Skin Penetration Enhancers

What is a skin penetration enhancer?

Penetration enhancers (PEs) have been studied intensely and used for decades in the cosmetic industry. For instance, they are used to deliver active ingredients into the skin. PEs are excellent ingredients to certainly use in formulations.

The cosmetic formulator understands the challenge for cosmetics to penetrate the skin. When using PEs, penetration of the skin can therefore be enhanced. The cosmetic formulator is aware of the limits of a cosmetic. In addition, the formulator does not make unsubstantiated claims about the deeper layers of skin. A result of making these claims can be considered an OTC, over the counter drug.

Penetration Enhancers include:

Liposomes
Phospholipids
Non-ionic emulsifiers
Glycols
Glycerin
Ethanol

For example, one of the most promising delivery ingredients are colloidal carriers, colloidal particles. In addition, liposomes, phospholipids, and non-ionic surfactants (emulsifiers) are used to increase skin penetration and bioavailability of entrapped active ingredients with more efficacy and faster results.
