How do you list your pigments?

[Paintguru]

How is everyone that sells listing out the components of the pigments/colorants? Do you list each specific one (iron oxide, chromium oxide, solvent yellow 172, etc.), or do you just say "pigment"? Some of the ones I got from TKB have like 4-5 components to just one color, and that makes for a super long ingredients list.

I list them the way the supplier lists the ingredients. If it is iron oxide, I list it as iron oxide, if it is an ultramarine, I list it as that. If the pigment is liquid and mixed with glycerin, I add glycerin along with the name of the pigment. If a colorant has several components, I list them in order.

I can't imagine making a 5-7 color rainbow with some of these TKB pigments!! I'll have a novel written on the back of my bars!

Some of the micas share ingredients so the list won't be as long as you think.
