Is there any time where taking carotenoids is a bad idea?

Title, im talking about beta carotene, lycopene and astaxanthin even with something like type 1 skin or a specific undertone

no?

if you are a smoker its pretty unadvisable to take betacarotene supplements, ive also read about astaxanthin potentially lowering dht serum levels by a bit, so not a good idea to take if you are still developing, and i dont know anything about lycopene
