Performance & Formulation Insights for Optique Satin Gold
The Science of a Subtle Satin Effect
Optique Satin Gold utilizes a natural mica substrate coated with a precise, thin layer of Titanium Dioxide. This structure creates a subtle interference effect, reflecting a delicate gold color while the base itself remains a soft white. Unlike traditional pearl pigments, its fine 5–25 μm particle size scatters light more softly, resulting in a true satin finish—a smooth, gentle luminosity without strong sparkle or glitter.
Technical Formulation Advantages
The exceptionally fine particle size of Optique Satin Gold ensures a non-gritty, silky texture that is highly desirable in face and lip products. Its natural mica base is compliant with ISO 16128 standards for natural cosmetics, allowing formulators to develop high-performance products that also meet the growing demand for clean and conscious beauty.
