AKT Longform - Born on Stage Desktop

Deodorant, born on stage.

AKT was founded in 2015 by West End performers Ed Currie and Andy Coxon, who developed the brand after struggling to find a deodorant that could survive eight physically demanding shows a week. Three years of formulation went into creating a natural alternative that actually works.

ALL YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Are Quince makeup products suitable for sensitive skin?

Quince makeup is formulated without common irritants — parabens, synthetic fragrances, phthalates, and sulfates. Fragrance is the most common cosmetic sensitizer, and fragrance-free formulations significantly reduce the risk of contact dermatitis and skin irritation, especially around the eyes and lips. For shoppers with clinically diagnosed sensitivities or allergies, review the full ingredient panel on each product page before purchasing — sensitivities vary and individual ingredients should be checked against known triggers.

Are the makeup products clean or natural?

Many products use clean formulation principles. Check individual product pages for full ingredient lists.

Is the makeup cruelty-free?

Check individual product pages for cruelty-free and certification information.

Can makeup be returned?

Makeup ships free with a 365-day return window. Opened products may have different return conditions — check the return policy.

How do I find the right foundation or concealer shade for my skin tone?

The most reliable method: swatch 2–3 closest shades on your jawline (not the back of your hand — the hand is rarely the same tone as the face) in natural light. The correct shade disappears into skin rather than sitting visibly lighter or darker. For online purchases, use your current foundation shade number as a reference point if you know it. When uncertain between two shades, the lighter one is typically more versatile — it can be warmed with bronzer, while a shade too dark is harder to correct. Quince product pages include undertone guidance (cool, neutral, warm) to narrow the selection.

How do I build a minimal makeup routine with maximum effect?

A four-product minimal routine that covers most skin concerns: (1) tinted moisturizer or light foundation — evens tone without full-coverage weight; (2) concealer — targeted coverage under eyes and on blemishes only; (3) one eye-defining product (mascara or a neutral brow pencil) — the single highest-impact eye product for most faces; (4) a lip product — balm with color for low-effort polish, or a lip stain for lasting wear. Everything else is additive. For those new to makeup, starting with these four and learning one at a time builds skill and prevents the common mistake of heavy layering that reduces rather than improves the overall look.

What complementary products should I use with my makeup?

Pair makeup with a quality primer to create a smooth base and extend wear time. Use setting spray to lock in your look throughout the day. Add makeup brushes and sponges for precise, blended application. Invest in makeup remover and skincare products to keep your skin healthy between applications.
