The powder can come in various colors, depending on the type of mica and the additional pigments used during processing. The colors can range from natural white and beige tones to vibrant shades of blue, green, red, and gold. These colors are usually derived from the natural mineral or enhanced with safe, cosmetic-grade dyes to create an array of vivid and appealing hues.

In 2022, Lingshou Huajing Mica Co., Ltd. launched cosmetic grade mica powder. The flake structure of mica powder can lock the water on the surface of the skin, forming a protective film to effectively prevent water loss. Its unique gloss and reflection effect add natural and charming luster to the skin, and mica powder also has a certain sunscreen effect. To a certain extent, it can reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays on the skin, protect the skin from the external environment, and prevent sunburn.

One of the most significant advantages of mica in cosmetic formulations is its ability to provide a smooth, silky texture. When used in powders, mica helps to improve the spreadability of products, allowing for seamless application on the skin. Additionally, mica can absorb oil, making it a beneficial ingredient in mattifying products.
