Provided is a treated platy substrate, a method of making it, and methods of using it. The substrate can be synthetic mica, optionally comprising metal-oxide layers. The treated platy substrate is useful in cosmetic compositions.

Treated platy substrates

This disclosure is directed to a black effect pigment and a method of forming said pigment. The pigment comprises a platy substrate coated with SnOand/or SnOhydrates and FeOwith an optional coating of metal oxides such as SiO, TiO, ZrOand ZnO. The deposition of the SnOand/or SnOhydrates onto the substrate improves the adhesion and prepares the substrate surface for deposition of the iron oxides onto the platy surface, especially mica surfaces. While the pigment may be used in such applications as coating, powder coating, printing ink, plastic, ceramic material, glass, cosmetic formulation, laser marking pigment, pigment composition or dry preparation, the pigment is especially suitable for cosmetic applications.

Black effect pigment

A combination pigment having a mica and/or metal oxide-coated mica substrate, an absorption colorant coating, and a waxy film bonding the absorption colorant coating to the substrate.

Colored micaceous pigments having bismuth oxychloride appearance and performance effects

A foundation having a shade which covers a wide spectrum of different skin tones and undertones, comprises red and gold interference pigments, which provide a formula that is adaptable to both red and yellow skin undertones. The composition virtually eliminates the risk of application of the wrong foundation color, and provides enhanced color and textural effects, and superior optical performance.
