VIOLA ROUGE is for the modern beauty enthusiast who is intrigued by the unknown and curious to explore new places — all while living out their own unique beauty statement no matter where they go or what they experience. Whether you're a beginner or an expert to the world of cosmetics, whether your makeup bag carries one brush or too many to count, Viola Rouge is your trusted guide.

Every hue crafted by VIOLA ROUGE is designed to fit any undertone, from the fairest to the deepest, thanks to our true color-matching product design. Every cosmetic from VR is designed to match your skin’s natural undertone, complementing your natural complexion without overpowering its hue with the intensity of harsh pigments.

The Badali family has created some of the most beloved cosmetics for the worlds' favorite makeup and skin care brands. Out of a passion to create, the Badali’s expanded their one-of-a-kind formulations into a business that included greater manufacturing oversight, ensuring that clients received only the highest levels of quality control.

Throughout these initial stages, the Badali family never lost sight of their ultimate dream: to create their own makeup brand. After years of cultivating and refining unparalleled expertise in beauty product development with thorough ingredient research and the inspiration drawn from personal travels, VIOLA ROUGE was born.

Does Viola Rouge support any charities?

VIOLA ROUGE was founded on a commitment to giving back. We believe everything is connected, and it’s the responsibility of companies (including ours) to do their part in protecting people, animals and the planet as well as supporting those who are underserved or at-risk.

We’re honored to support and to partner this year with the One Tree Planted global reforestation program. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the One Tree Planted mission is to reforest and revitalize the planet, one tree at a time. The organization also raises awareness about the importance of trees, offers businesses like ours a simple yet significant sustainability solution, and motivates younger generations to make positive choices that benefit and preserve the natural environment.

One Tree Planted has established international reforestation initiatives throughout North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and Australia.

To support their efforts in environmental sustainability, for every 20 tubes of lipstick sold, Viola Rouge vows to plant a tree in whichever country needs support the most. To learn more and to support the One Tree Planted mission, please visit their website at www.OneTreePlanted.org.

We are constantly evaluating other organizations to support and collaborate with in their charitable causes, environmental efforts, cause-driven campaigns. We will be announcing these new partnerships on an ongoing basis as they are selected. If you are a nonprofit interested in working with VIOLA ROUGE, please contact us directly today.

 

Pick Your Perfect Shade

At Viola Rouge, when we say beauty is a journey, we also mean that there's the perfect set of shades for every undertone, no matter how light or deeply rich your skin’s pigmentation may be.

Take our quiz to learn your true underlying undertone and the VIOLA ROUGE shades at https://www.violarougecosmetics.com/pages/pick-your-perfect-shade.

The shades are organized by skin undertone and quiz results are organized into these undertone categories:

• Pink
• Blue
• Red
• Green
• Yellow

As with any cosmetics quiz, the results are based on general assumptions and only you can decide whether the recommended shades fit your signature fashion statements or work well with your skin pigmentation plus skin undertone. We also recognize that shopping for color cosmetics online can be a bit of a challenge given that every device renders color differently, which is why we offer a 30-day risk-free guarantee if you’re not 100% satisfied with your purchase.

What is Clean Beauty?

Here’s what we at VIOLA ROUGE know to be true about clean beauty:

• Research shows that serious health issues such as hormone disruption, cancer, and skin irritation are on the rise, and exposure to toxic and synthetic chemicals is a likely contributor.
• Many manufactured chemicals on the market, including those used in the beauty industry, don’t have any safety data associated with them.
• The personal care industry is largely unregulated by modern standards because it is not updated to reflect our current technology or product manufacturing processes. Federally, the last piece of regulation designed to monitor personal care products was passed in 1938 which means that many cosmetic companies can essentially say and do whatever they want, with minimal government oversight.
• However, first established in 1986, California’s Proposition 65, has become a resource to increase consumer safety towards any chemicals identified in products to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity by first giving the consumer a clear and reasonable warning of the chemicals’ harm. Therefore, OEHHA is responsible to publish and update the Proposition 65 list of harmful chemicals at least once a year. As of now, OEHHA’s list of harmful chemicals has accounted for more than 900 substances that are banned or restricted for use in cosmetics, making California a close second to Europe’s list of 1,300 banned or restricted chemicals.

Are your products animal tested?

No. Viola Rouge is Leaping Bunny certified, giving you confidence in our commitment to cruelty-free beauty.

 

Are your products gluten free?

Yes. Created with clean beauty in mind, VIOLA ROUGE is formulated without gluten, sulfates, phthalates, parabens, paraffin, mineral oil, talc, paraben, soy, sugar, and triclosan, among others.

 

What ingredient is holding you back from being vegan?

We use beeswax in our lipstick formulas. This is the only ingredient holding us back from being approved as a ‘vegan’ brand. However, it is important to note that we never test on animals and are certified cruelty-free by Leaping Bunny.

 

How is Viola Rouge makeup formulated?

VIOLA ROUGE is created with clean in mind, and we’ve stayed true to that mission to this day. What does clean beauty mean? It means we use only the finest and purest ingredients that meet our exceptionally high standards of health and safety. It means that our lipsticks, blushes, foundations, and all of our other cosmetics are created with your safety and health as our number-one priority.  

Therefore, our formulas have been tested for:

1. Heavy Metals (Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, Cadmium, Antimony)
2. Skin Irritation or In-Vitro Ocular Irritation (where applicable)
3. Parabens and Phthalates
4. Stability and Package Compatibility, and
5. Preservative Efficacy.

Every lot of product produced is tested for Micro Bacterial contaminants of all forms, and every lot of finished goods is physically inspected by our Quality Team to ensure it passes our strict Organoleptic tests, such as color, odor appearance, and application. 

Clean beauty also means we never do “dirty” business. Our ethical enterprise is supported by our commitment to working exclusively with international vendors, all of which support our core values of sustainability and consumer well-being. Each collection also includes a local ingredient from each country of origin, and we use only those ingredients that are known for their beauty benefits, safety, and efficacy.

Saffron is known as an antioxidant-rich detoxifier with tremendous skin care benefits. The carotenoids like zeaxanthin, lycopene, alpha and beta-carotene can help minimize the appearance of aging, while other nutrients such as potassium, iron, calcium and vitamins promote the appearance of balanced skin. We selected saffron as a foundational ingredient to ensure all VIOLA ROUGE products offer skin care support

Each collection features a local ingredient from each country known for its beauty benefits to help enhance and embed the beauty and enrichment of each culture into our line.
