D&C RED 28 AL LAKE / LAVANYA TULIP
Our Cosmetic Lakes & Pigments are manufactured with unique proprietary technology to achieve extremely soft and fine particles. Particle size plays an important role in the final product incorporation. It also is a key factor to achieve consistency in shades.
Aluminium lakes are produced by the adsorption of water soluble dye onto a hydrated aluminium substrate rendering the color insoluble in water. The end product is colored either by dispersion of the lake into the product or by coating on to the surface of the product.
In general lakes are more stable than the corresponding water-soluble colors, producing brighter more vivid colors and are most suitable for products containing oils and fats, or products lacking sufficient moisture to dissolve Colors.
