ImerCare® Opaline Your natural solution for a luxurious pearlescent effect in gels and shampoos
- Pearlescence
- Natural, eco-friendly
- One-size-fits-all solution
ImerCare® Opaline is an eco-friendly, premium talc which imparts pearlescence to cosmetic gel and shampoo formulations.
Most pearlizing agents used in cosmetics are based on synthetic ingredients such as glycol stearate derivatives which pose a potential threat to the environment and are difficult to formulate.
ImerCare® Opaline is a 100% natural talc-based solution which can be used to replace conventional pearlizing agents.
ImerCare® Opaline has been specifically engineered using proprietary, patented technology to obtain a particle thickness, shape and particle size distribution which confer a highly pearlescent effect in shower gels and shampoos.

ImerCare® Opaline:
- Confers a highly pearlescent effect to shampoos and shower gels
- Can be used at all pH levels and with all ingredients— even ionic
- Is a one-size-fits-all solution
- Enhances consumer perception of well-being and luxury
- Complies with industry microbiological standards without the need for irradiation
