Useful:

• Description: Cosmetic mica, potassium aluminum silicate dehydrate, is refined and ground to particles of ≤150 μm. This material imparts a natural translucence when used up to 20% in formulations of face powder blushes. Mica is available as wet ground (creamy) or as dry ground (matte).
• Uses: Mica is a generic term that applies to a wide range of hydrous aluminum silicate minerals characterized by sheet or plant-like structure, and possessing to varying degrees, depending on composition and weathering, flexibility, elasticity, hardness, and the ability to be split into thin (1 μm) sheets. mica is used as a texturizer and coloring agent in cosmetics, it provides a “glimmer” or “shimmering” quality in makeup powders. Mica is the group name for a series of ground silicate minerals with similar physical properties but varied chemical composition. Micas range in color from colorless to pale green, brown, or black.
