Technical Profile & Formulation Benefits of Biluna Satin UVS

The Science of a Soft-Focus Satin Finish

Biluna Satin UVS is composed of pure Bismuth Oxychloride (BiOCl), a specialty pigment with a unique crystalline platelet structure. Unlike the flat platelets of mica, BiOCl layers scatter and diffuse light, producing a natural soft-focus effect that visibly blurs fine lines and imperfections. The result is a flawless, airbrushed appearance with a refined, satin glow—without glitter or overt sparkle.

Superior Performance in Pressed & Liquid Systems

Engineered for premium performance, Biluna Satin UVS delivers excellent binding and compressibility in pressed powders, creating creamy textures with improved payoff and minimal fallout. In liquid and anhydrous systems—such as foundations, concealers, and lipsticks—it disperses uniformly, enhancing formula stability and providing luxurious slip without adding unwanted opacity.

With a fine particle size of 5–10 µm, it imparts a smooth, lightweight feel and consistent soft-focus coverage across complexion, eye, and lip applications.
