Technical Profile & Formulation Guide for TC Bright Red
The Science of Interference Color
TC Bright Red is an interference pigment whose color arises from light reflection and refraction rather than absorption. Built on a natural mica substrate coated with a precise layer of titanium dioxide, the powder appears white in the jar yet reflects red wavelengths when applied or viewed at an angle. This optical design produces a dynamic, luminous red effect that adds depth and sophistication across cosmetic applications.
Formulating with a Satin Pearl
The 10–60 µm particle size delivers a refined satin finish—brighter than matte but smoother and less sparkly than a shimmer. This range ensures a silky, non-gritty feel suitable for eyes, lips, face, and nails. It blends cleanly with dry powders and disperses evenly in oils or silicones, enabling stable performance in pressed powders, liquids, creams, and gels.
