Managing Product Quality “This innovative cloth mask contains Nanosomes of Pro-Retinol A® and Par-Elastyl™ to firm skin and fight against the signs of aging. It’s infused with 7X your daily dosage of anti-wrinkle moisturizer, so you get a week’s worth of treatment in just 10 minutes.” “The nanosome is used in particular to transport lipophilic active ingredients, that is those that are soluble in oil. Given that the interstices of the outer layer of skin measure about 100 nanometers, nanovectors offer the best solution to the problem of transporting and concentrating active ingredients in the skin.” “The effectiveness of nanosomes and the superiority of vitamin E protection when it is incorporated into nanoparticles have been demonstrated in vivo.”
