The same powder behaves differently depending on where it goes: in a foundation it has to soft-focus and control oil, in a lipstick it has to hold the bullet, in a clay mask it has to absorb sebum without drying the skin. Choosing the wrong grade is not a small compromise — the formula simply will not hold. These are the five categories where we supply most often. Each page sets out the formulation problems you will meet, the powder families that solve them, and the in-house specifications you can check directly.
Base Makeup Powders
Applied to foundation, cushion foundation, pressed powder, loose powder and other base makeup formulations. It can optimize the spreading and skin feel of powders, regulate oil absorption, improve long-lasting and transfer-resistant performance, while providing coverage, soft-focus and skin-tone correcting effects.Functional powders such as boron nitride can provide a fine, high-end highlight and satin finish, improve pressed powder compact strength, and address formulation challenges such as fragile and powdery pressed products, powder fallout, and pilling in liquid base makeup.
Eyeshadow & Blush
Suitable for dry powder formulations such as eyeshadow, blush and baked makeup. Powder raw materials provide smooth spreading, enhance color payoff and pearlescent effects, optimize pressing and molding performance, reduce powder fallout, create diverse makeup effects, and improve the wear resistance of finished makeup products, meeting the development needs of cosmetic manufacturers for dry powder systems.
Lipstick & Lip Gloss
Suitable for various lip formulations, including lipsticks, lip glosses, lip muds and other lip makeup products. It can regulate the viscosity and application texture of the formula, improve sweating and oil separation issues, optimize film-forming speed, enhance the smoothness and wear performance of lip products, and is suitable for oil-based lip makeup systems.
Sunscreen
Inorganic mineral powders such as titanium dioxide and zinc oxide provide physical broad-spectrum UV shielding. When combined with spherical silica-based powders, they effectively reduce particle agglomeration, minimize white cast and pilling during application, and enhance the skin feel of sunscreen formulations — making them suitable for emulsions, creams, sprays, and all types of sunscreen preparations.
Skin Care
Used as a filler, thickener, oil-absorption agent, and skin-feel modifier in skincare formulations such as facial creams, sheet masks, clay masks, and BB creams. It effectively adjusts system viscosity, absorbs excess sebum, improves paste rheology and texture, enhances product skin feel, and strengthens formula stability.
Both routes work. If you already know which product you are developing, the category above is the fastest entry point. If you have a specific powder in hand and want to know where else it can be used, browse the product centre by grade instead. Every powder we sell is manufactured in-house, so surface treatment, particle size and regulatory statements can all be verified in the corresponding section.
