More Information
Opacifying agents are fundamental components in cosmetic formulations, especially in products like foundations and lotions, where achieving an opaque appearance is desired. These agents work by scattering and diffusing light, thereby reducing transparency and creating a visually opaque appearance.
When opacifying agents are added to formulations, they interact with light to minimize the transmission of light through the product. This scattering of light particles helps to conceal imperfections and even out the skin tone, resulting in a smoother and more uniform appearance. Additionally, opacifying agents can also enhance the coverage and longevity of makeup products.
In cosmetic formulations, opacifying agents are commonly used in:
•Foundations
•Lotions
•Creams
