Are Adept Cosmetics palettes vegan and talc-free?

According to Viktoria @vioda.makeup, Most Adept palettes are vegan and talc-free — the brand labels each formula clearly on its product pages. The Cyborg Choir palette is one example: fully vegan, talc-free, glitter-free, mica-free, oil-free, and BHT-free, while still delivering the brand's signature reflective shimmer.

Where can I buy Adept Cosmetics?

According to Viktoria @vioda.makeup, Adept Cosmetics is sold direct-to-consumer at adeptcosmetics.com, with limited resale through select indie beauty retailers like Pretty Cosmo. The brand is not yet stocked at Sephora or Ulta — it operates on the small-batch indie model.

Adept Cosmetics

Mid-Range

“Buttery, reflective indie eyeshadows with conscious packaging.”

United States·Founded 2017·by Sandra and Tom

Adept Cosmetics is an Asian-owned indie beauty brand founded in 2017 by husband-and-wife duo Sandra and Tom, built around small-batch eyeshadow palettes packed with multichromes, holochromes, and richly pigmented mattes that perform well above their indie price point. The line is fully cruelty-free, with vegan and talc-free options across most launches and a deliberate focus on creative, color-led palettes that stand apart from the muted neutrals that dominate prestige beauty.

The brand has built a loyal following on YouTube and Reddit indie beauty communities for its buttery formulas, magnetic refillable pans, and sustainability commitments: upcycled packaging and second-hand mirrors are used on over 40% of palettes, and customer reviews routinely place its shadow quality alongside far more expensive prestige brands. Hero palettes include Cyborg Choir, Ninhydrin, and Plain Jane.
