Formulation view A dry loose powder featuring mica base with iron oxides, carmine, and titanium dioxide for color. Oil-free and lightweight, suitable for matte makeup or oily skin to control shine. Formulator's view: pure powder systems require careful pigment dispersion to prevent settling; carmine, a natural red, carries minor allergy risks for sensitive individuals.
