Liposomes for Cosmetics

CD Bioparticles offers both products and services to support cosmetic formulation development. In cosmetics, since skin is the first defensive barrier against external factors and prevents many substances from entering the underlying layers or systemic circulation, there are some limitations to deliver the active ingredient to the target site. By using liposomes, we are able to overcome some restrictions such as low penetration, solubility, stability, duration of effect and high side effects or costs, and improve some other characteristics. Liposome-encapsulation largely reduces the amount of the active ingredient required for effectiveness as compared to non-encapsulated, pure active ingredients.

Examples of such encapsulated functional ingredients include

• Resveratrol
• THC
• Vitamin A Palmitate
• Vitamin C
• Curcumin
• Alpha Lipoic Acid
• Vitamin A, E & K
• Coenzyme Q10
• Azelaic Acid
• Soy Isoflavones
• Phenylethyl Resorcinol
• Vitamin E
• Ferulic acid
• Phytosterol
• Lutein
• Salicylic acid
• Retinaldehyde
• Ceramide

The challenges you might meet:

• FDA GRAS grade materials for high safety
• Liposome manufacturing in bioactive and cosmetic grade
• Stable to heat, pH and shearing
• Improvable stability and bioavailability, facilitating absorption
• Amphiphilic nanoliposomes: water soluble and oil soluble
• Moisturization, restoring action, biodegradability, biocompatibility and extended and slow dermal release
• Manufacturing of nano liposomes: various sizes (30 to 70 nanometers) and production scales (mL to large scale) are available.
