Bug juice is an actual ingredient in cosmetic for coloring. The female cochineal, when crushed after feeding on the pricky pear cacti, create a striking red color. The coloring is used in everything from lipstick to cosmetics with a reddish tint.
Besides, insects extract from silkworm and ants are also ingredients for body care products such as hair shampoo and face foundation. Though this product may have little effect on most, some have had serious allergic reactions to these insect extracts.
