Technical Profile: Glamour Classic Sky Grey

The Science of Borosilicate Sparkle

Glamour Classic Sky Grey utilizes Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, a synthetic glass substrate, to achieve its intense sparkle. Unlike natural mica, these precisely engineered glass flakes are exceptionally smooth and transparent. This allows for unparalleled light reflection, creating a brighter, cleaner, and more dramatic glistening effect with a true diamond-like luster that minimizes the background haze often associated with other substrates.

Formulation Benefits of a Larger Particle Size

The 20–100 μm particle size range is specifically designed to maximize sparkle and visual impact, making it a premier choice for bold, eye-catching cosmetics. The borosilicate base supports excellent dispersion, suspension, and stability across various systems—from anhydrous and gel formats to solvent-based nail lacquers—delivering consistently dazzling results with a smooth application feel.

Key Formulation Benefits

  • Intense Glistening Effect: Borosilicate glass substrate provides exceptional brilliance and a multi-faceted, diamond-like sparkle.
  • Superior Transparency & Purity: Delivers a cleaner, brighter sparkle with less background haze compared to natural mica-based pigments.
  • Smooth Application Feel: Despite the larger particle size, the smooth surface of the glass flakes creates a comfortable, non-gritty texture.
  • Broad Application Versatility: Ideal for standout effects in eyeshadows, nail polish, lip gloss, and body shimmer products.
