The demand for vivid, high-performing color in rinse-off beauty is rising—yet consumer scrutiny of ingredient safety has never been higher. Today’s formulator is expected to bridge that divide, offering color that captivates without compromise. Sensient’s latest innovation, SensiTint, responds to this evolving landscape with a range of next-generation colorants that deliver vibrancy, stability, and enhanced mildness—without the need for preservatives.
According to Mintel, the three most commonly used water-soluble dyes in new product launches over the past five years are Yellow 5 (CI 19140), Blue 1 (CI 42090), and Red 33 (CI 17200). All three are available in the SensiTint range, making it a relevant and versatile option for formulators looking to work with familiar, high-impact colorants in a liquid format.
