ACT is a hybrid surface treatment consisting of vegetable derived amino acid, fatty acid metal soap and silane. Each component provides unique properties that synergistically make the ACT treatment one of the most effective treatments developed to date. (USP 6,482,441.) ACT treatment is applied to pigments and cosmetic substrates using Miyoshi America’s proprietary unique process, which allows for micronization and uniform surface treatment of individual particles.

Applications:Skin Care, Color Cosmetics, Beauty & Care
Product Families:Hydrophilic Treatments, Treated Pigments & Powders, Pigments & Colorants
Chemical Family:Iron & Iron Compounds, Polysaccharides, Iron Oxides
INCI Name:Iron Oxides, CI 77499, Algin
End Uses:Facial Mask, Skin Brightening Products, Mascara

MiyoAQUA is a hydrophilic surface treatment based on alginate. This anionic polysaccharide is found naturally in oceans around the world in the cell walls of brown algae and kelp. Inorganic pigments such as iron oxide and pigmentary titanium dioxide surface treated with sodium alginate are highly hydrophilic and provide excellent dispersibility and re-dispersibility into the water phase.

Product Families:Hydrophilic Treatments, Treated Pigments & Powders, Pigments & Colorants
Chemical Family:Iron & Iron Compounds, Silica, Iron Oxides
INCI Name:Iron Oxides, CI 77499, CI 77491
End Uses:Lipstick, Foundation, Concealer

Primrose silica coated pigments are hydrophilic pigments that are ideal for O/W and water-rich systems. The silica coating, with a refractive index similar to human skin, provides a soft focus effect by increasing diffuse reflection. As the trends towards O/W systems continues, Primrose pigments help overcome some of the typical drawbacks of O/W systems such as gritty feel, weak color development, and wet/dry color stability. In turn, chemists will be able to formulate systems with the “fresh” watery feel of O/W systems with the added benefit of soft focus color pigments

Applications:Color Cosmetics, Sun Care, Beauty & Care
Product Families:Hydrophobic Treatments, Treated Pigments & Powders, Pigments & Colorants
Chemical Family:Fatty Acids, Iron & Iron Compounds, Iron Oxides
INCI Name:Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate, Iron Oxides, CI 77491
End Uses:Lipstick, Foundation, Eye Shadow

Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate is a synthetic compound derived from fatty acid. When Iron Oxides are surface treated with Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate, they display strong color development properties with increased adhesion to the skin. TPT is very reactive to almost all pigments and forms a uniform coating of lipophilic isostearate groups. There are abundant fatty ester groups on the treated surface; therefore, the titanate treated pigments can be easily wetted by and dispersed in organic vehicles, like esters, mineral oils or petrolatum. Oil absorption is substantially reduced, allowing the loading of pigments in the formula to be increased. TPT treated pigments are suitable for liquid foundations, lipsticks, blushes, eye shadows, and sunscreens.
