About
Carrot root juice — orange, carotenoid-rich botanical used for skin conditioning and antioxidant support. Watch for the pigment, which can stain.
Daucus carota sativa (carrot root) juice is a skin-conditioning botanical rich in beta-carotene and other carotenoids (alpha-carotene, lutein), vitamin C, and natural sugars. In cosmetics it is promoted for antioxidant and radiance support. CosIng lists it as skin conditioning. No CIR monograph, but long culinary and cosmetic use history establishes a good safety baseline. The main practical concerns are the pigment (which can tint formulations and lightly stain fabrics/skin) and the need for robust preservation of the nutrient-rich juice. Rare Apiaceae-family contact allergy reports exist, cross-reactive with celery and mugwort pollen.
