Technical Profile & Formulation Guide for NovaGlow Ice VRO

Ultra-Chunky Borosilicate Flakes with Warm Color Travel

NovaGlow Ice VRO is built on a high-clarity calcium aluminum borosilicate and silica system engineered for maximum sparkle. Oversized flakes (100–5000 μm) produce a bold, glitter-like texture that instantly reads editorial, festival, or special-occasion on the skin. On application, the effect shifts dramatically from vibrant hot pink through fiery orange into warm, reflective gold, delivering a high-impact, prismatic finish.

The transparent substrate allows underlying bases and colors to remain visible, so NovaGlow Ice VRO can be layered over creams, liquids, or powders without dulling the shade underneath. Titanium dioxide and tin oxides boost reflectivity and intensity, amplifying the warm color travel while maintaining a clean, glassy sparkle profile.

Formulation Considerations for Oversized Particles

With a very large particle size range, NovaGlow Ice VRO performs best in systems that can physically anchor or suspend chunky flakes. High-viscosity gels, film-former rich eye toppers, and hybrid balm or putty textures help lock the pigment in place and control fallout. In pressed formats, a robust binder system is recommended to maintain pan integrity and minimize lift.

For liquids and gels, pair this pigment with rheology modifiers, elastomeric gels, or polymeric film-formers to stabilize suspension and create an even distribution of sparkle. In lip and face products, use conservative pigment loadings to deliver dramatic sparkle while maintaining a comfortable feel. As always, formulators should confirm suitability and compliance for their specific end use and regional regulations.
