interesting for the cosmetic industry. It is used to add luminosity to many beauty and personal care products, from eyeshadows and highlighters to sunscreens.
After extraction, mica is ground or cut into sheets or flakes for subsequent commercialization. The small particles of this highly reflective mineral are mixed with the ingredients of creams and makeup to achieve a brightening effect. The wide variety of pigments it contains offers a whole range of color possibilities without the need for additives, making mica imported from China and India suitable for natural cosmetic manufacturers.
Each cosmetic ingredient must indicate its name according to the international nomenclature INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients), an identification system created in the 1980s by the CTFA (Cosmetic Toiletry and Fragrance Association) of the United States and adopted by the European Union in 1998. The INCI list can be consulted on the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Health Products website. Meanwhile, the CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service) registers each chemical substance with a unique number, like an identity card.
At Bull Importer, we work with mica imported from verified manufacturers who provide the INCI and CAS of each product. Our clients mainly request the following varieties of oil-soluble mica for the production of soaps, creams, gels, lotions, body milk, balms, eyeshadows, and lip gloss.
