Micas








A class of colorants that are either mined from the earth or created in a lab.  Because of impurities found in the earth, pigments and oxides must be stringently purified to meet safety requirements regarding lead and other heavy metals.  Many labs choose to bypass this process and instead create pure colorants.   Technically man-made, these colorants have the same chemical composition as mined ones, minus the heavy metals.  These are considered 
natural. 

MoonDust bath & body uses micas, oxides and pigments in many of our products.  As well as clays and botanicals.
