Abstract
A reflective skin-spread composition is provided. The composition comprises 80 to 90 w/w % reflective glass microspheres, and 10 to 20 w/w % carrier medium. The reflective glass microspheres have an average diameter of 30 to 80 microns. The carrier medium comprises an emollient ester, a plant emollient, a binder/stabilizer, and a water-resistant film-forming agent. The composition comprises the emollient ester at 3 to 6 w/w %, the plant emollient at 2 to 5 w/w %, the binder/stabilizer at 3 to 6 w/w %, and the water-resistant film-forming agent at 1 to 4 w/w %. An applicator for applying the composition to a surface also is provided. A method of enhancing visibility of a person comprising a step of applying the composition to an exposed skin surface of the person also is provided.
