MORE INFO
Applications:
Colour Care
Colourmat® products are ideal for long lasting colour care applications as they have good skin adherence. Colourmats can be used in all types of foundations and in powder applications, such as loose and pressed powders, blushers and eye shadows.
Depending on the choice of surface treatment, different functionalities and sensorial perceptions can be achieved. Colourmats can replace conventional pigments in formulations, but they need to be used at a slightly higher percentage. Our Micapoly® range offers similar composite materials as the Colourmats, but without the pigments, so they can be used as fillers alongside with the Colourmat® colourants.
