BELLASIL BG275

Silica. Acts as an anti-caking, mattifying, sebum absorbing and exfoliating ingredient. It is an amorphous silica gel. The high porosity of the silica gel enables it to absorb over 3 times its weight in liquids. Liquid ingredients can be turned into powders. The inert chemical nature of BELLASIL silica stabilizes fragrance, color, separation, adhesion, thickening and fluidity. Powders can be kept dry and free-flowing with a small amount of BELLASIL. By controlling the viscosity of the makeup with BELLASIL, the application thickness can be carefully controlled. Allows high spreadability while maintaining uniformity and a wonderful look and feel to the skin. Absorbs sweat and oil while leaving the skin soft and powdery. Specifically in foundations and blush, BELLASIL allows for a matte complexion when applied to the skin and resists the formation of an oily layer on top of the makeup. Aides in the reduction of sebum, which contributes to acne and can cause shade change in makeup. Used in foundations, blushes, eye shadows, lotions, aerosols and skin exfoliatings products.
