What are the uses of mica

The manufacturing process of synthetic mica involves several key steps. First, raw materials are carefully selected and mixed in precise proportions. Then, they undergo high-temperature processes that cause them to crystallize and form the characteristic layered structure of mica. The final product is then ground into fine particles, resulting in a powder that can be used in various formulations. This meticulous process ensures that synthetic mica is free from impurities and contaminants often found in natural mica, making it an attractive option for high-end applications.

Another advantage of pigment powders is their ability to be layered for more complex looks. Depending on how they are applied—dry or wet—it’s possible to achieve different intensities and finishes. A technique known as foiling, where the pigment is applied wet, can create a mesmerizing metallic effect perfect for evening looks. Conversely, dry application allows for sheer, buildable color suitable for daily wear.
