Magnesium Myristate

Magnesium Myristate – Binding & Adhesion Agent for Cosmetics

Magnesium Myristate is a high-performance cosmetic ingredient used to enhance adhesion, wear time, and texture in a wide range of formulations. Soft and translucent, it integrates seamlessly into your blends without affecting pigment or altering colour intensity—making it especially useful in mineral makeup, eyeshadows, blushes, and pressed powders.

Its non-water-soluble nature helps improve product longevity on the skin, while acting as a gentle binder that holds powders together for smoother application. Recommended usage is between 5–10% of your formulation, depending on your needs.
