Formulation & Performance of SilikMira Sleek YGB
Engineering Intense Color Travel
SilikMira Sleek YGB achieves its dramatic yellow-green-blue color travel through a multi-layer structure. Ultra-smooth silica and transparent calcium aluminum borosilicate platelets act as the substrate, creating a flawless surface for the deposition of titanium dioxide. This precise layering produces an interference effect that reflects different wavelengths of light at varying angles, delivering a vibrant, directional chromatic shift.
The Advantage of a Silica & Borosilicate Base
The combination of silica and borosilicate provides exceptional smoothness and lubricity, translating to a silky, luxurious skin feel and a homogenous, even laydown of color. This base enhances blendability in pressed powders and supports stable, non-abrasive suspension in liquid and gel systems—offering a cleaner, crisper effect than many standard mica-based pigments.
With a particle size range of 20–100 µm, SilikMira Sleek YGB balances vivid sparkle and strong color travel with excellent coverage and reflective brightness, making it suitable for high-impact cosmetic formats.
