Coverage Perfector is its best seller. It is a body camouflage and illuminator built on treated pigments and crushed pearls in a flexible gel, and she says it nods to her family painting stockings on women's legs during World War II, when real ones were scarce. Think of it as body makeup for legs, arms and chest. The brand launched on QVC. For spot coverage on the face, full-coverage concealers do the same job at smaller scale: Hourglass's Vanish gives an airbrushed finish from the brand Carisa Janes founded in 2004, Anastasia Soare, who built her Beverly Hills brow business on the golden ratio, makes Magic Touch, a lighter brightening option, and Dior's Forever Skin Correct wears up to 24 hours.

Glow for bare legs

If you want sheen more than coverage, a body glow blurs and brightens. Sivan Ayla named Lux Unfiltered after her blog's slogan, and Golden Era is a blurring body glow. Heela Yang started Sol de Janeiro after moving to Brazil and noticing how comfortable women were on the beach, and the Body Badalada lotion and the Glowmotions oil both carry that ease. Patrick Ta built his first collection, Major Glow, around red-carpet techniques, and the body crème gives high shine for evening. These wash off in the shower, so they suit a single night out, and they layer well over a light tan. Pat on a little extra along the shinbone, where light hits first.

Color that lasts, and the skip

For a few days of color, sunless tan is easier than makeup. James Read, who spray-tanned clients in London department stores for two decades, makes Sunbright tinted drops. Dr. Dennis Gross, a dermatologist and former skin cancer researcher, launched his New York brand in 2000, and the glow pads are premeasured towelettes for body. Isabel Alysa's Dolce Glow wand contours and tans in one, and Mishel Chernyavskiy, who taught herself spray tanning from YouTube as a high school senior, launched MSK Labs in 2026 with The Quickie, a rinse-off express gel. What I would skip is body camouflage under white clothes. Let it set fully, or it will mark fabric.

Applying it evenly

Moisturize first and let it sink in. Apply with your hands or a body brush in thin layers, blending outward. Let each layer set before the next. Remove at night with a cleansing oil and a washcloth. Test a small patch the day before an event, and keep wearing sunscreen, since none of these protect you.
