Red Oxide Mineral Dye

Aroma-Zone’s red mineral oxide is generally appreciated for its colouring power and the results it delivers in homemade cosmetic preparations. Many customers highlight its beautiful, intense and well-pigmented colour, with good yield: a small amount seems to be enough to colour effectively. It is used in particular in DIY make-up products such as blushers, concealers, nail varnishes, eyeshadows and lipsticks, as well as in solid soaps, where several reviews mention satisfactory results, particularly in cold-process soap-making. The main reservation concerns the shade obtained: more than a quarter of customers state that the colour is not a true red, but rather a brick red, orange, orange-brown or ochre. This may disappoint those seeking a bright red or carmine shade, particularly for lip or eye make-up. However, the warm shade produced is suitable for other creative uses and remains popular with many users.
