A note on natural colorants and the FDA

Natural colorants like this one are widely used in soap and personal care, but they aren't an FDA-approved color additive. Because of that, FDA rules require us to list them as not approved for each use above. That doesn't mean they're unsafe. It only means the FDA hasn't approved them as a colorant. See the FDA's list of approved color additives
