Beta Carotene

Description

Beta Carotene is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment responsible for the orange color found in many fruits and vegetables such as carrots and pumpkins. In cosmetic formulations, it is valued for its strong antioxidant properties, helping to protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental factors like pollution and UV exposure. It also acts as a natural colorant, giving formulations a light yellow to orange hue. Because it is oil-soluble, Beta Carotene is commonly incorporated into oil-based products, emulsions, and balms, where it contributes both functional antioxidant protection and aesthetic color enhancement.
