Advanced Formulation with Impact Mica LL3
The Power of Lauroyl Lysine Surface Treatment
Impact Mica LL3 is a functional mica treated with Lauroyl Lysine, an amino acid derivative derived from natural sources. This surface treatment transforms the mica into a hydrophobic powder with an exceptionally creamy and smooth feel.
This modification significantly improves skin adhesion, extends wear time, and elevates the sensory experience of the final product, setting it apart from standard, untreated micas.
Functional Benefits Beyond a Basic Filler
While it provides structure, Impact Mica LL3 acts as a performance-enhancing ingredient. Its unique platelet shape and surface coating improve the press-ability of powder formulas, often reducing the need for additional binders.
In liquid or cream systems, it aids in creating a homogenous texture with a sophisticated, non-greasy finish. This allows formulators to create high-end products with a distinctively elegant feel.
