Introducing two breathtaking cosmetic pigments

Sparkle, shimmer, shine! – Xirona^® Moonlight Sparks and Timiron^® Ice Crystal

Whether it’s dramatic luster you’re after or metallic color travel, Merck’s new cosmetic pigments are just what you’ve been waiting for! Enhancing the properties of your products and thus the beauty of your customers has never been so dazzlingly easy.

Timiron^® Ice Crystal – For frosty looks that melt hearts

This high-intensity silver-white pigment adds a touch of cool elegance to any Color Cosmetic or Personal Care product. Containing synthetic fluorphlogopite, coated with titanium dioxide, it represents the latest technology based on synthetic mica. Its crystal-like glitter and sparkle come with smooth feel characteristics – a result of thoughtful particle engineering.

Combine it with other pigments to achieve glittering effects across the color spectrum or let it take center stage. Your products will deliver astonishing shimmer and unparalleled luminosity even in opaque applications.

Timiron^® Ice Crystal can be used in all cosmetic applications worldwide and is in compliance with REACH.
Xirona^® Moonlight Sparks – Rival the moon’s mysterious beauty

This color travel pigment takes you on a sparkly journey from subtle silver to glorious gold – the first on the market to achieve this. The calcium aluminum borosilicate substrate with a special coating technology and a particle size distribution of 20 to 200 µm provides a very clear and brilliant sparkle as well as strong chroma.

Thanks to this product's high degree of transparency, you can enhance your cosmetic formulas without changing their base color. And especially those formulations that promise long-lasting effects will benefit from extraordinary skin adhesion.

Xirona^® Moonlight Sparks is approved for use around the globe and suited for all cosmetic applications.
