What are the coloring agents in Jane Iredale cosmetics?
A. Jane Iredale colors mostly with iron oxides. Jane Iredale may use carmine or manganese violet in some of their pink loose base powders. Jane Iredale uses ultramarines (ground Lapis Lazuli, a blue mineral), chromium oxide green, and chromium hydroxide green in their blue and green eye shadows. Carmine is in So-Bronze 1 and So-Bronze 2, Cedar Rose Complete Color, Currant, Dubonnet, Barely Rose and Parfait blush, Ruby, Wine & Roses, Pink Smoke and the darkest color in Cloud 9 eye shadows. Vegans and those practicing Kosher will want to avoid the colors containing carmine.
