Performance & Formulation Insights for Smokey Vintage Denim Blue

Ultra-Fine Denim Blue Satin with Ferric Ferrocyanide Depth

Smokey Vintage Denim Blue achieves its distinctive denim-inspired blue through ferric ferrocyanide (Prussian Blue) combined with titanium dioxide on a synthetic fluorphlogopite substrate. The exceptionally fine 1–10 μm particle size creates an ultra-smooth, almost creamy texture that delivers intense blue saturation with a sophisticated satin-matte finish. This fine particle size also enables superior skin adhesion and a weightless feel on application.

Formulation Considerations

The ultra-fine particle size of Smokey Vintage Denim Blue makes it particularly well-suited for pressed eyeshadow formulations where a smooth, blendable texture is essential. The ferric ferrocyanide colorant provides excellent lightfastness and stability in cosmetic matrices. Note that this pigment is not recommended for lip applications due to its colorant composition. Its compact particle distribution allows for high-density pressing with minimal binder requirements.
