Bath & Body

Glitter & Pearl for Bath Bombs: Skin-Safe Grades

Bath products contact skin directly, so we supply cosmetic-grade glitter and cosmetics-grade pearlescent pigment for bath bombs, bath salts, body oils and shower gels, produced in our GMP workshop with FDA, Kosher and ISO 9001 documentation. They are designed to be skin-compatible in rinse-off and leave-on formats. Share your product base and whether the pigment needs to survive high-pressure molding — we will recommend a grade that fits.

Color Matching

Natural Pearl Shades & Custom Color Matching for Bath Ranges

For the soft, high-end look popular in bath and body lines, white-pearl and interference pearlescent pigments give a gentle, angle-dependent sheen without heavy glitter. They layer well over your existing color base. With 10,000+ colors in our library and a 48-hour custom color-matching window, we can match a specific shade card for your bath range and lock it as a repeatable formula for production.

Effect Pigments

Glow, Color-Change & UV Effects for Bath Products

To differentiate a bath line, effect pigments add a memorable moment: photoluminescent (glow) powders charge under light and glow in a dark bathroom, thermochromic grades shift color with water temperature, and neon/fluorescent shades pop under party UV light. These are formulated for decorative effect and should be validated in your base for skin-contact use. Describe the experience you want — glow, color-shift or UV — and we will match a grade.

Soap Making

Mica Pearl Pigments for Soap: Swirls, Layers & Stable Color

Mica-based pearlescent pigments are a staple for soap: they are dry, matte powders that disperse cleanly and produce stable color in cold-process and melt-and-pour soap. Fine grades work best for smooth swirls and gradient layers, while slightly coarser interference grades add a pearlescent top note. Tell us your soap process and color plan and we will suggest a palette; samples are free and ship within 3 working days.

Indie Brands

OEM/ODM & Small-Batch Supply for Indie Bath Brands

Independent bath and body brands can start small with us: free samples in 3 working days, flexible packaging from small units to bulk, and OEM/ODM/OBM support if you later want a fully private-label supply with Trade Assurance protection. Because we export to 100+ countries, the documentation set your retail buyers ask for — FDA, Kosher, ISO 9001, GMP — is ready from the first order.

Body Wash

Pearl & Glitter for Body Wash & Shampoo

Surfactant systems need a particle that suspends and rinses away cleanly. Our Cosmetic-Grade pearl and glitter disperse in body wash and shampoo without cloudiness, then wash off with no residue. FDA/Kosher/ISO 9001/GMP documents on request; Cosmetic Grade is skin-contact only, not edible.

Body Lotion

Pearl Pigment for Body Lotion & Hand Cream

Leave-on lotions need a smooth, non-gritty shimmer that feels soft on skin. Our Cosmetic-Grade pearl is milled for a light-diffusing finish and stable dispersion in emulsions. FDA/Kosher/ISO 9001/GMP files available; Cosmetic Grade is external-use only, not for ingestion.

Oral Care

Pearl Pigment for Toothpaste & Mouthwash

Near-ingestion formats need a grade confirmed for oral-care use and an RDA-friendly, insoluble particle. We qualify specific models per your formula and market — do not assume a universal 'edible' claim; share the product and we supply the right grade with compliance files (FDA where applicable). Confirm suitability before use.

Body Glitter

Body Glitter for Festival & Party

Leave-on skin glitter for festivals needs a cosmetic-safe, skin-friendly sparkle that stays put and removes easily. Our Cosmetic-Grade body glitter is formulated for external use with FDA/Kosher/ISO 9001/GMP files on request; Cosmetic Grade is not edible — keep it away from food-grade lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from buyers about this product. Click to expand answers.

Cosmetics Grade Pearl Pigment, 15–30 µm is the standard for melt-and-pour and cold-process soap — stable in the alkaline base with no bleed. We confirm per your soap type.

Our cosmetics-grade pearl is selected for soap stability; heavy bleed usually comes from unsuitable grades. Tell us your process (CP/HP/MP) and we’ll map the right grade.

Yes — we offer biodegradable glitter suitable for bath bombs, gels and salts. It rinses away and supports eco positioning; confirm your market’s biodegradability claim rules.

Our cosmetics-grade pearl/glitter is for external-use decoration. We supply specifications and, where applicable, supporting documents; patch-test if you position for sensitive skin.

< 40 µm disperses well in the bicarb/citric mix and gives a pearlescent swirl. For a sparkle top, layer 30–60 µm glitter after molding.

At decorative loadings with proper pre-dispersion, fine pearl ( < 25 µm) stays suspended and does not clog. We advise pre-wetting before adding to the surfactant base.

Bath and soap are external-use — cosmetics grade is correct. Food grade is not required and cosmetic grade is not edible; label accordingly.

Yes — 30–80 µm cosmetics-grade glitter gives sparkle in crystalline salt and rinses cleanly. Keep it decorative-only.

We can provide Halal-compliant formulations and statements where applicable; we confirm per grade and market, not a blanket certification.

Synthetic mica keeps the clearest, brightest reflection in transparent soap; natural mica can slightly mute clarity.

Start low and increase to the desired fleck visibility. Pre-disperse in the oil phase before combining with the abrasive/base to avoid clumping.

Yes. Tell us what you make and we map the right effect pigment to your process — a one-stop color solution from design to finished goods.
