Cosmetic Grade Iron Oxide Pigment Codes

High-performance inorganic pigment with excellent color stability, weather resistance, and broad application range.

Safety and Beauty in Every Particle

Deqing Demi Pigment Technology Co., Ltd. is a trusted supplier of high-purity cosmetic oxides. We understand that in the beauty industry, "Purity is Quality." Our cosmetic grade series is manufactured in dedicated, ultra-clean environments to ensure compliance with global safety codes. We provide the "Regulated Beauty" that allows cosmetic formulators to create world-class products that are as safe as they are stunning.

Cosmetic Code Usage Areas

  • Face Makeup: Skin-tone matching in foundations and concealers (CI 77491, 77492, 77499).
  • Lip Products: Stable, non-toxic red and orange tones for lipsticks and liners.
  • Eye Cosmetics: Deep black and brown oxides for eyeliners and mascaras.
  • Nail Lacquers: High-opacity, non-migrating pigments for durable nail color.

Cosmetic Grade Purity Specs

ContaminantLimit (Typical)Method

Lead (Pb)< 10 ppmICP-MS
Mercury (Hg)< 1 ppmICP-MS
Cadmium (Cd)< 1 ppmICP-MS
Microbial Count< 100 cfu/gCulture Test

Core Characteristics

  • Hypoallergenic: Naturally inert mineral structure is safe for sensitive skin.
  • High Tinting Prowess: Provides intense color at very low concentrations.
  • Hydrophilic/Hydrophobic Options: Available with surface treatments for oil or water phases.
  • Non-Bleeding: Pigments do not migrate, ensuring clean lines in multi-color palettes.
  • Q: What does the E172 code mean?

    A: E172 is the European Union code for iron oxides approved for use as food-grade and cosmetic colorants.

  • Q: Are these pigments "Natural"?

    A: While chemically identical to natural rust, cosmetic oxides are synthesized to ensure they are free from the harmful heavy metals found in mined ores.

Formulation Support Services

We offer "Pre-Dispersed Cosmetic Slurries," providing our pigments in skin-compatible oils or esters for easier manufacturing.

Regulatory Documentation: We provide comprehensive dossiers, including COAs, MSDS, and Compliance Certificates for FDA and EU markets.

The Science of Trace-Element Control

The manufacturing of cosmetic-grade oxides relies on "Fractional Precipitation." By carefully controlling the pH and temperature during the reaction, we can force heavy metal impurities to precipitate out separately from the iron oxide. This scientific "Purification Cycle" is repeated multiple times to ensure that the final pigment meets parts-per-million (ppm) safety standards. This ensures that the pigment provides only color and no chemical risk to the end-user.
