INCI: Beta vulgaris Root Powder

Beetroot Powder is a fine plant powder made from dried beetroot and used mainly as a botanical colourant and add-in for DIY skincare, hair care, soaps, and bath products. It gives pink to berry-toned colour and adds visual warmth to masks, scrubs, and body blends. This is a raw powder ingredient rather than a ready-to-use cosmetic product, so it is blended into a suitable base before use. Natural pigments may shift or fade depending on the formula type.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock Beetroot Powder because it brings an easy botanical colour lift to DIY projects without relying on synthetic dyes. It is especially useful when a formula needs a more natural pink-to-berry tone and a fresh visual feel.

This product is certified: Beauty Without Cruelty, Vegan, and Food Safe.
