Formulation & Performance of SilikMira Sleek GTV

The Science of a Silky Color Shift

SilikMira Sleek GTV creates its dramatic green-to-violet color travel effect through a sophisticated structure. Ultra-smooth, fine silica particles act as a base for layers of Calcium Sodium Borosilicate and Titanium Dioxide. This composition generates a highly reflective surface that refracts light at different angles, producing an intense green-turquoise-violet shift. The spherical nature of the silica contributes to the pigment's exceptionally smooth feel and excellent slip.

Advantages in Cosmetic Formulating

The unique combination of substrates in SilikMira Sleek GTV offers formulators a distinct advantage. Its fine particle size (10-60 μm) provides excellent coverage without sacrificing a smooth, luxurious texture. This makes it highly versatile, capable of creating both bold, opaque effects in eyeshadows and ethereal, shimmering layers in lip toppers and highlighters.

With strong stability and easy dispersion, this pigment integrates seamlessly into both anhydrous and emulsion-based systems, supporting a wide range of product formats from pressed powders to gels and solvent-based nail lacquers.
