Background

MultiSal™ Retinol is a controlled delivery system consisting of stabilized retinol for skin care applications.; Retinol has been utilized extensively as an anti-wrinkle therapy. The molecule acts by inducing glycosaminoglycan and collagen synthesis, thus rejuvenating the firmness and youthful appearance of skin.; A challenge regarding the use of retinol is its susceptibility to oxidation, which ultimately reduces the potency and limits the effectiveness of the active. Moreover, because of its ability to enhance skin turnover, retinol can cause irritation on consumers with sensitive skin.

HIGHLIGHTS

The challenge with retinol is that it is extremely unstable and easily degrades when exposed to light and air and it can irritate the skin.; Encapsulation makes it suitable for consumers with sensitive skin. Slow release minimizes the side effects associated with retinol (irritation, erythema or dermatitis).; Easy to formulate by improving the compatibility and distribution of retinol in typical lotions used in skin care.; Enhances stability by maximizing the potency and effectiveness of retinol due to retaining the retinol potency in the lotion over storage time.
