Mica is a natural silicate mineral that plays several important roles in skincare. The main mica benefits for skin include:
• Adding glow and shine. Thanks to its layered structure, mica reflects and scatters light, creating a soft, luminous glow on the skin. That's the reason it's a key ingredient in highlighters, eyeshadows, and glow-enhancing products.
• Improving texture. Finely ground mica gives cosmetics a silky, smooth texture, along with easy application and better adhesion (long-lasting wear).
