Abstract: The present invention relates to five-layered pigments based on multi-coated platelet-shaped substrates which comprise a layer sequence comprising (A) a layer of SnO2 having a layer thickness of 0.1-50 nm, (B) a high-refractive-index coating consisting of TiO2 in the rutile modification having a layer thickness of 10-800 nm, (C) a colorless coating having a refractive index n?1.8 having a layer thickness of 20-800 nm, (D) a high-refractive-index coating consisting of SnO2 having a layer thickness of 0.1-50 nm, (E) a layer of TiO2 in the rutile modification having a layer thickness of 10-800 nm, and optionally (F) an outer protective layer, and to the use thereof in paints, coatings, powder coatings, printing inks, security printing inks, plastics, ceramic materials, glasses, as dopants for the laser marking of papers and plastics, in cosmetic formulations and for the preparation of pigment preparations and dry preparations.

Abstract: The invention relates to pigment mixtures comprising at least two components A and B. The inventive pigment mixtures are characterized in that component A is embodied as effect pigments while component B is embodied as coloring agents and fillers. Also disclosed is the use of said pigment mixtures in cosmetic formulations and for coloring food products and pharmaceutical products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to glass flakes and to the use thereof, in particular as transparent filler in cosmetic formulations. Glass flakes having certain dimensions are suitable, owing to their transparency, as filler in cosmetic formulations since they do not change the basic color of the formulation and at the same time improve the skin feel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to intensely coloured and light-stable effect pigments based on transparent, undoped SiO2 flakes, which are distinguished by the fact that they are covered with an iron-oxide layer having a thickness of 30-150 nm, and all SiO2 flakes have an identical thickness, and the thickness of the SiO2 flakes is 250-400 nm, and to the use thereof in pigment mixtures, in cosmetic formulations and for colouring foods and pharmaceutical products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cosmetic formulations with IR protection which are distinguished by the fact that they comprise functional pigments. The invention furthermore relates to cosmetic formulations which, besides the IR pigment, comprise colorants, fillers, cosmetic active compounds and cosmetic raw materials and auxiliaries, and to the use thereof in care and decorative cosmetics.

Abstract: Pigment mixtures which have at least two components, where component A comprises effect pigments based on glass flakes and component B comprises flake-form, needle-shaped, spherical or crystalline colorants or fillers, and to the use thereof, in particular in cosmetic formulations and for the coloring or as a coating of products in the foods and pharmaceuticals sector are described.

Abstract: Described are encapsulated pigments having an outer water-soluble shell and a core containing organic and/or inorganic pigments and optionally solvents and/or conventional additives. The encapsulated pigments have very good dissolution rates in aqueous systems and are therefore particularly suitable for paints, coatings, printing inks, in papermaking and in cosmetic formulations.
