Research has found that cosmetic pigments have various physiological activities that interact with biological systems and produce specific effects on the body or skin. Understanding the physiological activity of cosmetic pigments enables formulators to select pigments with specific properties to achieve the desired functional effects in cosmetics.
Daji Belle's ability to test the physiological activity of cosmetic pigments provides valuable insights into the functional properties, helping clients to develop innovative products that promote skin health, satisfy regulatory requirements, and meet consumer demand for versatile cosmetic formulations.
Services Content
As a leading service provider in the cosmetic pigment industry, offering physiological activity testing services, CD BioSciences provides a range of specialized services to evaluate the physiological effects and activity of cosmetic pigments. Here are some specific services we can offer in this area.
Antioxidant Activity Testing
We can assess the antioxidant potential of cosmetic pigments. Antioxidants protect cells from oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. Our testing methods measure the ability of pigments to scavenge free radicals and inhibit oxidative processes.
Anti-Inflammatory Activity Testing
We can evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of cosmetic pigments. Chronic inflammation can contribute to various skin disorders and aging processes. Our testing methods assess the ability of pigments to reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines and modulate inflammatory pathways.
Hydrating Activity Testing
We can analyze the moisturizing and hydrating properties of cosmetic pigments. Skin hydration is fundamental for maintaining skin health and appearance. Our testing methods evaluate the pigments' ability to retain moisture, enhance skin hydration, and improve the skin's barrier function.
Collagen Stimulation Testing
We can assess the ability of cosmetic pigments to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a key structural protein in the skin that provides firmness and elasticity. Our testing measures the pigments' capacity to promote collagen synthesis, helping to identify pigments that may benefit skin aging and elasticity.
Skin Barrier Function Testing
We can evaluate the impact of cosmetic pigments on the skin's barrier function, which is vital in protecting against external factors and maintaining optimal skin health. Our testing assesses the pigments' effects on skin barrier integrity, permeability, and the regulation of important biomarkers.
Common Natural Cosmetic Pigments and Their Physiological Activities
|
Type |
Details |
Beetroot Powder
 |
Beetroot powder is derived from the roots of the beet plant. It contains natural pigments called betalains, which provide vibrant red or pink colors. Beetroot powder is rich in antioxidants, particularly betacyanins, and betanin, which exhibit strong free radical scavenging activity. |
Turmeric
 |
Turmeric is derived from the rhizomes of the Curcuma longa plant. It contains a yellow pigment called curcumin. Curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory properties and is known for its ability to reduce inflammation and soothe skin conditions such as acne and eczema. It also exhibits antioxidant activity, helping to protect the skin from free radical damage. |
Annatto
 |
Annatto is derived from the seeds of the Achiote tree. It contains a natural orange-red pigment called bixin. Annatto is often used as a food colorant, but it can also be used in cosmetics. It possesses antioxidant properties. Additionally, annatto has been traditionally used to protect the skin from sun damage. |
Spirulina
 |
Spirulina is a blue-green algae with a rich concentration of pigments, including chlorophyll and phycocyanin. These pigments provide green and blue-green colors. Spirulina is known for its antioxidant activity, helping to combat free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative damage. |
