Description

Mother of pearl, or nacre, is a remarkable natural composite secreted by mollusks to form the inner lining of their shells and the structure of pearls. Composed of aragonite platelets bound together by elastic biopolymers like chitin and silk-like proteins, nacre is known for its extraordinary strength, durability, and lustrous appearance. Its layered, “brick-and-mortar” arrangement gives it a toughness comparable to engineered materials like silicon.

The iconic shimmer of nacre comes from its microscopic structure—thin, uniform layers that reflect and refract visible light through interference. This creates its signature iridescence, where the reflected color shifts depending on the viewing angle. Across cultures, mother of pearl has been celebrated for its beauty and used in jewelry, ornamentation, and spiritual practices.

FSS Powdered Mother of Pearl allows these optical and symbolic properties to be applied to modern cosmetic formulations. With a fine particle size, it can be safely used on delicate areas like the lips and eyes to provide soft exfoliation, enhance skin’s glow, or add luminous shine to hair. This active offers a graceful balance of refinement and functionality, perfect for enhancing both the visual appeal and sensory performance of personal care products.
