Everything you need to know about Radiance Veil.
Product
A balm that cares for your skin and gives it a soft, light-catching finish at the same time. Radiance Veil pairs New Zealand grass-fed tallow and natural-origin oils, which condition and soften the skin, with ultra-fine minerals that catch and diffuse light. Glowy, not glittery. Skincare and finish, in equal measure.
Most illuminating products are made for the finish alone. Radiance Veil was made for the finish and for the skin beneath it. A blend of New Zealand grass-fed tallow and a select handful of beautiful natural-origin oils and ingredients conditions and softens the skin, ultra-fine minerals add subtle dimension, and the balm melts in rather than sitting on top. You shouldn't have to choose between how your skin looks and how it feels.
Both. It's a nourishing balm, made with a considered blend of skin-loving ingredients, including New Zealand grass-fed tallow, jojoba, camellia seed oil and antioxidant vitamin E, each playing its part. It's finished with a refined cosmetic sheen. Wear it alone on bare skin, or as the final step in your routine.
Application
Face and body. Anywhere the light falls: cheekbones, collarbones, shoulders, décolletage, arms and legs. For the body, apply once you're dressed, to skin that's left uncovered.
Yes. Press a little onto the high points of the face, such as the cheekbones, brow bones and Cupid's bow, where light naturally catches. The balm melts into the skin for a soft, luminous finish.
Yes. A light touch on the Cupid's bow adds softness and a natural sheen. Not recommended to use as a lip balm or lip product.
Less than you think. Begin with a tiny amount and build gradually to achieve your desired level of radiance.
Yes. On the face, press it onto the high points as a finishing touch, over bare skin, skincare or makeup. It sits well with skincare, sunscreen and complexion products. For the most dimension, make it the last step.
Yes. Radiance Veil is designed for everyday use, with no exfoliating acids or ingredients that require scheduled use. Apply daily, or as desired, for added nourishment and luminosity wherever it lands.
Texture + Finish
Radiance Veil was formulated to avoid the slick, greasy feel often associated with traditional oils. As a nourishing balm, it leaves a subtle, conditioning veil on the skin, but the finish feels soft and silk-like rather than oily or heavy.
No. Radiance Veil is finished with a refined vanilla profile and a soft tulip flower note that gently soften tallow's natural scent. It's warm and understated, not sugary, and it won't compete with your perfume.
Radiance Veil contains finely milled cosmetic-grade mica to create its signature radiance. A subtle shimmer is visible in certain lighting, but it remains refined and understated — never glittery or overt. The overall effect is dimensional, luminous skin rather than obvious sparkle.
Yes. Because it's a balm that melts into the skin rather than a powder that sits on top, the finish complements skin as it changes and doesn't settle into texture. Apply a little to the high points and build slowly.
Not exactly — Radiance Veil is designed to complement, rather than mask, the skin beneath. Its sheer, warm-toned finish blends seamlessly across a wide range of skin tones, allowing the radiance to take on subtle differences depending on the complexion. The result is dimensional, light-responsive skin that remains distinctly your own.
Radiance Veil is designed to move with the light. In direct sunlight, it creates a beautifully radiant complexion with a light-responsive glow. In softer daylight, the finish appears luminous, dimensional and editorial. By evening, it takes on a richer radiance with an almost incandescent quality. Across every light, the finish remains refined — never harsh or metallic.
It can. Radiance Veil carries light-reflective bronze, champagne, and gold mica throughout the formula, so it may transfer onto fabric that sits closely against the skin or rubs across it. For the best result, apply once you're dressed, to the skin left exposed. Any transfer can come out in the wash.
Ingredients
Its fatty acids (oleic, palmitic and stearic) closely resemble those in the skin's own surface lipids, and it naturally contains vitamins A, D, E and K. It conditions deeply, supports moisture retention and leaves skin soft and supple. It works alongside jojoba, camellia seed oil and vitamin E, each bringing its own nourishing qualities to the blend.
Ingredients that come wholly or partly from animal, plant or mineral sources. Radiance Veil is built around New Zealand grass-fed tallow, botanical oils, beeswax, vitamin E and mineral mica. A few ingredients are there to give the balm its texture and keep it stable, and every one is listed openly in the full ingredient list (The Formula tab on the product page).
Every ingredient has a reason to be there, whether for nourishment, skin feel, stability or the finish. We included only what the formula needed. Nothing added for complexity. Nothing included simply to make a claim.
Everyone's skin is different. Radiance Veil has a short ingredient list, shown in full on the product page. It contains sweet almond oil (tree nut-derived) and a vanilla note. If your skin is sensitive or you have known allergies, check the full list and patch test on your inner arm 24 hours before first use. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Radiance Veil is a rich, nourishing balm, and every skin responds differently. If your skin is prone to congestion, start with the body or the high points of the face and see how your skin responds before wearing it more widely.
No. Radiance Veil is made with New Zealand grass-fed tallow and beeswax, so it isn't vegan.

General
In New Zealand. It's home, and it was always going to be made here. Radiance Veil is formulated, made and filled in New Zealand, so we can stay close to every part of the process, from the farms our tallow comes from to the moment each jar is filled.
Keep it somewhere cool and out of direct sun. Radiance Veil contains ingredients that soften with heat and melt at body temperature, so it may soften in warm weather. That's natural. Place it somewhere cool and it will firm again. Best used within 18 months of opening.
Each jar holds 50g, and a little goes a long way. Used only as a highlighter, one jar can last around 1–2 years. With regular full-body use, expect around 2–3 months.
