I add it to a neutral AZ base.
Pink oxide can be incorporated into the following ready-made AZ neutral bases:
Cleansing cream base at a maximum dosage of 1.0%
Melt & Pour bases at a maximum dosage of 1.0%

I create my recipe from A to Z
This oxide can be used dispersed in a powder mixture or suspended in soaps, balms, and sticks.
Powder mixtures: Add the oxide to your powder mixture. Grinding with a mortar or coffee grinder is recommended to obtain uniform colours; using coated talc significantly reduces grinding time.
Oily and waxy mixtures (balms, oils, lipsticks): incorporate at the end of preparation
Pink oxide can be used to create the following shades:
A gradient of pinks
Mauve and purple tones when mixed with blue oxide
Brown, yellow, or red tones when mixed with brown, yellow, or red oxides
Quality
Cosmetics, non-irradiated product, Ecocert certified
Method of production
100% mineral origin
Pink oxide is an ultramarine obtained by mixing, grinding, heat treatment, cooling, washing, filtering, drying, and then grinding (micronisation).
Function
Cosmetic pigment
Other names
Colour Index: CI 77007 (international registry of colouring substances)
INCI designation
Ultramarine
Composition
Ultramarine (mineral complex of double sodium and aluminum silicates containing sulfur - no harmful salts)
Presentation
Ultra-fine powder (5 microns, not considered a nanoparticle product) in an intense pink colour, packaged in a small transparent jar.
Storage
Store away from moisture at room temperature.
Precautions
Wearing gloves, goggles, a dust mask, and a smock is strongly recommended.
Keep out of reach of children, do not swallow, do not inhale the powder.
Pink oxide is unstable in acidic environments. Do not use in acidic aqueous formulas (pH <7) or in effervescent bath product formulas based on citric acid (bath bombs). Never mix with strong acids or household products. Incompatible with AHA fruit acids.

Pink oxide vs pink ochre: which should you choose?
Pink ochre and pink oxide contain iron oxide and ultramarine respectively. While ochre also contains a significant proportion of kaolinite, which is white, pink oxide contains only ultramarine.
In terms of colouring power, pink oxide therefore has a clear advantage. In addition, its small particle size facilitates dispersion in powder or emulsion-based formulations, significantly improving the hold and finish of products containing it.
Pink oxide is therefore the preferred choice for achieving strong, long-lasting colours, particularly in the manufacture of makeup products, while ochre is ideal for creating very natural pastel shades, where colour dispersion is less critical, such as in soaps.
Ochre has the advantage of being extracted directly from nature, making it 100% natural, whereas ultramarine is produced from sulphur through human intervention. For those seeking strictly natural cosmetic ingredients, ochre is therefore often preferred to oxide. Ochre and oxide can also be combined in a formulation, with pink oxide enhancing an ochre-based shade.
