Chocolate Fat-Soluble Colorant: Rich Hues for Your Cosmetic Creations
Unleash the power of deep, decadent color with our Chocolate Fat-Soluble Colorant, an exceptional liquid pigment sourced from the United Kingdom. Designed for superior performance in both the food and cosmetic industries, this dark chocolate hue offers unparalleled vibrancy and stability. Its unique fat-soluble nature ensures seamless integration into oil-based formulations, delivering consistent, streak-free results without migration, making it an indispensable asset for crafting visually stunning products.
Description and Key Features
The Chocolate Fat-Soluble Colorant is a liquid pigment engineered for flawless integration into fatty bases. Unlike water-soluble dyes, this colorant disperses effortlessly in oils and fats, preventing clumping and ensuring an even, uniform coloration. Its primary advantages lie in its ability to eliminate uneven coloring and prevent color migration, which often leads to undesirable spotting or bleeding on product surfaces. This ensures a professional and consistent finish every time. Furthermore, this colorant boasts bright, rich colors and remarkable resistance to chemical influences, temperature variations, and light exposure, guaranteeing long-lasting vibrancy and product stability. It's a testament to high-quality pigment technology, providing both aesthetic appeal and reliability.

- Allows for the creation of smudge-proof and long-lasting eye makeup, as it resists migration on the eyelid.
- Foundations and Concealers (Cream/Oil-Based):
- Can be used to adjust the undertone or depth of cream or oil-based foundations and concealers, helping to achieve a perfect match for warmer skin tones or to create contouring shades.
- Its non-migratory property ensures consistent color application without patchy results.
- Bronzers and Highlighters (Cream Formulations):

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, lip balm tubes/pots) using isopropyl alcohol or a sanitizing solution. Allow everything to air dry completely.
- Melt Phase A: In a heat-safe beaker or double boiler, combine the shea butter, cocoa butter, beeswax, and sweet almond oil. Gently heat over low heat until all ingredients are completely melted and clear, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from Heat: Once melted, remove the beaker from the heat source.
- Add Colorant: While the mixture is still liquid and warm, add the Chocolate Fat-Soluble Colorant. Start with 0.5% and add more in tiny increments until you achieve your desired shade of brown. Stir continuously until the color is evenly dispersed and no streaks are visible.
- Add Vitamin E & Flavor (Optional): Add the Vitamin E oil and, if using, the peppermint essential oil. Stir well to incorporate.
- Pour into Containers: Immediately and carefully pour the hot liquid lip balm into your prepared lip balm tubes or small pots. Work quickly as the balm will start to solidify.
- Cooling: Allow the lip balms to cool completely and solidify at room temperature for several hours (or in the refrigerator for faster setting). Do not cap until fully solidified.
- Cap & Label: Once completely solid, cap your lip balms and label them.
Recommendations for Use:
- Dosage of Colorant: The recommended dosage for the Chocolate Fat-Soluble Colorant in lip products is typically between 0.5% to 1.5%, but always perform a small test batch to achieve your desired intensity. Start with a lower amount and gradually add more until you reach the desired color.
- Even Dispersion: Ensure the colorant is fully dissolved and evenly dispersed in the fat/oil phase to prevent specks or streaks in the final product. Stir well after adding.
- Temperature Sensitivity: While the colorant is stable, avoid overheating the entire lip balm mixture for prolonged periods, as this can degrade other sensitive ingredients.
- Storage: Store finished lip balms in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their consistency and color vibrancy.
- Packaging: This tinted lip balm is perfect for standard lip balm tubes or small cosmetic jars.
- Customization: Feel free to experiment with other fat-soluble additives like cosmetic-grade shimmers or other essential oils for different flavors and effects, always ensuring they are suitable for lip application.
