Basic Properties

Characteristics of Cosmetic-Grade Red Iron Oxide

Our cosmetic-grade red iron oxide stands out due to its superior characteristics, which contribute to the performance and aesthetic appeal of finished cosmetic products:

• High Purity and Stability: We ensure rigorous quality control during manufacturing to maintain high purity levels and keep heavy metal content well within safe limits.
• Exceptional Tinting Strength and Dispersibility: It delivers intense, vibrant red hues and exhibits excellent dispersibility in a variety of cosmetic media, including silicone oils, esters, and hydrocarbons. This prevents aggregation, ensuring a smooth, uniform application and consistent color.
• Superior Weather and Light Fastness: Formulations incorporating our red iron oxide maintain their color integrity over time, resisting fading or discoloration even with prolonged exposure to light and environmental elements.
• Low Oil Absorption: The low oil absorption property of our pigment helps to enhance the coverage and uniformity of cosmetic products, contributing to a flawless finish.

Applications Across Cosmetic Categories

The versatility of cosmetic-grade red iron oxide makes it an indispensable ingredient across a broad spectrum of cosmetic and personal care products:

• Foundations and Concealers: It's a key component in liquid and cream foundations, as well as concealers, providing natural red undertones that help to even out skin tone and minimize imperfections. It can be expertly blended with other pigments, like titanium dioxide, to achieve optimal coverage.
• Lipsticks and Lip Balms: As a primary coloring agent, it delivers vivid red shades to lipsticks and lipbalms, offering excellent adherence and long-lasting wear. It can be synergistically combined with moisturizing agents and antioxidants to enhance product stability and user experience.
• Eyeshadows and Eyeliners: Ideal for creating a rich palette of eyeshadows and liquid eyeliners, it offers superb color payoff and durability. When paired with other pigments, such as ultramarine blue, it allows for the creation of more complex and appealing color effects.
• Blushes and Highlighters: This pigment imparts natural-looking red tones to blushes and highlighters, ensuring impressive color rendering and longevity. Its compatibility with moisturizing and antioxidant ingredients further contributes to stable and high-performing formulations.
