I believe the stain is achieved using mostly D&C colors (Red 27, Yellow 5, etc.).

They are basically castor oil dispersion, and milled in a triple roller mill to have a spec free usage in the final product.
By base you mean the lipstick or lip gloss base????? -

Lip stain lip gloss and lipstick. is a combination of castor and wax with pigment, dyes and special effect micas and chemicals such as polymers etc.the rule of thumbs 20% Beeswax •25% solid at room temperature oil (Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Shea Butter, Lanolin, etc.) •15% brittle at room temperature oil (Regular Cocoa Butter, Palm Kernel Oil, etc.) •40% liquid oil at room temperature (Sweet Almond Oil, Olive Oil, Avocado Oil, etc.)the formuala must equal 100.so you can have the 40 percent be polyisobutene or triglyceride etc.in this formula of 100 you also must add in the amount of pigment , TIO etc.Generally you haveEmoilliantsstructurethickenerspolymerscolorfragranceantioxidant vitamin e, rose mary extract etc.preservative such as optphen etcyou can find product atmaking cosmetics.tkbetcI AM A NURSE NOT A CHEMIST -
