Performance & Formulation Insights for Biluna Silk UVS
The Science of a Satin Soft-Focus Effect
Biluna Silk UVS leverages the unique crystalline platelet structure of Bismuth Oxychloride (BiOCl) to create its signature satin finish. Unlike the flat, highly reflective surfaces of some pearlescent pigments, BiOCl crystals are arranged in stacked layers that scatter and diffuse light. This interaction produces a soft, luminous glow that optically blurs fine lines and imperfections, delivering the coveted soft-focus effect for complexion-forward formulas.
Superior Formulation & Binding Properties
Beyond visual impact, Biluna Silk UVS is a high-performance functional ingredient. Its distinct particle shape and density contribute to excellent compressibility and binding in pressed powder systems, often reducing the need for auxiliary binders. The result is a creamy, durable powder with superior skin adhesion and payoff. In liquid and anhydrous systems, it imparts an exceptionally smooth, silky texture that elevates sensoriality and overall product quality.
