How To Use A Nighttime Mineral Treatment

flatlay of Embellish Pro-Aging Treatment Powder.

Meet Embellish, your overnight secret to naturally radiant, more even-looking skin, formulated with light-diffusing minerals and skin-loving ingredients that deliver next-day glow. 

Hard to get your head wrapped around a nighttime treatment powder. Right? Am I right? So, let's talk about just that, and see if we can clear up the mystery.

Embellish is for anyone who wants their makeup to do something for their skin. It’s not just about setting or smoothing in the moment, it’s about improving how skin looks over time. The mineral formula helps visually soften texture, blur fine lines, and bring life back to tired or uneven-looking skin without adding weight. Designed as a nighttime treatment, it works while you sleep, but it’s just as smart during the day.

Use it as a lightweight primer to subtly refine and prep bare skin, or sweep it on as a finishing powder to set makeup with a natural, soft-focus finish. It’s one of those rare multitaskers that earns its place on your vanity, less product clutter, more payoff, better-looking skin.

How to Use Embellish Pro-Aging Nighttime Mineral Treatment

Using this powder is easy, especially if you’re already familiar with mineral makeup.

Step-by-Step Application

  1. Dispense a small amount of the powder into the lid of the jar.
  2. Swirl a dedicated brush (we recommend the Powder Buffer Brush) into the powder.
  3. Tap the brush gently on the counter to nestle the minerals into the bristles and reduce excess fallout.
  4. Buff and swirl onto the skin, covering your face, eye area, neck, and throat.
  5. Repeat 2–3 light layers for comfortable, even coverage.

This should be the very last step in your nighttime skincare routine. In fact, you can use this in place of your moisturizer, depending on your skin. Try it and see how it feels. 

I personally, use my Butter Cream Facial Moisturizer and allow my creme to soak in, before I apply my Embellish Powder. (Go put your jammies on in between).

Which brush to use? We recommend our Powder Buffer Brush.
