Functional Ingredients

CRYSTAL 3080 SA is a mineral-derived ingredient derived from alumina. It can be used as an abrasive agent for exfoliation, a thickening and texturizing agent, an absorbent for sebum control, or as a coating agent for pigments and powders. A mineral alternative to natural sapphire powder, it brings a prestigious and luxurious dimension to high-end formulas while improving sensory performance and spreadability. Thanks to its lamellar structure, this powder uniformly diffuses and reflects light on the skin surface, creating a refined blurring effect that visibly minimizes wrinkles, fine lines, and imperfections for a smoother, more luminous, and even complexion. Thanks to its particle size, CRYSTAL 3080 SA provides a glow effect by effectively diffusing light.
