New pigment adds glamour

Merck has introduced a new effect pigment for the cosmetics industry: Ronastar Lapis Jewel.

The pigment gives colour cosmetics for the eyes and nails the look and feel of this semi-precious stone. 

It is ideally suited for stunning eye shadows and brilliant nail polishes with intense blue sparkles achieving a certain glamour factor. 

Following Ronastar Golden Jewel and Ronastar Copper Jewel, the new Merck product continues the jewel series of effect pigments for exquisite cosmetics. The pigment consists of calciumaluminum borosilicate platelets, coated with special metal oxides and iron blue. Its sparkle in cosmetics is based on a particle size of 20 μm to 200 μm that creates innovative light reflections. 

Ronastar Lapis Jewel is easy to use in cosmetic formulations and meets the requirements of the European REACH regulation.
