Beta-Carotene is an excellent skin care ingredient, serving as an antioxidant and precursor to vitamin A, thus is frequently referred to as provitamin A. It's a wonderful skin conditioning ingredient and is also used as a cosmetic colorant. Beta carotene is unstable at 100% and thus this powder is 20% beta carotene. This blend of 80% Propanediol and 20% Beta Carotene offers a stable, easy-to-use delivery system for incorporating natural antioxidant color into topical cosmetic formulations. Beta Carotene, a plant-derived carotenoid and provitamin A compound, provides a vibrant golden-orange hue and supports product positioning focused on antioxidant-rich or naturally pigmented skin and hair care. Propanediol, a 100% bio-based solvent and humectant, acts as the carrier, helping to solubilize and evenly disperse the pigment while also contributing to skin conditioning and preservation-boosting effects.

While some of our stock products can be customized with scents, additives, etc., at-home customization should be done at your own risk. We are not liable for formulas that break as a result of customer alterations.
