In the area of colour cosmetics and packaging glitter has been an important recipe component for shimmering and brilliant effects.
The SiLiglam and SiLiglit brand stands for effect glitters from Sigmund Lindner GmbH. Unlike conventional types of glitter, all SiLiglam types are based on a unique production process. With conventional types of glitter, a film-like initial material is dyed and then cut into the desired particle size. The production of SiLiglam types, on the other hand, is in opposite order: substrates in particle form, which are in the desired particle size, serve as a raw material. The particles of the initial material are surrounded by the coating material using an innovative coating process. This coating can either be coloured or transparent.
There are numerous combination possibilities of substrates and colour pigments through the colouring process in the last production step. As a result, it is possible to create customised glitter for various demanding applications.
Colouring cosmetic formulas with effect glitters of the SiLiglam product range is a particularly challenging area of application. When selecting raw materials for the different SiLiglam types, special emphasis is placed on the widest possible approval for a wide range of cosmetic applications. Thus, the SiLiglam types are suitable for different cosmetic formulas such as eyelid powder, eye lid gel, eye liner, eye liner pens, eyelash mascara, nail polish, lipsticks, lip ointments, lip gloss and also for powder-shaped or liquid make-up formulas. The SiLiglam product range sets itself apart through excellent resistance in all conventional cosmetic formulas. As a result, formula possibilities arise which were previously not possible with traditional glitters. SiLiglam is also available in an antimony free version.
The current product range includes SiLiglam Type P, Type I and Type H. Here, SiLiglam Type P is based on polyester film, Type I with an iridescent film and type H on a film with holographic effects. In principle, all substrates in particle form are suitable as an initial material for the SiLiglam product range. Products are developed based on glass flakes and mica.
The SiLiglam brand is expanding the traditional field of effect glitters and offers new possibilities for the individual design of cosmetic formulas as well as new possibilities for printing.
