In the formula
Every name has a purpose
- 01
MicaOn the label: Ethically Sourced MicaMinerals ↗It is the body of the baked pressed formulas — the platelet structure is what lets a powder sit flat on skin, diffuse light instead of sitting on top of it, and carry pigment evenly across the face. - 02
Sericite MicaOn the label: Sericite MicaMinerals ↗It refines the texture of the base. Where mica gives the powder its body, sericite gives it slip — the fine particle size is what makes a pressed mineral feel silky rather than chalky under a brush. - 03
Jojoba Seed OilOn the label: Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed OilBotanical Oils ↗It is the reason a dry pressed powder behaves like a cream. Jojoba softens at skin temperature and blends with your own oils, which is what gives the baked pressed line its shade-adaptive wear and buildable medium-to-full coverage without a powdery edge. - 04
Lavender Flower ExtractOn the label: Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Flower ExtractBotanical Extracts ↗Part of the botanical preservation system. Lavender has traditionally been used to help keep formulas fresh, which is how we hold a powder stable without parabens or phenoxyethanol. - 05
Thyme ExtractOn the label: Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) ExtractBotanical Extracts ↗Part of the botanical preservation system. Thyme is traditionally used to help keep formulas fresh, and it is one of the reasons the ingredient list can end at nine names. - 06
Green Tea ExtractOn the label: Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) ExtractBotanical Extracts ↗An antioxidant botanical that helps protect the oils in the formula from going off, so the compact stays true through the life of the pan. - 07
Vitamin EOn the label: Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)Vitamins ↗It does two jobs at once: it conditions the powder so it reads soft on skin, and it works with the rosemary and green tea to keep the oil phase stable. - 08
Rosemary Leaf ExtractOn the label: Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf ExtractBotanical Extracts ↗The most established natural antioxidant in the botanical preservation system. It guards the jojoba and safflower oils against oxidation, which is what lets us skip a synthetic preservative. - 09
Iron OxidesOn the label: Iron Oxides (non-nano, uncoated)Pigments ↗This is the color. Three oxides in different ratios make every shade we sell, which is why the shades read as skin rather than as paint, and why they do not oxidize orange over the day. - 10
Safflower Seed OilOn the label: Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed OilBotanical Oils ↗It is the one addition that separates the blush from the foundation. Blush needs to sheer out and stop where you stop it, and safflower's lighter body gives the pigment a longer, more forgiving blend window on the cheek.
How this compares
Long-Lasting Silky-Soft Pressed Mineral Blush against a conventional compact.
A complete list should be standard. Trade-secret and fragrance rules can legally compress combinations, while other gaps may come from incomplete formulation knowledge. Our ladder is the evidence; the formula experience and meaningful alternatives are the difference.
Product questions, answered
Before you make it yours.
Practical answers drawn from this product’s formula, finish, and wear.
How it wears & how to use
Choose the shade you truly blush — hold the pan beside the flush on your own cheek after exercise, not beside your foundation.
The safflower oil gives you a longer blend window than a standard mineral blush, so a heavy first tap is recoverable.
Build from the apple outward with a light hand; the pigment load is high.
Is it right for your skin?
A literally baked mineral blush with airy pigment and a forgiving, buildable blend.
The foundation's shade-adaptive base plus safflower oil for a longer blend window.

Is there carmine in this blush?

How is this different from the pressed foundation?
One ingredient: safflower seed oil, added last. Everything above it is identical.
In their words
A few perspectives.
“Carmine is what I react to and it is in almost every blush on the shelf. This one I can wear.”
“Tropical Sunrise looks alarming in the pan and completely natural on the cheek. A tiny amount goes a long way.”
