Active Brightening Veil

Glass skin, delivered fresh for potency.

Pure, potent and full strength, every time.

Clinical Results

Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid)
Three independent double-blind clinical trials demonstrate what topical Vitamin C does for your skin:
  • Reduces pigmentation and visibly fades dark spots and uneven tone in 16 weeks²
  • Boosts collagen production in 12 weeks, confirmed by skin biopsy¹
  • Improves hydration and reverses signs of photoageing¹
  • Significantly brightens skin tone in 12 weeks³

Carnosine Peptide
  • Supports skin firmness and elasticity
  • Protects collagen from glycation, damage that ages skin
  • Defends against blue light and environmental stressors
  • Supports the skin barrier and long-term resilience
  • Helps neutralise free radicals and reduce oxidative stress

Vitamin C + Carnosine Vitamin C corrects and brightens. Carnosine defends against future loss. Together, they support new collagen, fade pigmentation, neutralise free radicals and shield skin cells from glycation damage.

+THE FORMULA

Most Vitamin C serums lose potency before they reach your skin. Exposure to light and air triggers oxidation, degrading the formula and stripping it of the brightening, firming and repair benefits you expect.

Perfecting Powder is different. By keeping the actives in their dry, ultra-stable powder form, we preserve them at source. You activate them fresh, the moment you mix them in The Palette. Full-dose potency. Every time. From the very first use to the last.

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), 10% 
High-purity L-ascorbic acid in its purest, most bioavailable form. Stored as a dry powder to prevent oxidation and preserve full efficacy until the moment you mix. Clinically proven to reduce pigmentation and dark spots, stimulate collagen production and visibly improve skin tone and texture.

Carnosine Peptide
A peptide that protects collagen from glycation, the damage that ages skin, while defending against blue light, UV damage and environmental stressors. Supports skin firmness, elasticity and long-term barrier resilience.

Tapioca Starch (Certified Organic)
A finely milled, certified organic starch that gives Perfecting Powder its silk-fine, skin-soft texture. Supports even distribution of the actives on skin and contributes to the soft-focus, veil-light finish.
