TALC
Talc, a soft mineral composed primarily of magnesium, silicon, and oxygen, has been a staple in cosmetic formulations for over a century due to its silky texture, opacity, and moisture-absorbing properties. It’s widely used in products like foundation, blush, eyeshadow, and baby powder. In cosmetics, talc provides a smooth application, helps prevent caking, and enhances the feel and finish of products.
The use of talc in cosmetics can be traced back thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians are known to have used talc-based powders as part of their skincare and cosmetic regimens. In modern times, talc’s popularity grew as its ability to improve product texture and performance in makeup became recognized.
Benefit of Surface Treatment
1. Hydrophobicity & Water Resistance
Our advanced Surface Treatment technology makes the powder highly hydrophobic. It repels water and sweat, preventing makeup from breaking down or darkening over time. This is essential for long-lasting and waterproof formulations.
2. Superior Skin Adhesion
Surface treatment significantly improves the adhesion of the powder to the skin. It ensures that the makeup stays in place all day without flaking or caking, providing a smooth and flawless finish.
3. Improved Dispersibility & Stability
Surface-treated powders disperse more easily in oil binders, reducing processing time and ensuring a uniform texture. They also enhance the overall stability of the final product, preventing phase separation
