Iron oxides are essential colorants in makeup, providing vibrant hues that makeup products would otherwise lack. At Omiana, we use iron oxides that are lab-made and purified to avoid natural impurities and heavy metal contamination like arsenic, mercury, cadmium, and nickel. This lab-produced variety offers a safer option for cosmetics. Our iron oxides are non-nanoparticle and non-micronized delivering natural gentle makeup designed for sensitive skin. We believe lab-created and tested iron oxides are the best way to color makeup. Here are the key benefits of using iron oxides in cosmetics:
