Metallic look effect pigments Cloisonné effect pigments impart dramatic color and varied pearlescent effects to many types of color cosmetics and personal care products. They are available in a variety of grades which provide different degrees of luster ranging from a soft, satiny look to high sparkle. To provide such highly intense color, each Cloisonné pigment contains an absorption colorant deposited on either a mica substrate or an interference pearl base. In grades using an interference base, the colorant is selected to reinforce the reflection color of the interference pigment. The result is a single dramatic reflection / transmission color.
Cloisonné Colors Cloisonné Colors Available in a range of colors including reds, blues, greens and violet, as well as metallic appearances such as gold, bronze, copper and rouge shades, these products can be used alone or in combination with other BASF effect pigments to create complex effects.
