Question
How can I make a lip balm pink? What cosmetic-grade colorants can be used to achieve a pink color, and how can the shade be adjusted?
Answer
To adjust the color of your lip balm to pink, you should add cosmetic-grade colorants. As suggested, you can use red pigments like FD&C Red No. 6 Lake or FD&C Red No. 7 Lake and combine them with Titanium Dioxide (a white pigment). By adjusting the ratio of the red pigment to Titanium Dioxide, you can achieve different shades of pink.
