Gelest Sericite HS (SAA-HSA) is a white to off-white powder treated with disodium carboxyethyl siliconate. This pigment is used in various color cosmetic formulations. The hydrophilic treatment allows for superior dispersion in water for high loading. This pigment has a higher tinting strength and a reduced tendency for color flotation and plate-out.

Seribrite™ SS (SAB-SSA) is a high-whiteness sericite that provides slip and creaminess not achievable with other treated and untreated sericites. The stearyl triethoxysilane treatment imparts the excellent wetting properties of the shorter-chain silanes with a more emollient skin feel in powders and dispersed systems. It is a pigment that is used in various color cosmetic formulations.

Gelest Sericite SR (SAA-SRA) is a white to off-white powder treated with trimethylsiloxysilicate. The hydroxyl-terminated silsesquioxane network in the coating improves adhesion to skin and hair, making it ideal for use in color cosmetic formulations. This pigment is the best candidate for use in long-wearing and water-resistant makeup.

Gelest Sericite SS (SAA-SSA) is a white to off-white powder treated with stearyl triethoxysilane. This hydrophobic treatment imparts the excellent wetting properties of the shorter-chain silanes with a more emollient skin feel in powders and dispersed systems. It is a pigment that is used in various color cosmetic formulations.

Gelest Sericite TC (SAA-TCA) is a white to off-white powder treated with triethoxycaprylylsilane. This alkyl silane coating provides a very hydrophobic surface that increases the ease of particle dispersion in natural and synthetic fluids and helps stabilize particles in emulsion systems. This pigment is used in various color cosmetic formulations.

Gelest Sericite ML (SAA-MLA) is a white to off-white powder treated with dimethicone PEG-3 laurate. This treatment allows for high pigment loading, water repellency, and low viscosity dispersion to maximize color intensity. It is used in various color cosmetic formulations.

Color Techniques D-9051/I Hydrophobic Mica/ Improved appears as satin white used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.
