DermaGlo™ DGP-20
- INCI Name
- Luminescent Zinc Sulfide
DermaGlo™ DGP-20 is the only legal phosphorescent pigment for cosmetics that meets the purity specifications outlined by US FDA (Consult 21 CFR73. 229). DGP-20 charges quickly by daylight, incandescent, fluorescent or UV light and produces a bright green emission color without an external light source. The length of the afterglow depends on pigment concentration, surface area and charging time. DGP-20 can be used up to 10% by weight of the final product provided it is not for regular or daily use. A good example would be Halloween make up.
