penetration enhancers

The skin provides a physical barrier to the harmful effects of the external environment. In so doing, it also interferes with the absorption of active ingredients for skin care. Arlasolve DMI (dimethyl isosorbide) and alpha bisobola natural, are two penetration enhancers that increase transdermal delivery of cosmeceuticals. Gels and creams with a Lamellar or liquid crystal structure also enhance penetration of active ingredients.
