Application of Nanoparticles in Cosmetics

Application of Nanoparticles in Cosmetics

The present review aims to study a promising area of Nanoparticles used in various cosmetic products like Deodorant, Soap, Toothpaste, Shampoo, Hair conditioner, Anti-wrinkle cream, Moisturizer, Foundation, Face powder, Lipstick, Blush, Eye shadow, Nail polish, Perfume and After-shave lotion etc. In particular, NLCs have been identified as a potential next generation cosmetic delivery agent that can provide enhanced skin hydration, bioavailability, stability of the agent and controlled occlusion.

Nanoparticles are synthesized by various techniques are Sol–gel Method, Vacuum Deposition Method, Ball Milling Method, Pyrolysis etc. Characterization of Nanoparticles is must necessary in order formulate Nanocosmeticeuticals. Many methods are used for their evaluation and they are High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), but the core dimensions can also be determined using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS), a Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry (LDI-MS), and X-ray Diffraction, Transmission Electron Microscopy etc. The studies proved that the developed Nanoparticles in cosmetics have potential in term of industrial feasibility. Keywords: Nanoparticles, Nanocosmeceuticals, Sol-gel Method
