Liposomes, Nanocapsule, Solid Lipid Nanoparticles, NanocrystalsAbstract
Nanotechnology manifests the progression within stage of research and development, by increasing the efficacy of the merchandise through delivery of innovative solutions. to beat certain drawbacks associated with the traditional products, application of nanotechnology is escalating within the world of cosmeceuticals. In private care industry, cosmeceuticals are considered the fastest growing segment and thus the use has risen drastically over the years. Nanocosmeceuticals used for skin, hair, nail, and lip care, for conditions like wrinkles, photoaging, hyperpigmentation, dandruff, and hair damage, have inherit widespread use. Novel nanocarriers like nano emulsions, liposomes, microemulsions, niosomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanospheres and nanostructured lipid carrier have replaced the usage of conventional delivery system. These novel nanocarriers have advantages of controlled and sustained drug release, enhanced skin penetration, higher stability, high entrapment efficiency and site-specific targeting. However, nanotoxicological researches have indicated concern regarding the impact of increased use of nanoparticles in cosmeceuticals as there are possibilities of nanoparticles to penetrate through skin and cause health hazards. This review on nanotechnology utilized in cosmeceuticals highlights the various novel carriers used for the delivery of cosmeceuticals, marketed formulations, their positive and negative aspects, toxicity, and regulations of nanocosmeceuticals.
