Sericite Mica
Sericite mica is a cosmetic-grade, off-white mica that serves as one of the primary base ingredients in mineral makeup. It is a soft satin powder that spreads easily on the skin, helping to create a smooth, even finish and a natural sense of translucency in final products.
This versatile mica is valued for its adhesion, slip, and light-diffusing properties, making it an ideal base for powders, blushes, foundations, and eyeshadows. It also improves the feel and performance of formulations, offering a silky application that helps colour pigments blend more evenly.
In addition to its cosmetic benefits, sericite mica has excellent resistance to water and oil, helping makeup last longer on the skin. It can be used on its own for a satin effect or as a key blending ingredient in almost any powder-based formulation.
Our sericite mica is mined under safe and ethical conditions, and is safe, non-toxic, and suitable for use across all cosmetic applications.
