Description

Flamenco® Super Pearl is a white effect-enhancing pigment of titanium dioxide-coated mica platelets. It is used to create lustrous or opalescent effects in all types of cosmetics and personal products. This grade offers excellent transparency, which can help reduce the milky look that occurs with pearlescent effects in medium-dark and deep tones. Its brilliance allows formulators to use less pigment without compromising end product luster.

Usage

Face care, Body care, Oral hygiene, Make-up, Face and body hygiene, Hair care, Sun care

Formulation Guide
  • Flamenco pigments are chemically stable under conditions normally encountered in cosmetic and personal care formulation products and use.
  • However, all grades should be tested in potential formulations before commercialization in order to determine if performance will be acceptable.
  • Since regulations change over time, we recommend that appropriate use of each colorant be confirmed against each region’s current cosmetic
    regulations.
