Metallic Gold Mica Powder for Cosmetics, 50 g
This mica-based dry pearlescent pigment produces a distinct pearlescent gold shade that adds soft metallic luster to finished products. The Metallic Pigment Powder remains undissolved in any base and simply imparts color and shimmer. Its fine particles create consistent reflection across surfaces without altering the underlying texture or clarity of the formulation. This cosmetic grade pearlescent pigment enhances resin art and nail designs.
Visual effect and particle behavior
The pigment creates a gentle gold reflection visible under normal lighting. Particle size yields fine, even coverage without visible glitter specks, suitable for smooth decorative finishes. Light interacts with the mica layers to produce the characteristic pearlescent appearance that shifts subtly depending on viewing angle.
It is used in shampoos, gel, bath foam, base for balm, lipstick, artwork, decoration and decorative cosmetics. Because the pigment does not dissolve it can be dispersed directly into both water-based and oil-based systems while maintaining uniform color distribution throughout the batch. The Metallic Silver Mica Powder for Cosmetics, 50 g demonstrates comparable behavior during incorporation.
Start with 1% and increase up to 100% while testing the desired intensity. Gradual addition allows precise control over the final appearance and prevents over-saturation in delicate bases such as lipsticks or balms. The 50 g pack suits sample preparation and small trial batches where multiple tests are required before scaling up production volumes.
Store the pigment in a dry dark place inside a tightly closed container; the material remains usable until 12.2041. Proper storage preserves the reflective properties and prevents moisture absorption that could affect dispersion quality in future batches. Further bulk options appear in the section Pearlescent Pigments Wholesale for users who require larger quantities after successful trials.
Users working with artwork or decoration projects benefit from the same dispersion rules, allowing the pigment to be mixed into resins, varnishes or paints without changing the recommended low starting percentage.
Frequently asked questions
How does the pearlescent gold pigment look in finished products?
The pigment gives a soft metallic gold reflection that appears evenly across the surface. It does not dissolve and therefore stays suspended, providing consistent shimmer without altering texture or transparency of the base.
Can the pigment be added to both water and oil systems?
Yes, the dry powder disperses in either type of system. Because it does not dissolve it simply colors the mixture, allowing use in shampoos, gels, balms and decorative cosmetics alike.
What quantity of pigment should be used for first tests?
Begin at 1% of total weight and increase gradually while checking color strength. The upper limit reaches 100%, yet most applications achieve the intended effect with far smaller amounts.
How should the 50 g pack be stored after opening?
Keep the container tightly closed in a dry dark location. Under these conditions the pigment maintains its properties until the indicated date of 12.2041.
