Understanding the Performance of Glamour Interference Gold

The Borosilicate Advantage

Glamour Interference Gold is engineered using Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, a glass-based substrate known for exceptional smoothness and transparency. Unlike natural mica, these synthetic platelets feature uniform thickness and a perfectly smooth surface, allowing for unparalleled light reflection. The result is a cleaner, brighter, and more intense sparkle compared to traditional glitter pigments.

Engineering a Star-Like Sparkle

The signature star-like glitter effect is driven by the large particle size (30–150 µm), which maximizes surface area for light reflection and creates distinct points of bright, glittering light. When coated with Titanium Dioxide, these glass flakes produce a brilliant gold interference color that flashes and sparkles as the viewing angle changes, adding striking depth and dimensionality to any formula.

Key Formulation Benefits

  • Superior Sparkle & Brilliance: Borosilicate substrate provides a cleaner, higher-impact sparkle than traditional mica-based glitter pigments.
  • High Transparency & Depth: The glass base allows light to pass through, enabling stunning multi-layer effects over color bases in nail polish or eyeshadow.
  • Smooth, Luxurious Feel: Despite the large particle size, the smooth, uniform platelets deliver a comfortable, non-gritty feel, even in lip applications.
  • Clean & Conscious: Certified Vegan & Cruelty-Free and compliant with Natural (ISO16128) standards for modern cosmetic formulations.
