Iron Oxide--Red

Iron Oxide Red: Revolutionizing Cosmetic Pigmentation with Unparalleled Performance

Introduction

Iron Oxide Red (CI 77491) represents a pinnacle of innovation in cosmetic-grade pigments, engineered for superior color performance and formulation stability. As a cornerstone in makeup and skincare formulations, our iron oxide powders undergo advanced surface treatment to deliver exceptional chromatic intensity, ease of dispersion, and long-lasting vibrancy. Ideal for foundations, lipsticks, eyeshadows, and sunscreens, this pigment redefines

1. Exceptional Color Properties

• High Color Strength & Brightness: Delivers intense, opaque coverage with minimal pigment loading, ensuring vibrant red hues that remain true across batches.
• Minimal Color Deviation: Advanced encapsulation technology guarantees consistent shade reproducibility (±0.5 ΔE), eliminating batch-to-batch inconsistencies.
• Lightfastness & Stability: Resists fading under UV exposure and maintains integrity in diverse pH environments (3–10).

1. Superior Application Experience

• Silky Texture & Moisturization: Surface-modified particles provide a velvety, non-gritty feel, enhancing skin adherence and reducing drag during application.
• Effortless Blendability: Optimized particle size (0.1–0.5 µm) ensures seamless integration into emulsions, creams, and powders.

1. Advanced Hydrophobic Engineering

• Oil & Silicone Affinity: Triethoxycaprylylsilane or Hydrogen Dimethicone surface treatments enable instant, lump-free dispersion in anhydrous systems (e.g., oils, esters, cyclomethicones).
• Enhanced Formulation Stability: Prevents agglomeration and sedimentation, extending shelf life and ensuring uniform color distribution in final products.
• Water Resistance: Creates a moisture barrier ideal for long-wear and waterproof cosmetics.
