Flash Bright Gold Sparkle Mica

Mineral Powder Pigments such as oxides, ultramarines and micas are cosmetic-grade. These pigments are mined from the earth (inorganic), processed and filtered to remove harmful impurities such as lead or mercury. 

Mica is a fine mineral powder that can be used to reflect light and create a pearlescent effect on the skin. This product is commonly combined with titanium dioxide or zinc oxides to be used in mineral makeup or cosmetics. When used in cosmetics, mica offers a lightweight, long-lasting effect on skin without feeling too cakey or heavy. Our micas are approved for use in soap, mineral cosmetics and cosmetic bases.

Flash Bright Gold Mica is composed of ferric oxide and mica flakes coated with titanium dioxide.

Compared with copper-gold powder, it is more transparent, has a glossy lustre and bears a third dimension effect. More interestingly they can be mixed with each other achieve the special golden effect by accurate controlled blending.

Recommended usage:

• Using scales is recommended for larger batches.

• Please do small test batches as some of the colours are unstable in cold process soap.

• We recommend dispersing the powders into a small amount of your base first, then add to the remaining product and stir well.

• It is a good idea to wear a mask, goggles/glasses and protective clothing/apron as working with volatile powders is messy. Make sure you work in a well-ventilated area.
