BB Cream Color Formulation Examples

Creating the perfect shade for BB cream involves mixing different color pigments. As mentioned, there isn't one fixed formula, and you can adjust the proportions to match different skin tones.

Based on the product information, here are example color proportions for three different shades using EasyMix™ pigments and Titanium Dioxide FoundationPro™:

• Shade No. 1:

  • Titanium Dioxide FoundationPro™: 3 parts
  • Beige Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 1 part

• Shade No. 2:

  • Titanium Dioxide FoundationPro™: 3.73 parts
  • Beige Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 1 part
  • Yellow Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 0.68 parts
  • Black Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 0.017 parts

• Shade No. 3:

  • Titanium Dioxide FoundationPro™: 4.12 parts
  • Beige Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 1 part
  • Yellow Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 1.04 parts
  • Red Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 0.2 parts
  • Black Iron Oxides EasyMix™: 0.04 parts

These examples use Titanium Dioxide FoundationPro™ as the base white pigment for coverage and lightening, combined with Beige, Yellow, Red, and Black Iron Oxides EasyMix™ to create different skin tones.

Additionally, incorporating Mica Powder, such as Mica Powder (9 Micron, Silane Coated), can help improve texture, spreadability, and provide a smoother finish.

You can use these proportions as a starting point and adjust the amounts of each color pigment to achieve your desired shades, from lighter to darker and adjusting the undertones (more yellow, red, etc.) to match various skin tones.
