Which skin type is the Setting Veil suitable for?

This natural setting powder is suitable for all skin types – from sensitive and oily to dry and mature skin, everyone benefits from the mineral ingredients.

Sensitive skin:
For rosacea, eczema or blemish-prone skin, this vegan setting powder is the perfect choice. The mineral ingredients have a soothing, non-comedogenic effect, keeping pores clear and allowing the skin to breathe. The formula contains no parabens, silicones or artificial fragrances – minimising the risk of allergic reactions.

Oily & combination skin:
The matte texture absorbs excess shine and ensures a fresh, even finish without drying out the skin. Silica minerals absorb oil in the T-zone, keeping make-up matte for up to 12 hours. The veil powder blends invisibly.

Dry skin:
The feather-light texture sits gently on the skin without causing additional dryness. The natural ingredients respect the skin barrier and preserve moisture.

Mature skin:
This vegan veil powder optically minimises fine lines. Boron Nitride creates a soft-focus effect, preventing foundation from settling into wrinkles – for a smooth, youthful complexion.

In a nutshell:
The non-comedogenic mineral formula makes this setting powder universally applicable – from sensitive to mature skin, without compromise.
 

How to apply the Setting Powder correctly

The right application makes all the difference for a perfect finish. Precise steps guarantee maximum longevity and a natural look.

As a primer (before foundation):

1. Apply the veil powder to cleansed skin using a large, fluffy powder brush.

2. Concentrate on areas with enlarged pores or fine lines.

3. Pat gently onto the skin – do not rub, to protect the skin's texture.

4. Follow with your foundation as usual – it will adhere better and last longer.
    

As a setting powder (after foundation):

1. Wait a moment for the foundation to absorb.

2. Pick up a small amount of setting powder with a brush or puff.

3. Gently pat or roll the powder onto the skin – especially on the nose, forehead and chin to set make-up for up to 12 hours.

4. For extra hold: Press lightly, leave to sit, and brush away any excess powder – creating the professional "baking" effect.
    

Pro tip – The Sandwich Method:
For exceptionally long-lasting wear, use the natural setting powder both before and after foundation. This technique ensures maximum hold by locking the foundation between two layers of powder. This keeps your make-up in place even in warm temperatures or during long days. The natural powder blends effortlessly.

In a nutshell:
The sandwich method – powder before and after foundation – extends make-up wear to up to 12 hours.
 

The ingredients in detail

Transparency is the foundation of informed buying decisions.
Here you can find out exactly what is in this vegan setting powder and what function each ingredient serves.

Full ingredient list:
Mica, Silica, Boron Nitride, +/- CI77491, CI77492, CI77499, CI77007
Contents: 4g
 

How it works:

• Mica (natural mica mineral): Provides a gentle, natural glow. Light is softly reflected, creating an even, radiant complexion without any artificial shimmer. The translucent powder adapts to every skin tone.

• Silica: Absorbs excess oil and moisture, mattifies the skin and extends make-up wear for up to 12 hours. At the same time, silica ensures the silky, smooth texture of the vegan veil powder. Its porous structure absorbs sebum, keeping the skin matte all day.

• Boron Nitride: This premium ingredient is responsible for the weightless feel. The powder blends effortlessly, visually minimises fine lines and creates a soft-focus effect. This makes the natural setting powder particularly suitable for mature skin. Boron Nitride improves adhesion, keeping make-up in place for longer.

• Mineral colour pigments (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499, CI77007): Natural iron oxides and ultramarine blue ensure perfect colour adaptation. These pigments contain no synthetic dyes. The translucent powder blends into any skin tone without leaving a grey cast or unnatural tint.
   

In a nutshell:
Just seven natural ingredients – Mica for glow, Silica for mattifying, Boron Nitride for a soft-focus finish – deliver professional results without chemical additives.

What is NOT in our Setting Powder – and why

Certain ingredients have no place in our vegan setting powder – for scientifically sound reasons.
Here you can learn which substances are excluded and how this benefits your skin health and the environment.

Excluded ingredients:

• Microplastics & nanoparticles: Can penetrate the skin and permanently pollute the environment. We rely on natural minerals in skin-friendly sizes. Microplastics are not biodegradable and accumulate in water systems and organisms.

• Talc: Often contaminated with heavy metals such as asbestos and can clog pores. We use pure silica for the mattifying effect in our veil powder – purer and safer, with zero risk of contamination.

• Animal products: Carmine, beeswax and other animal-derived ingredients are excluded from vegan cosmetics. This guarantees a 100% vegan formulation for our vegan setting powder – without compromise.

• Parabens & silicones: Parabens are preservatives that can disrupt hormones. Silicones form a film over the skin, blocking its natural ability to breathe. This natural powder allows the skin to breathe, preserving long-term skin health.

• Mineral oils & petrochemical products: Petroleum-based ingredients clog pores and offer no nutritional value to the skin. We use exclusively plant-based and mineral alternatives.

• Palm oil & extracts: Completely excluded for environmental reasons. Palm oil cultivation destroys rainforests – we completely avoid it to protect biodiversity.

• Artificial fragrances & dyes: Common triggers for allergies. Our pure natural setting powder contains no artificial fragrances and is unscented, significantly reducing the risk of allergy.

• Aluminium, lead & heavy metals: Can accumulate in the body and damage organs. Strict quality controls exclude heavy metals.

• Gluten, soy, lactose: Suitable for allergy sufferers. Intentional omission guarantees maximum tolerance during daily use

• Non-comedogenic:
  All ingredients are selected to ensure they do not clog pores – even with daily use of the vegan veil powder. Clinical tests confirm its non-comedogenic properties, making it safe for acne-prone skin.
   

