Multitasking powder booster to mix with oils and balms

This delightfully breathable, flexible sun protective formula combines a light, non-pore-clogging, luxuriously soft feel, a stylish feminine scent, and safe, reliable protection. While most sunscreens feel heavy and oily on the skin, Farizad’s Veil’s powder format allows you to customize your sun protection by using your own favorite facial oil or serum as the base, providing effective protection without any unwanted added ingredients.

The effectiveness comes from uncoated zinc oxide, which is the safest, healthiest, most reliable nontoxic sun shield available today. Zinc oxide offers full-spectrum UV protection, is safe to use around the eyes, and is biodegradable and safe for coral reefs and other marine life. Because zinc oxide is a physical sun reflector, it works immediately upon application, and even makes the skin feel cooler in the hot sun. Zinc oxide also has anti-acne and anti-inflammatory properties, and because it gives a matte finish, you may be able to skip foundation when using Farizad's Veil.

The formula also includes pure powdered aloe leaves, which act like an all-day facial mask to moisturize, cool, and soothe the skin and prevent and correct skin damage. And Moroccan rose, Indian champaca flower, geranium leaves from Madagascar, and frankincense combine to provide a beautiful and refined scent. The essential oils and absolutes used in Farizad’s Veil are all artisan-distilled, small-batch, therapeutic-grade, and organic or responsibly wildcrafted, and the powder is certified cruelty free, vegan, cold process, all natural, handcrafted, and fair trade.

Skincare Benefits:

Acts as an effective sun shield with a wonderfully light, breathable feel and a sophisticated natural scent.
The active ingredient—minimally processed, non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide—is the healthiest, safest, most reliable sun protection ingredient available, and offers natural protection against the full spectrum of the sun’s harmful UV rays.
Mixing the powder formula into your favorite face oil or oil-based serum allows you to customize your level of sun protection, without adding any undesirable, toxic, or pore-clogging ingredients to your daily facial-care routine.
Pure, organic aloe soothes the skin and reduces redness, while the zinc oxide conceals imperfections and has a mattifying effect. The formula also includes flowers and herbs that heal and reduce acne and lighten and prevent hyperpigmentation.
Farizad’s Veil can be used all year long, not only to shield from the sun, but also to soothe skin irritations, reduce redness, speed healing of acne breakouts, and decrease hyperpigmentation.

Skin Type Recommendations: For all skin types, including acne-prone and sensitive.

Color and Texture: The soft white powder disperses in oils into a light, milky-looking sun shield lotion. The color of the mixed lotion will vary depending on the color of the carrier oil.

Scent: Feminine yet assertive, the intoxicating floral scent combines Moroccan rose, rare pink Indian champaca flower, rose geranium, Madagascar geranium leaves, and a delicate frankincense from Oman. If you prefer an unscented sunscreen, leave the jar open for a few days, lightly covered with fabric or a paper towel to protect it from dust, to allow the scent to dissipate.

Size: 10.5 g / 0.37 oz

Application+

Measure out a single-use amount of the powder (1/32 to 1/16 teaspoon) into a ceramic bowl and add from several drops to half a dropper of your favorite daytime face oil, such as Earthwise Beauty’s Ruby Face Oil. Mix with your fingertips to create a thin, smooth lotion. Apply onto the skin, rubbing in gently to minimize the whitening effect and to distribute evenly. Add extra drops of your oil directly onto your face if needed to achieve an even distribution. Depending on the quantity used, our testing shows that Farizad’s Veil provides sun protection roughly equal to a sunscreen with an SPF of 20 to 40 (the more powder used, the higher the sun protection).

For a light-feel, “second-skin” type of sun-ray protector, mix Farizad’s Veil with a light, moisturizing face oil or oil-based serum. This sunscreen will work well mixed with any of Earthwise Beauty’s facial oils and with Ferns and Moss Face Serum. It should work with other brands’ moisturizers if they contain oils, but not with gels or gel-creams. Test a few different addition options and quantities to determine what works best for you. You may even mix Farizad’s Veil with your liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer. For a simple, noncomedogenic, and very pleasing result, try mixing with pure organic cold-press unrefined jojoba or argan oil.

Avoid inhaling the powder.
