Iron oxides (CI 77491, 77492, 77499) are naturally occurring mineral pigments frequently used for coloring in skincare and cosmetic products. These compounds are available in three main colors: red (CI 77491), yellow (CI 77492), and black (CI 77499). Combining these colors allows for the creation of a wide range of shades. Iron oxides are characterized by their stability, non-toxicity, and low reactivity, making them ideal for makeup products such as foundations, blush, and eyeshadow.

Where does it come from?
Iron oxides are extracted from natural minerals in the Earth's crust. However, for use in cosmetics and skincare products, they are purified to ensure consistent quality and safety, remove any impurities, and obtain standardized, skin-friendly shades. This process also ensures that the iron oxides used in cosmetics are free of heavy metals and therefore suitable for sensitive skin.
Natürliche Pigmentierung: Sorgt für eine satte, lang anhaltende Farbe, die farbbeständig ist und sich daher ideal für Make-up-Formulierungen eignet.
Ungiftig und sicherAufgrund ihrer reaktionsarmen und inerten Eigenschaften gelten sie als sicher für die Anwendung auf allen Hauttypen, einschließlich empfindlicher Haut.
UV-SchutzBietet einen leichten Schutz vor UV-Strahlen, wenn es in Formulierungen enthalten ist, und trägt so zur Wirksamkeit von Sonnenschutzmitteln bei.
Stabil und nicht reizendBleibt unter verschiedenen Bedingungen, wie z. B. Lichteinwirkung und Wärmeeinwirkung, stabil, ohne Hautreizungen zu verursachen.
Anpassbare Farbtöne: Ermöglicht die Herstellung einer breiten Farbpalette, die für verschiedene Hauttöne und Produkttypen geeignet ist.
