DEVELOPMENT AND ASSESSMENT OF HERBAL BLUSH POWDER INCORPORATING BEETROOT AND GREEN TEA

Abstract

Cosmetics play an important role in enhancing appearance and maintaining skin health, and there is an increasing demand for herbal cosmetic products due to their safety and minimal side effects. The present study was aimed at the formulation and evaluation of a herbal blushing powder using beetroot as a natural colouring agent. Beetroot, rich in natural pigments and antioxidants, was used along with green tea, acacia, citric acid, and talcum to prepare two herbal blush powder formulations (F1 and F2). The formulated products were evaluated for organoleptic properties, colour homogeneity, colour and physical stability, spreadability, flow properties, pH, and powder characteristics such as angle of repose, Carr’s index, and Hausner’s ratio. Both formulations showed satisfactory results with good colour uniformity, acceptable flow properties, suitable spreadability, and pH values within the normal skin range, indicating safety for topical application. Stability studies confirmed that the formulations remained stable without any significant changes over time. The study concludes that beetroot-based herbal blushing powder is a safe, effective, and economical alternative to synthetic blush products and has good potential for use in herbal cosmetic formulations.
