Process for producing powder wafers for eye shadows, face powder, make-up articles, blusher, etc. with a mosaic effect achieved by compacting variously coloured pellets
There is described a process for producing powder wafers for eye shadows, face powder, make-up articles, blusher, etc. The process comprises pouring an amount of a first powder beauty product (2) having a first colour into a rotating drum mixer (1) and spraying it with an agglomerating liquid until base pellets (5) of said first beauty product (2) are formed. The aforesaid base pellets (5) are sprinkled in said rotating drum mixer (1) with an amount of a second powder beauty product (6) having a second colour sprayed with an agglomerating liquid so as to obtain coated pellets (7) consisting of said base pellets (5) and a coating (8) with said second powder beauty product (6). This step may be repeated with further coating beauty products (9) having further colours to obtain further coated pellets (11). Coated pellets (7, 11) are then filled into a container (12), where they are pre-compacted to highlight the colour differences between base pellets (5) and coatings (8, 10) thereof, subjected to the desired cut-to-height and finally subjected to the final compacting treatment for obtaining a powder wafer having a mosaic effect.
