What’s the Difference Between Organic, Inorganic, and Hybrid Pigments in Micropigmentation?
When it comes to micropigmentation, choosing the right pigment is key to achieving optimal and safe results. In this article, we’ll explain the differences between organic, inorganic, and hybrid pigments, how to identify them using the Color Index (CI), and why our hybrid lines are an excellent choice for your procedures.
What Are Organic Pigments?
Organic pigments are primarily composed of carbon compounds. These pigments are known for their color intensity and vibrancy. Being more saturated, they offer vivid results, making them ideal for:
• Lips: Where bold, intense colors are in high demand.
• Eyeliner: For defined and deep lines.
Advantages:
• High intensity and saturation.
• Bright and vibrant results.
Disadvantages:
• Higher tendency to migrate if not applied correctly.
Identification in the Color Index:
Organic pigments usually have a Color Index (CI) that starts between numbers 1 and 5.
What Are Inorganic Pigments?
Inorganic pigments are composed mainly of iron oxides and other minerals. These pigments are more opaque and tend to have natural tones, making them ideal for:
• Brows: Earthy, natural tones.
• Scalp Micropigmentation: Where a subtle, realistic effect is desired.
Advantages:
• Lower risk of migration.
• Natural appearance.
Disadvantages:
• Less intense colors.
• May oxidize over time, slightly altering the tone.
Why Choose Our Hybrid Lines?
Our hybrid lines are formulated to provide:
• Consistent results across a wide range of tones.
• Certified and safe pigments.
• Designed to meet the needs of both beginner and expert artists.
How to Identify Organic, Inorganic, or Hybrid Pigments Using the Color Index (CI)?
The Color Index (CI) is an international classification that identifies the compounds used in pigments. By reviewing the label or technical sheet of a pigment, you can identify its composition:
• Organic Pigments: Usually have a CI starting between numbers 1 and 5 (e.g., Red 22 Lake or Yellow 14 CI 21095).
• Inorganic Pigments: Often contain iron oxides, titanium dioxide, or ultramarines (e.g., CI 77491, CI 77891).
• Hybrid Pigments: Include a combination of both, showing references to organic and inorganic compounds in the same formulation.
Choosing the right pigment is essential to ensure client satisfaction and procedural quality. Our hybrid pigment lines not only offer versatility and long-lasting results but are also formulated to meet the highest standards in the industry.
