Zhēn Mineral Illuminator Concealer


Mineral Illuminator Concealer
  • Photo Reflective pigments minimize skin imperfections
  • Available in two shades light or medium


Jamilla's take: Zhēn Mineral Illuminator Concealer is a convenient, pen-applicator product, in shades that are more flattering to Asian skin-tones than many European pen-applicator concealers.



Colours available




zhēn beauty Blush


Powder Blush
  • Zhēn's sheer triple milled powder blush brushes on for natural radiant color in a beautiful matte finish, whatever effect you are looking for from a natural flush, to a healthy glow or a subtle shadow to the cheeks
  • Dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, and not tested on animals

Wind Powder Blush
  • Wind Power Blush adds a natural flush and healthy glow to your cheeks

Jamilla's take: You can be confident that Zhēn blushers will complement your Asian skintone; I know that many times I've purchased blushers that are too blue, too pink, or too dark, which not flatter my complexion--Zhēn helps you to avoid mistakes in choosing a flattering blush colour!



Colours available




zhēn beauty Dual Active Foundation

Dual Active Foundation Powder
  • A velvety formula that may be used wet or dry for a flawless matte finish. Apply with a powder brush for a lighter finish, and for touch-ups. For a sheer, dewy application, moisten the Dual Powder sponge and apply

  • May also be used as powder with any other foundation formula for heavier coverage

  • Dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic. Mineral Oil Free. Not tested on animals.







Jamilla's take: Zhēn Dual Active Foundation is a powder foundation that can be applied wet or dry, and is mineral oil free, in Asian skin-tone correct shades.


Colours available




zhēn beauty Light Diffusing Foundation



Light Diffusing Foundation with SPF8 protection
  • Hide skin imperfections with this multi-purpose formula that smoothes tiny lines and enlarged pores with specially formulated coated pigment spheres which floats above the skin's surface creating a cushion between skin imperfections and the foundation. Special micro pigments smooth imperfections and deflect light away from fine lines and wrinkles, while Anti-Oxidants protect and shield the skin
  • Recommended for people with normal to dry and/or more mature and aging skin that needs a little moisture
  • SPF8 Protection from UVA and UVB rays
  • This foundation is also enriched with Vitamin E and soy protein, and will not deepen lines or blemishes like some other foundation brands
  • Dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic
  • Mineral oil free
  • No animal testing, Made in USA

Jamilla's take: I first used Zhēn foundations when it was nearly impossible to get flattering, yellow-based foundations for Asian skin. Zhēn foundations are still the only cosmetic line in the U.S. that has shades that are especially formulated for Asian skintones that are optically flattering, mineral oil free and non-comedogenic. I use Bamboo, and I'm an NC25.
