Findings
Meadowfoam seed oil works as well as castor oil and octyldodecanol at dispersing color pigments in lipstick, with similar particle sizes (6-9 µm) and wetting ability. The meadowfoam lipstick had the lowest friction and good hardness at 40% pigment concentration, though octyldodecanol gave the best color payoff overall.
