Mineral Silk Foundation

Mineral Silk is a true powder foundation. Easy to use, with a light, natural coverage that suits those who do not wish to look overly ‘made-up’ or whom prefer a natural ‘no makeup’ look. What makes it original is its ease of use. Based on rice powder, it has an ultra-fine, soft and aeriated texture that offers a light, velevety finish to skin. The foundation powder is especially recommended for mature skin. 
 
Use shade 500 as an invisible finishing powder to set makeup, and to create a radiant and natural complexion. It sets foundation, mattifies and unifies your complexion without shine, blurring imperfections, making your makeup last longer. Its neutral colour blends perfectly with skin and adapts to all skin tones. 
Applied on top of moisturiser or primer such as Zao’s Prim’Soft or Prim’Light, it is non-comedogenic and suitable for all skin types. This matt foundation powder is applied with a kabuki brush and worked into skin to create a flawless, natural finish. It is talc-free, as are all our powders.
 
Please note that shades 509 and 510 are being discontinued, and as such refills have sold out. The bamboo version of these references is therefore discounted. 
 
Packaged in a unique, varnished bamboo case, Zao makeup is both a beautiful gift and an item to treasure. Existing customers, please note that we are phasing out our bamboo pouches in which our products were packaged, in order to further reduce waste. These will be phased out as current stocks deplete, but they are now available here for purchase separately for gifting purposes.
 
Coverage: Light
 
Ingredients Highlight:
Organic corn starch: The organic corn starch is a vegetable support allowing a better adhesion of the powder on skin, and thus longer-lasting makeup.
 
Bamboo powder: It is a white substance extracted from the joints of bamboo. Thanks to its high silica content, it remineralises, hydrates and participates in the regeneration of your skin while reducing the shine of combination and oily skin.
