Performance & Formulation Insights for SilikMira Xtreme PVOG
Unlocking 4-Way Chromatic Performance
SilikMira Xtreme PVOG achieves its revolutionary four-way color travel through a highly advanced multi-layer coating process. An ultra-thin layer of silica is precisely deposited onto a metallic substrate of aluminum powder and synthetic fluorphlogopite. This structure is engineered to refract light at multiple, distinct angles, creating the dramatic shift from purple to violet, orange, and finally green. The metallic aluminum base provides exceptional opacity and a true metallic luster that elevates the effect beyond standard color-travel pearls.
Key Technical Advantages in Formulation
The 10–60 μm particle size distribution offers the perfect balance of a smooth, luxurious feel with intense sparkle and chromatic effect. Its high-density composition ensures stability in various cosmetic systems, from anhydrous formulas to solvent-based nail lacquers, preventing settling and maintaining homogenous color. This allows formulators to achieve consistent, high-impact results across different product formats.
