Red Iron Oxide
Red iron oxide is a cosmetic-grade, nature identical pigment produced synthetically to replicate naturally occurring iron oxides while ensuring purity and consistency. It provides a rich, earthy red hue with excellent coverage and stability, making it a staple in both makeup and personal care formulations.
This pigment offers high tinting strength and is resistant to bleeding and fading, which makes it particularly valuable in lip products, blushes, and mineral foundations. It is also commonly used in soapmaking, where it produces warm, brick-red to terracotta tones that remain stable in cold process formulations.
Because it is synthetically produced rather than mined, this pigment avoids concerns about natural impurities while still delivering the same composition as naturally occurring iron oxides.
