No idea if this is the right section to post in...

Anywho...

Can anyone please tell me whats the difference between iron oxide & charcoal?

Many thanks

 

Iron oxide is rust and charcoal is carbon.

Are you asking about the amount of carbon in steel?

Makeup? Like the thing you smear on your face or is this something else.

 

Lol, yeah the stuff you put on your face - lots of natural and organic makeup companies use CI 77499 (IRON OXIDE) or activated charcoal.

I wanted to know the difference and which was safer for around eyes =)

From what I have searched it seems that iron oxide seems to be safer than activated charcoal.

But you can reduce all of your risks to 0% if you don't wear any makeup. I am certain your face is fair without any harsh chemicals on them.

Everything is made of chemicals and the point of that list was to show you all the chemicals that make up a real blueberry.

 

if you get food grade quality of either powder you should be ok. I think they are pretty stable and inert-ish chemicals for your use. Skin drying might be the main issue with one or both though.