  In a nutshell:
  Free from 15 problematic ingredient groups – from microplastics and parabens to heavy metals – this setting powder is the safest choice for sensitive skin and the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a vegan setting powder and how does it differ from conventional powders?

A vegan setting powder is a makeup-fixing powder made entirely without any animal-derived ingredients. Unlike conventional powders, it contains no components such as carmine (derived from cochineal insects), beeswax, lanolin (wool fat), or collagen. Instead, it is based on mineral or plant-based ingredients. Furthermore, vegan setting powders are developed and tested without animal testing. Functionally, they serve the same purpose as conventional powders: they set makeup, mattify the skin, and ensure longer wear.
 

What ingredients does a vegan mineral setting powder contain?

Vegan mineral setting powders typically contain natural minerals such as silica, mica, kaolin (white clay), or rice powder. Cornstarch, tapioca starch, or bamboo powder are also frequently used as absorbent components. Some products additionally include nourishing botanicals such as aloe vera or vitamin E. The exact composition varies depending on the brand, but all ingredients are purely plant-based or mineral. High-quality products also bypass synthetic fragrances, parabens, and silicones.
 

Is vegan setting powder suitable for sensitive skin?

Vegan mineral setting powders are often well-suited for sensitive skin, as they generally avoid harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, and potential allergens. The mineral ingredients are usually well-tolerated and non-comedogenic, meaning they do not clog pores. Nevertheless, if you have very sensitive skin, you should check the ingredient list and perform a patch test if in doubt. Products with organic or natural cosmetic certifications often provide extra reassurance. If you have known allergies, it is best to verify the specific ingredients beforehand.

How long does makeup last when using a vegan setting powder?

With a high-quality vegan setting powder, makeup typically lasts between 6 and 12 hours, depending on skin type, environmental conditions, and the foundation used. Its longevity is comparable to that of conventional setting powders. Mineral formulas are particularly effective at absorbing excess sebum, which aids in mattifying and setting the makeup. For optimum results, the powder should be applied sparingly after foundation. For very oily skin or long days, a quick touch-up after a few hours can maintain the freshness of the makeup.
 

What certifications should a vegan setting powder have?

Recommended certifications for vegan setting powders include the Vegan Trademark from the Vegan Society, PETA's "Cruelty-Free and Vegan" logo, or the Leaping Bunny certification for cruelty-free practices. Natural cosmetic seals such as COSMOS, NATRUE, BDIH, or Ecocert additionally guarantee natural ingredients and sustainable production. In Germany, the VEBU label (now ProVeg) is also widely recognised. These certifications are awarded and regularly reviewed by independent organisations. They provide peace of mind that the product is genuinely vegan and free from animal testing. While not all excellent products carry a seal, certifications do make the purchasing decision much easier.
 

Are vegan setting powders truly cruelty-free?

Vegan setting powders should inherently be cruelty-free, as this is part of the definition of vegan cosmetics. However, standards can vary: some brands only forgo animal testing on the finished product, whilst the individual ingredients may have been tested in the past. Truly cruelty-free products carry certifications like Leaping Bunny or PETA "Cruelty-Free", which also vet the entire supply chain. Although animal testing for cosmetics has been banned in the EU/UK since 2013, exceptions may apply when products are sold in countries like China. For absolute certainty, look for the relevant seals and transparent manufacturer claims.
 

How do you recognise a high-quality vegan mineral setting powder?

A high-quality vegan mineral setting powder can be identified by several features: the ingredient list should be short, easy to understand, and free from questionable additives. The texture should be finely milled, allowing it to apply evenly without caking or leaving patches. It should be translucent or match various skin tones without leaving a white cast. Certifications from recognised organisations speak for quality and transparency. Positive customer reviews and recommendations from makeup professionals are further indicators. Premium products offer excellent mattifying properties without drying out the skin, and reliably lock makeup in place.
 

What are the benefits of a vegan setting powder compared to conventional products?

Vegan setting powders offer several benefits: they are free from animal ingredients and cruelty-free, fulfilling ethical consumer preferences. Mineral formulations are often gentler on sensitive skin because they avoid harsh chemicals. The natural ingredients are frequently more environmentally friendly. Many vegan products are also free from parabens, silicones, and synthetic fragrances. Their lightweight, breathable textures are ideal for daily use. Furthermore, purchasing them supports more sustainable and animal-friendly production methods. Functionally, vegan setting powders are just as effective as conventional ones.
 

 What is the correct way to apply vegan setting powder?

Vegan setting powder is applied after foundation and concealer. Using a large, fluffy powder brush, pick up a small amount of powder and tap off the excess. Then, gently pat or sweep the powder onto the skin, focusing particularly on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) where the skin tends to get shiny. For more intense staying power, you can use the "baking" technique: apply a generous amount of powder to the desired areas, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, and then dust off the excess. Alternatively, you can press the powder into the skin using a damp beauty sponge. Remember, less is often more – too much powder can make the makeup look dry.
 

Is vegan mineral setting powder suitable for professional makeup artists?

Yes, vegan mineral setting powder is absolutely suitable for professional makeup artists. Many professional brands now offer high-quality vegan options that meet the rigorous demands of the industry. These products deliver reliable setting, excellent mattifying properties, and are available in a variety of shades. Mineral powders are particularly advantageous for photoshoots and film, as they do not cause flashback. Their skin-friendly properties make them ideal for long days on set or for clients with sensitive skin. Many makeup artists prefer vegan products for ethical reasons and due to their clean, skin-compatible formulations. In terms of quality and performance, they are on par with professional conventional products.
