Which pigment is white and used in lip and body camouflage pigments?

• A. Titanium dioxide
• B. Carbon
• C. Iron oxide
• D. Organic pigments

Answer: (A)

Titanium dioxide is the white pigment used in lip and body camouflage pigments. It has very high opacity and stability, making it ideal for lightening and masking areas of discoloration or scar tissue in cosmetic applications. In permanent makeup and camouflage work, titanium dioxide acts as a reliable white base or brightener, helping to achieve an even, opaque appearance when mixed with other colors.

Other pigments don’t serve this role: carbon is a black pigment, iron oxide pigments come in red, yellow, and brown tones and are used for natural skin shades, and organic pigments span various colors but aren’t used to produce a true white in cosmetic camouflage.
