THE COLORING PIGMENT

Red algae. Lithothamnion calcareum

They contain a powerful pigment in their plastids. It was in the Bronze Age that the Sea Peoples learned to master its coloring power. The discovery of amphorae and faience pottery found in the famous Uluburun shipwreck in Turkey, testifies to its use in decoration. On the island of Okinawa, centenarians praise seaweed as a medicinal food for its richness in iodine and fiber. A precious marine source, red algae offers deep pink hues. Rich in minerals and polysaccharides, it contributes to skin hydration and protection.

Pantone: Reddish pink to burgundy

THE PROMISE OF EXCELLENCE

WHAT IS PLANT-BASED COLOUR?

+

Le Rouge Français se distingue en tant que pionnier mondial dans l’utilisation de pigments végétaux pour colorer ses produits de maquillage. Nous puisons dans une riche bibliothèque de centaines de plantes tinctoriales, sélectionnées pour leurs qualités colorantes uniques et leurs bienfaits biologiques. Comme la garance, le sorgho, l’indigo, la châtaigne de corse ou encore la rose de Damas. Ces plantes sont endémiques afin de préserver la biodiversité et l’économie locale des régions où elles sont cultivées.

WHY DO OTHER BRANDS USE PETROCHEMICALS?

+

99% de l’industrie utilise massivement les pigments de synthèse issus de la pétrochimie – dérivé de pétrole – ou au mieux du minéral mais dont la ressource n’est pas renouvelable. Ils sont très économiques, facile à fabriquer et reproduire. Si nous utilisons des pigments végétaux, c’est pour vous garantir une innocuité absolue, protéger votre peau et votre santé.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH TITANIUM DIOXIDE?

+

Le dioxyde de titane ou TiO2 est toujours autorisé comme ingrédient cosmétique sous sa forme micro-particule – taille des particules plus grande que nano-particule. Le dioxyde de titane a été banni de l’agroalimentaire depuis le 1er janvier 2020 pour un risque cancérigène avéré. Une femme ingérant en moyenne 4 kg de rouge à lèvres dans une vie, nous avons fait le choix de le retirer de toutes nos formules pour vous garantir une sécurité absolue.
