Why it’s in a formula
It gives a formula a natural blush of colour, and betanin is an antioxidant.
- Betanin is sensitive to light and heat, so a formula coloured with it can soften in shade over time.

Questions
Does beetroot stain skin?
In the small amounts used to tint a formula, no. Concentrated beetroot juice can leave a brief pink tint.
