Performance & Formulation Insights for Majestic Watermelon

Achieving Saturated, True Matte Color

Majestic Watermelon leverages the high color-purity of D&C Red 7 Lake bonded to a natural mica substrate. This combination provides a non-shimmery, intensely saturated red hue with a classic matte finish.

The optimized 11–60 µm particle size ensures a smooth feel and excellent blendability, mitigating the chalkiness sometimes associated with matte pigments and enabling rich, bold tones across multiple systems.

Key Regulatory & Formulation Advantages

This pigment is a high-performance option for formulators seeking a TiO2-free red while maintaining strong payoff and stability.

Due to its D&C Red 7 Lake content, Majestic Watermelon is approved for use in lip, face, and nail products in the United States, but it is not permitted for use in the eye area. This makes it an ideal, compliant choice for vibrant lipsticks and blushes for US and global markets.
