ImerCare® MicaSilk

ImerCare MicaSilk is as soft as talc!
Produced through an innovative production process, ImerCare® MicaSilk has an optimized particle structure which confers a ‘talc-like’ soft and creamy texture to pressed and loose make-up powders, coupled with a subtle combination of transparency and smoothness.
Due to its high lamellarity index, ImerCare® MicaSilk demonstrates excellent cohesion in pressed powders. Its high oil absorption capacity provides a long-lasting matte effect.
ImerCare® MicaSilk can be used at incorporation rates of up to 85%. It is an ideal solution for pressed powder, loose powder, eye-shadow and blush.
ImerCare® MicaSilk performance confirmed by external panel tests
In panel tests comparing ImerCare® MicaSilk and talc in a pressed powder formulation, ImerCare MicaSilk demonstrated very similar performance to talc in terms of softness, cohesion, adhesion, transparency and matte effect.
