Which EasyMix™ Lake (Organic Pigment) powder number should I use? Or are there any other recommended color types?
Answer
Coloring Silicone Sunscreen Light Pink
To achieve a light pink color in your silicone-based sunscreen using EasyMix™ Lake (Organic Pigment) powders, you can consider the following options:
- D&C Red No.33 Lake EasyMix™: This is a suitable EasyMix™ Lake pigment that is compatible with oil and silicone bases. It is commonly used to create pink and red shades in cosmetic formulations. You would use a very small amount to achieve a light pink color.
- Fluorescent Pink Pigment: This is another option for a pink color. It is a dispersible pigment (meaning it won't dissolve but will spread throughout the formula) and provides a fluorescent pink shade. Keep in mind that fluorescent pigments give a brighter, more vivid look than standard pigments.
Both options are dispersible in silicone formulations. For a standard light pink, D&C Red No.33 Lake EasyMix™ is a good choice among the Lake pigments. Always start with a very low concentration and gradually increase until the desired shade is achieved.
