In recent years, there has been a growing trend among consumers to seek natural and sustainable alternatives to synthetic ingredients in their cosmetics and skincare products. This includes a shift towards using natural botanical pigments in makeup and skincare, which are derived from plants, fruits, and minerals. Many consumers are concerned about the potential health risks associated with synthetic pigments, such as skin irritation or allergic reactions, as well as the environmental impact of their production and disposal. As a result, consumers actively seek out natural and plant-based alternatives to meet their beauty needs.
The desire for naturally-derived skincare and makeup extends far beyond just the ingredients used — it’s a movement called “Neo-natural” and it emphasizes on using natural and sustainable ingredients in skincare products, without sacrificing efficacy. This movement is a response to the increasing consumer demand for eco-friendly and non-toxic skincare products that deliver real results. Neo-natural skincare products typically contain ingredients that are plant-based, organic, cruelty-free, and sustainably sourced. These products are often free from harsh chemicals, such as parabens, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances, which can be harmful to both the skin and the environment. Instead, neo-natural skincare products focus on natural ingredients like botanical extracts, essential oils, and vitamins to nourish and rejuvenate the skin. The trend towards neo-natural skincare is not just a passing fad, but rather a movement towards a more conscious and sustainable approach to beauty.
Tapping on the neo-natural movement, Sensient Beauty has developed the NATPURE COLFINE pigments that are derived from plants, including purple potatoes, black carrot, beetroot, radish and turmeric. Three new shades are added to the NATPURE COLFINE 2nd Generation range — NATPURE COLFINE RED R323, RED 333 & ROSE P320 — extending the current shade offerings to nine.
2nd Generation of NATPURE COLFINE boasts:
- Enhanced stability
- Brighter appearance
- Less taste & odor
- Good consistency in mass and upon application
- Better resistant to humidity

Rose Mint Bath Salt
A real treat during a self-care sesh, the Rose Mint Bath Salt features the NATPURE COLFINE POPPY R311, a botanical pigment that adds a beautiful coral red color to the otherwise colorless sea salt.
