Makeup Refills

Makeup refills are designed to replace the product inside a reusable compact, case or component, making it easier to repurchase favourite shades without buying the full package again. Depending on the brand, this can include refill pans, cartridges or other replacement formats.

At Vault, we curate refillable makeup across complexion, cheek and colour categories from brands that have built reuse into the product design. Once you have the original component, simply choose the compatible refill when it is time to replenish or switch shades.

Refills are especially useful for the products you reach for regularly. They let you keep the packaging you already own, replace only what is finished and make repeat purchases feel a little more considered.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are makeup refills?

Makeup refills are replacement pans, cartridges or inner components designed to fit into a reusable compact, case or other makeup component.

Do I need the original packaging before buying a makeup refill?

Usually, yes. Most makeup refills are designed to fit a specific reusable case or compact, so you will need the corresponding original component first.

Are makeup refills the same formula as the original product?

In most cases, yes. The refill contains the formula designed for the corresponding reusable product, although you should always check the individual listing for exact details.

Can I use a refill to change shades?

Often, yes. If the reusable component is compatible with multiple shades, you may be able to replace a finished product with a different colour. Check the product page for compatibility.
