A formula that not only looks good but works to improve your skin over time, this baked powder feels airy and light but packs a mighty, skin-smoothing punch. Super-soft and sheer, this compact uses skin care actives to inhibit shine but encourage glow. Making cakey, matte, crease-ridden bases a thing of the past, bamboo stem extract reduces excess oil and shine, passionfruit leaf extracts hydrate and smooth, and Chinese peony detoxifies and minimises the look of pores. Working to sweep away fine lines and uneven texture too, this innovative formula cares for skin but doesnt compromise on coverage or performance ensuring your look is locked in place without oxidising or changing colour throughout the day. Never chalky, dry or uncomfortable, the texture feels weightless on skin ensuring skin looks diffused, blurred and healthy without the mess or stress of a loose powder.

The Kosas Cloud Set Baked Setting & Smoothing Powder helps to sweep away shine, minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines, and set makeup without changing the color or adding coverage. The caveat is that it is not designed to provide a glow, but rather to control shine. It is a clean, vegan, talc-free powder baked with skincare actives.
