Performance & Formulation Insights for Diamond Superstar Red
Ultra-Bold Chunky Sparkle with Maximum Visual Impact
Diamond Superstar Red pushes the boundaries of cosmetic sparkle with its extra-large 100–700 μm borosilicate glass flakes. Coated with titanium dioxide and tin oxide, these ultra-chunky particles create the most dramatic sparkle in the Diamond series, with ultra-bold red interference color that shifts dynamically with the viewing angle.
The Superstar series represents the pinnacle of statement-level sparkle. Each individual glass flake is a visible jewel that catches and refracts light for an unmistakable, head-turning effect.
Formulation Strategies for Ultra-Large Particles
The Superstar series requires specialized formulation approaches. Use in clear gel or liquid suspension systems with robust rheology modifiers to showcase the individual flakes. In pressed formats, deploy exclusively as a topper or accent to avoid compromising pan integrity.
The smooth borosilicate surface is significantly more comfortable than traditional plastic glitter, making it suitable for face, body, and even lip applications. Its biodegradable glass composition also provides an eco-friendly alternative to microplastic glitter.
