Performance & Formulation Insights for Fiesta Sparkle White
The Science of Superior Sparkle
Fiesta Sparkle White achieves its intense, diamond-like sparkle through the combination of a large particle size (50-250 µm) and a high-purity synthetic fluorphlogopite substrate. Unlike natural mica, synthetic mica is exceptionally smooth and transparent, creating a cleaner, brighter, and more reflective canvas for the titanium dioxide coating. This results in a brilliant flash and minimizes any underlying hazy or milky appearance.
Formulation Advantages of Synthetic Mica
The use of synthetic mica provides significant benefits for formulators. Its purity ensures lot-to-lot consistency and extremely low levels of heavy metals, simplifying regulatory compliance. The large, smooth platelet structure offers a surprisingly comfortable skin feel for a sparkle pigment and demonstrates excellent suspension properties in liquids and gels, preventing settling and ensuring even distribution of the effect.
