Performance & Formulation Insights for Mystic Periwinkle

The Science of a Soft Satin Finish

Mystic Periwinkle achieves its signature periwinkle hue and soft satin luster through the precise coating of Titanium Dioxide and Ferric Ferrocyanide on a natural mica substrate. The controlled 10-60 μm particle size is key to its performance, scattering light to create a gentle, low-contrast shimmer rather than a high-impact sparkle. This results in a smooth, elegant finish with excellent coverage.

Formulation Advantages for Modern Cosmetics

The fine particle distribution of Mystic Periwinkle ensures it disperses easily and uniformly in various cosmetic systems, from anhydrous powders to solvent-based nail lacquers. Its natural mica base provides good adhesion and a smooth skin feel, reducing the need for additional texturizing fillers and aligning with trends for cleaner, more streamlined formulations.
