Technical Profile & Formulation Guide: Glamour Flashy Copper

The Science of High-Impact Sparkle

Glamour Flashy Copper utilizes a specialized glass substrate (Aluminum Calcium Sodium Silicate) as its base. This transparent, smooth platelet provides a superior foundation for light reflection compared to natural mica. The large, uniform 50–200 μm particle size maximizes surface area for light to strike, resulting in an exceptionally brilliant, scintillating sparkle effect that stands out from conventional shimmers.

Achieving a True Copper Metallic

A precise coating of Titanium Dioxide and Tin Oxide creates the pearlescent luster, while the addition of Red 40 imparts the vibrant, warm copper hue. This combination creates a true metallic copper effect with intense color saturation and dazzling brilliance, avoiding the dullness of some conventional pigments. The result is a clean, bright, and intensely sparkling finish perfect for high-end cosmetic lines.
