Refill system

What you refill – and what you save

Four products, four refills. Pick one and see how the refill works.

Your topic: Compact powder

Push out the empty cake, insert the new refill, done. The bamboo case lasts for years – in the same shade or a new one.

Your topic: Loose powder

Unscrew the sifter, pour in the refill, put the sieve back on. Five depths from N100 to N500 – no pale cast on dark skin.

Matching from our collection:

Loose powder refill €30 instead of €40 – 5 depths

Your topic: Eyeshadow

Each pan sits magnetically in the palette. Trend colour in, colour you no longer wear out – instead of a new palette.

Guide

Three steps towards less cosmetic waste

  1. 1

    Buy cases once

    Buy the bamboo case, sifter or palette once. After that only order refills – cheaper and without new packaging.

  2. 2

    Tools instead of disposables

    A few good brushes instead of many cheap ones. Sponges are hygienically finished after weeks – brushes last for years.

  3. 3

    Use up, then reorder

    Foundation lasts around six months of daily use. Empty refills go into household waste, the bamboo case stays.

Frequently asked questions

Sustainable make-up

Compact powder, loose powder and eyeshadow have their own refills. Blush comes in the same bamboo case as the compact powder. The DUO and PRO palettes take single eyeshadow pans.

Compact powder: push out the old cake, insert the new one. Loose powder: unscrew the sifter and pour in. Eyeshadow: pans sit magnetically and can be swapped with a fingernail.

No, and we do not call it that. Our formulas are professional, dermatologically tested formulations for coverage and wear. What is sustainable is the packaging, the refill system and the longevity.

The bamboo packaging was developed over two years specifically for the brand; the design is protected at the World Intellectual Property Organization. Bamboo grows up to one metre a day and needs no pesticides.

Empty powder pans and refill inserts go into household waste, paper packaging into paper recycling. You keep the bamboo case.
