Magenta oxide (or magenta-toned iron oxides) and related magenta-hued cosmetic-grade pigments, such as Mica Magenta, are used to add vibrant, durable color to a wide range of cosmetics and personal care products. They are particularly valued for their ability to produce intense, stable pinks and purples in makeup. Handling fine oxides such as this can clump in your formula. Experienced formulators will mix the pigment with a small amount of batch material prior to mixing in a big batch. Magenta oxide in cosmetics usually refers to a magenta/pink iron oxide pigment blend used as a colorant in skincare, makeup, and soap.
