Performance & Formulation Insights for SDI Duo Blue

Silver-Based Blue Duo Effect

SDI Duo Blue is a silver-based effect pigment on a calcium sodium borosilicate (glass) substrate. Aluminum and silver layered over the transparent glass create a luminous blue duo effect that shifts between cool blue and violet depending on viewing angle.

Key Technical Advantages in Formulation

With a broad particle range of roughly 1–100 microns, it delivers a high-impact metallic sparkle well suited to bold face and nail effects.

The borosilicate base provides exceptional clarity and reflectivity, giving the silver-blue duo effect its bright, mirror-like brilliance.

Key Formulation Benefits

  • Blue duo effect: a silver-driven shift between blue and violet.
  • High-impact sparkle: bright, reflective metallic brilliance.
  • For face & nail: ideal for bold complexion accents and nail systems.
  • Clean compliance profile: ferro-free, carmine-free, and suitable for vegan formulations.
