Triethoxycaprylylsilane treated pigments offer benefits of both silicone and hydrocarbon treatments with the presence of hydrocarbon chain on silicone backbone. Alkyl Silane treated pigments have excellent dispersibility in various oils including; esters, mineral oils, plant oils and silicone fluids. The lipophilic caprylyl group offers excellent hydrophobicity and unique creamy/adhesive feel in powders and liquid formulations. It allows for good coverage onto the skin due to its affinity with sebum.

Consumers have become more focused on natural, eco-friendly and sustainable ingredients in their cosmetic products. Upwards of 60% of consumers are carefully reading the composition of their products. With this in mind, the Miyoshi Group launched the MiyoNAT VAA range, combining both naturality and performance

Sunscreen products containing mineral sunscreens, particularly those containing zinc oxide, consistently rate as the safest products on the market. Zinc oxide is stable in sunlight and offers a good balance of protection from both UVB and UVA ultraviolet radiation. MiyoSHADE Z Plus is a non-nano zinc oxide sunscreen, surface treated with Miyoshi’s hybrid silicone that provides enhanced benefits such as broad spectrum coverage, smooth texture, and compatibility with many solvents

Chemists often have difficulty finding high opacity, pure white powders for their formulations that remain true to color in both wet and dry conditions, a key point to developing liquid foundations. To combat this, Miyoshi America has developed MiyoHAZE White, an innovative, multi-functional opacifying powder that can be used in a wide range of cosmetic products. MiyoHAZE White’s unique properties display both wet and dry color fidelity with high opacity resulting in a soft-focus effect in the end formulation. MiyoHAZE White can also be surface treated to provide additional value-added benefits such as strong hydrophobicity, high coverage, and enhanced feel.

MiyoHAZE BT is an innovative soft-focus composite. Barium sulfate is commonly used in cosmetics as a colorant and an opacifying agent. Miyoshi has taken barium sulfate to the next performance level, creating a barium sulfate/titanium dioxide sandwich-like composite, providing excellent wet and dry haze. MiyoHAZE BT provides higher diffused reflection and higher luminosity without significant attenuation compared to conventional barium sulfate. Its true talent is remaining consistent in delivering a natural look and moderate opacity that blurs imperfections and highlights a flawless complexion

The Miyoshi Group has developed a large range of multi-functional porous and non-porous silica beads. Silica beads provide slip, fluidity and spreadability in both powder and liquid systems. They also offer soft-focus and sebum/oil absorption properties.

Olive derivatives such as squalane are often used in make-up formulations for their multiple benefits including easy spreading and a nourishing yet not oily feeling. They also show excellent compatibility with many different types of oils. Moreoever, raw materials derived from olive oil are the prefect answer to formulating chemists’ growing demand for natural ingredients. Even today it is, still complicated to find ingredients that combine high performance and vegetable origin, especially in the cosmetic industry. Consumers continue to hope for naturally derived personal care products that provide a norishing feel, comfortable & homogeneous feel, and long lasting properties

Sericite S-150 is a natural origin mineral that aids in the spreading of cosmetics. Its characteristic in formulations provides excellent spreadability and a smooth texture resulting in a natural matte finish.

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.

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

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.

The MiyoSHADE line of inorganic Titanium Dioxide powder sunscreens provide some of the most effective and safest protection while providing long lasting and water resistant properties. These sunscreens are registered with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States and also comply with the Annex VI of Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009 opinion in the European Union.

SA/SAT is the Ultimate Patented Silicone treatment for application to cosmetic pigments and substrates and is composed of Bonded Dimethicone. Bonded Dimethicone treated products have many advantages compared to materials that are either treated with conventional Methyl Hydrogen Polysiloxane (MHPS), or simply mixed with Dimethylpolysiloxane fluid (DMPS). While many other types of treatments may dull pearlescent pigments, SA/SAT Treatment brings out their natural luster and shine.

Sericite CS-15 is a natural mineral cosmetic powder that aids in the spreading of cosmetics. It offers good hiding power relative to talc and mica and has a smooth texture. Miyoshi is able to offer Sericite CS-15 surface treated with a variety of our innovative surface treatments including our patented, silky-smooth Dimethicone (SA) treatment for a luxurious feel

A proper dispersion is essential for optimal performance of a sunscreen product. It provides better UV protection, improves stability, and reduced whitening improves cosmetic appeal. Titanium dioxide is an effective UV absorber, and its physical and chemical stability differentiates this filter from organic UV absorbers. To improve dispersion in formulas and performances, TiO2 is available treated with various inorganic and organic compounds. Many dispersions can be difficult to work with due to their lack of flow in cosmetic oils and their requirement to be dispersed using a surfactant or dispersant

NAI (replacing the original AI, animal-derived treatment) is based on the chemical bonding of Disodium Stearoyl Glutamate to pigments and substrates. The NAI treatment was quickly embraced worldwide because of its unique benefits. The Compatibility of NAI treated pigments in silicone-based systems has been amply demonstrated by their usage in a number of commercially available W/S liquid foundations. NAI and NAID is longwearing and provides a moist, dewy feel while being much easier to disperse in oils and silicones.
