NATURAL, VIBRANT, AND HIGH PERFORMING INGREDIENTS FOR COLOR COSMETICS

A Natural Formulator's Guide – Color Cosmetics Edition

The bold return of color cosmetics is upon us. Tiktokers are playing with color in both minimal chic and retro bold styles alike, and while these looks are vastly different, the demand for cosmetic brands to develop high performing, natural, and transparent products is transcendent across color trends.

Background

Consumers are now more than ever seeking education and clarity around the ingredients they both put in and on their bodies. This conscientiousness for healthy, safe and high performing products extends into their cosmetic routines. Formulating with natural and sustainable ingredients has become a must within personal care products, and that greatly includes color cosmetics!
