Understanding the Performance of GlassMira RVB86
The Science of Borosilicate-Based Color Travel
GlassMira RVB86 is engineered using a Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate (glass) substrate. Unlike natural mica, these synthetic platelets are exceptionally smooth and transparent, allowing for cleaner, brighter, and more intense color travel.
A precise coating of Titanium Dioxide and Tin Oxide refracts light to create the dramatic red–violet–blue chromatic shift, resulting in a purer and more vibrant effect with standout reflectivity.
Leveraging Large Particle Size for Maximum Impact
With a particle size range of 50–200 μm, this pigment is designed to deliver a distinct and highly visible chunky sparkle—different from finer pearlescent pigments that yield a subtle shimmer. The large, smooth glass flakes maximize light reflection for a bold, glitter-like aesthetic.
Due to the particle size, GlassMira RVB86 performs best in suspension or higher-viscosity systems (e.g., gels, thick glosses, lacquers, anhydrous balms) to maintain even distribution and minimize settling while preserving clarity and brilliance.
Key Formulation Benefits
- Intense Color Travel: Achieves a dramatic, clean shift from red to violet to blue for a truly eye-catching effect.
- Superior Sparkle & Luster: Large, smooth borosilicate flakes deliver exceptional reflectivity for a dazzling, glitter-like sparkle.
- High-Purity Substrate: Synthetic glass base ensures high transparency and batch-to-batch consistency.
- Versatile Application: Ideal for nail polish, high-viscosity lip gloss, eyeshadow toppers, and body shimmers where maximum visual impact is desired.
