Why Briony Loves the Essentials Stack

As a businesswoman, mother, and passionate advocate for ethical beauty, Briony understands how important time, quality, and trust are when it comes to what we put on our skin. 

Refillable + Eco-Friendly Design

The Essentials Stack is designed with our signature magnetic, biodegradable packaging system. Each layer clicks together securely, allowing you to swap shades or replace empties easily.

Vegan, Cruelty-Free, and Fragrance-Free

Our mineral makeup is 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and fragrance-free, making it suitable for sensitive, acne-prone, and mature skin. You won’t find any fillers, talc, bismuth, or synthetic fragrances—just pure, high-performing minerals you can trust.

Multi-Use, Skin-Loving Formulas

Each product in the Essentials Stack is crafted to be as nourishing as it is flattering. Think hydrating lipsticks fortified with jojoba oil and vitamin E, buttery mineral blushes that blend like a dream, and crease-resistant eyeshadows that won’t irritate your eyes or fade throughout the day.

These aren’t just makeup products; they’re skincare-infused staples that support your skin barrier while enhancing your natural beauty.

One Stack, Endless Possibilities

Whether you’re going for a no-makeup makeup look or dressing up for dinner, the Essentials Stack helps you create your perfect style effortlessly. Plus, its compact, travel-friendly size means you can carry your entire routine without the bulk. Want to experiment? You can mix and match different mineral blush, eyeshadow, and lipstick shades by buying additional refills. The stack’s magnetic base makes it simple to customise your set to match your style, mood, or season.

Why Mineral Makeup Matters

Unlike conventional makeup, mineral makeup is free from harsh chemicals, preservatives, and fillers that can irritate the skin or clog pores. Instead, it relies on finely milled, earth-derived minerals to provide natural coverage, vibrant colour, and breathable wear. For sensitive, ageing, or reactive skin types, switching to mineral eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick can reduce inflammation, breakouts, and dryness, making it a smart (and beautiful) choice for long-term skin health.

Shop Mineral Makeup That Does More

At Adorn, we’re redefining minimalist beauty with cleaner ingredients, smarter packaging, and products that genuinely work. The Essentials Mineral Makeup Stack proves that simplicity can be powerful. So, if you're ready to adopt a more intentional, skin-first beauty routine, start with the Essentials.
