Beetroot Powder

Beetroot Powder is derived from the dried and milled roots of Beta vulgaris and owes its vivid pink-to-red hue to betalain pigments, specifically betacyanins, making it a popular natural alternative to synthetic red and pink colorants in cosmetics. Formulators choose it for lip products, blushes, and natural skincare formulations where clean-label, plant-based coloring is desired, often combined with its mild antioxidant properties from polyphenols and vitamin C content. Its color is pH-sensitive and can shift from vibrant red in acidic conditions to brownish tones at higher pH, requiring careful formulation to maintain stability and shade consistency.
