MS-LAB-001 · generation zero
Chassis MS-LAT-00. Twelve of thirteen share it. The pencil does not. What can ship is a lotion. Living Film is the place the color has to earn.
Color in the mortar. Not on the oil.
A model, not a panel. Nothing below is a passed result. Living Film is not on the cap.
On the oil
Sits on sebum.
Hours moved it. It does not come back.
Blood is under the paint. The reading ignores it.
The follicle takes the color.
In the mortar
Not a batch.
Hours do not move the pigment.
Blood is in the reading. Take it back.
Tighter on the jaw. Looser on the oily mid-face.
True Living Film is all five, true together, in one chassis. Generation zero clears none of them. Until then the words stay off the batch ticket and off the pack.
01Phase
Oxides go in as a paste at or below 40 °C. An emulsion holds them. Ceramide NP is 0.20% — a guest, not the host.
The dry film is a ceramide, cholesterol, and fatty-acid phase, and the oxide is still inside it.
02Blood
No perfusion panel. The only optical target is oxidation: ΔE2000 ≤ 1.8 at 8 hours. That number is a target.
Flush and cold move the reading, and the reading returns when the blood does. Oxidized pigment does not return.
03Thickness
Unmeasured. Polysilicone-11 is held at 1.50% so the chassis does not become a blanket. No petrolatum.
The dry film is thinner than one corneocyte, and water vapor still leaves.
04Removal
Clean Lotion is specified as the other half. 45–60 seconds is a target, not a passed time.
The film leaves with Clean. If it needs a strip, it was paint.
05Cast
CI 77891 stays low, and zero from depth 13. That is a formula rule, not a wear result.
No veil on Fitzpatrick V–VI, including flash.
One film cannot be thin enough for blood and dense enough to kill beard-blue. The line splits the job. The pencil is the only piece outside the lattice.
Color, mid-face, thin enough for blood.
Tighter. Must not crease.
Drier at the jaw and the follicle.
Ash. Kills blue. Not a beige stamp.
The lattice with nothing to oxidize.
The way the film leaves.
Do not print Living Film, “does not oxidize,” “all skin tones,” or an SPF number. Allowed now: lotion-tint, flexible hold, tested on beard.
Ratios move. Chemistry does not. pH 5.2–5.8. Airless fill on Veil and Veil SPF.
A chemist’s checklist. Targets, not results. Notes stay in this browser. Nothing here is a passed panel.
Full face ≤ 12 s. No drag on 2 mm stubble.
Touch-dry 90–150 s. No tack at 5 min.
500 jaw cycles. No pill on a 3-day beard.
ΔE2000 ≤ 1.8 versus t=0 at 8 h. Oily panel and dry panel.
None on Fitzpatrick V–VI. No flashback.
Clean Lotion. 45–60 s.
Leave-on 5.2–5.8.
Veil 8,000–18,000 cP. RV spindle 5, 20 rpm, 25 °C.
Pigment set
CI 77491, 77492, 77499. CI 77891 kept low, zero on deep. CI 77288 only if olive cannot be reached.
Refused
No bismuth oxychloride. No large-pearl mica in complexion. Fragrance default off.
Count
Chassis 25. Color box +5. SKU guests +14. Unique INCIs about 44, about 38 if optionals drop.
