Abstract
Abstract A cosmetic suitable for application to the skin (such as eye-shadow, rouge and pressed face powder) is formed by mixing differently colored pigment compositions with binders to form differently colored grains, intermixing the grains and compression-moulding them into a compact, but without destroying the grain structure thereof. The differently colored grains may then separately or simultaneously be applied to the skin with a puff.
