Performance & Formulation Insights for Sachet Interference Violet
The Science of High-Chroma Violet Sparkle
Sachet Interference Violet utilizes a large synthetic fluorphlogopite platelet (30–150 µm) as its base. This ultra-smooth, high-purity substrate is coated with a precise layer of titanium dioxide. When light strikes the pigment, it reflects and refracts through these layers, creating a brilliant interference effect that appears as a vibrant, sparkling violet. Unlike finer pearl pigments that create a satin or shimmer finish, the larger particle size here is engineered to deliver a high-impact, glitter-like sparkle with exceptional brightness.
Advanced Formulation with Synthetic Mica
The synthetic mica base offers several advantages over natural mica. Its high purity ensures a brighter, cleaner color effect and excellent batch-to-batch consistency. When formulating with this large particle pigment, especially in liquid systems like nail lacquers or body gels, use suspending agents (e.g., hectorite, bentonite, silica) to keep particles evenly distributed and prevent settling. In pressed powders, its smooth platelet structure contributes to good adhesion and a surprisingly creamy feel for a sparkling pigment.
