What It Does
CARROT (Daucus carota) as an INCI-listed cosmetic ingredient is derived from the root of the carrot plant and is rich in beta-carotene, sugars, and moisture. In this context, however, the listed functions describe a culinary preparation rather than a cosmetic application — caramelization, Maillard reactions, and mirepoix are food-science processes with no recognized cosmetic equivalents. This entry appears to be a culinary recipe component that has been incorrectly entered into a cosmetic ingredient database.
