Artificial Colors in Lip Gloss

Produce intense, consistent, and long-lasting colors at low cost. Natural colorants are harder to stabilize and achieve the same vibrancy.

In our database, 11 lip gloss products contain Artificial Colors as a flagged ingredient. The actual number on the market is likely much higher, as our database covers major brands but not every product available.

Risk depends on exposure route and frequency. Lip Gloss products are applied directly to the lips, where ingredients are ingested through eating and drinking. Daily lip product use means regular ingestion of synthetic dyes. Choose products with mineral or plant-based pigments.

Look for lip gloss products that use iron oxides, mica, titanium dioxide instead of Artificial Colors. Numbrrrz lip balm uses only organic, food-grade ingredients and contains zero flagged chemicals.
