Mica

A natural mineral used to add a soft shimmer or a smooth, blurring finish — it sits on the surface for looks, not skincare.

What it does

Mica is a finely milled mineral that reflects light, giving products a subtle glow or a soft-focus finish on the skin. It is widely used in tinted and illuminating formulas and in some moisturizers for a healthy-looking sheen. It is purely cosmetic in effect and stays on the surface.
