Performance & Formulation Insights for Diamond Light Blue
Vivid Blue Sparkle from Multi-Layer Coating on Borosilicate
Diamond Light Blue creates its vivid light blue effect through a precise multi-layer coating of titanium dioxide, tin oxide, and ferric ferrocyanide on a borosilicate glass substrate. The 80–200 μm particles deliver bold, chunky blue sparkle with exceptional color intensity.
Ferric ferrocyanide (CI 77510) provides the vivid blue coloration, amplified by the TiO2 underlayer for maximum brightness. The borosilicate glass base ensures superior clarity compared to mica-based alternatives.
Formulation Advantages
The large particle size creates bold, statement-level sparkle ideal as a topper or accent shade. The chemically stable borosilicate substrate resists degradation across a wide pH range.
In pressed formats, use suitable binder systems to minimize fallout. In liquid and gel systems, employ suspension agents for even distribution. The glass substrate provides a smooth, comfortable skin feel.
