Burgundy Brown Mica Powder (ZPBROWN-009)

Burgundy Brown Mica Powder is a deep burgundy-brown cosmetic pigment used to add a rich plum-brown tone, metallic shimmer, and decorative reflective finish to soaps, resin, candles, bath bombs, creams, lotions, and DIY cosmetic formulations.

This shade is darker and richer than a regular brown mica. It is suitable for creating burgundy-brown effects, warm plum-brown shimmer, vintage metallic tones, decorative soap swirls, resin color effects, and custom pigment blends. It can be used alone for a deep burgundy-brown finish or blended with gold, copper, bronze, red, pink, or white mica powders to adjust the tone and intensity.

This mica powder is an insoluble pigment, not a water-soluble or oil-soluble dye. It does not dissolve in water or oil. Instead, it disperses into suitable cosmetic and craft bases with proper mixing. In thin liquids, mica particles may float initially or settle over time. This is normal behavior for mica pigments.

For best results, pre-mix the mica powder with a small amount of glycerin, oil, alcohol, soap base, resin, or your formulation base to make a smooth slurry before adding it into the final product.

Important Note

Mica powder is a pigment, not a soluble color dye. It will not dissolve completely in water or oil. Final color, shimmer, and dispersion may vary depending on the base, mixing method, usage level, and formulation type. The shade may appear lighter, darker, warmer, or more muted depending on the base and amount used. Always test in a small batch before final production.
