Cosmetics & Beauty

For most eyeshadows, 15–30 µm is the sweet spot: visible pearl with good skin adhesion. Use < 15 µm for satin/pressed bases and 30–60 µm for loose sparkle. We supply sample sets so you can test compression and payoff.

We offer cosmetic-grade grades supported by FDA, Kosher, ISO 9001 and GMP documentation on request. For lip-area use we recommend specific fine-grade cosmetic pearls — share your formula and market so we can confirm the right grade.

Pearl gives a smooth, reflective glow; glitter gives discrete sparkle. For lip gloss we usually recommend fine pearl ( < 30 µm) for comfort, or cosmetic-grade fine glitter if a disco-sparkle effect is required. Both are external-use only.

Some pearlescent grades cross over, but nail polish needs solvent-resistant treatment to prevent bleeding in lacquer. Eyeshadow can use standard cosmetic pearl. Tell us both applications and we’ll map the correct grade/certification.

Yes — our solvent-resistant pearl and chameleon series are formulated for nitrocellulose and UV/LED gel systems without color migration or settling.

Cosmetic-grade is produced under stricter purity, particle-size and microbial controls for skin contact; industrial grades are for coatings/plastics. We never recommend industrial grades for cosmetics.

Yes, our < 25 µm cosmetic-grade pearl is suitable for rinse-off masks and leave-on skincare when used at typical decorative levels. It is external-use only and not edible.

We can provide Halal-compliant formulations and supporting documents where applicable. We do not claim a blanket “Halal certified” status for all products; we confirm per grade and market.

Synthetic mica gives the cleanest, brightest reflection and best purity for leave-on lip products; borosilicate adds a high-clarity glass sparkle if the formula is clear or lightly tinted.

Start with a low directional loading and increase until the desired shimmer is visible without a gritty feel. Our fine cosmetic pearl disperses well in oil-in-water emulsions; pre-dispersion in a small amount of emollient helps stability.

Our synthetic mica and borosilicate-based pearls are mineral/synthetic and do not contain animal-derived ingredients. We can confirm the specific grade and supply a statement on request.

Some pigments span several uses — e.g. pearlescent and glow appear in cosmetics, coatings and DIY — but the right grade and certification differ by application. Tell us your uses and we map the correct grade.
