Duochrome Mica Powder

Duochrome Mica Powder

 

Interference Mica Powder or Duochrome Mica Powder are translucent powder made of Mica coated with Titanium Dioxide. The most interesting nature of this powder is that they are angle dependent; when you look at them they appear more white, but if look at them at different angles or rub them onto your skin or make them wet, you will see glorious iridescent hues within them.

The presence of the difference colours is due to the thickness / layers of the Titanium Dioxide or Iron Oxide deposited onto Mica particles, and therefore, when ligt strikes the surface of these particles, the result is the reflection of various wonderful colours. 

Our Duochrome Mica Powder can be used in different application such as in soap making, epoxy resin, makeup cosmetics, nail design, arts, and more.  When working with these Duochrome Mica Powder, it is important to know that they can be mixed with other colours, but if blended with a white based colours, the highlighting effect will be diluted, and therefore will disappear. On the other hand, if mixed with darker colours that are normally absorb light rather than reflect, they will make a wonderful variety of iridescent colours.
