Vitamin A skin penetration

Article Abstract:

Vitamin A and its various forms are fortified into cosmetic products due to their pharmacodynamic capabilities, which boost correct skin metabolism and maintain the skin's excellent condition. The effectiveness of Vitamin A in improving the skin condition of users of dermatologic applications and cosmetics, however, is dependent on the degree of Vitamin A absorption by users' skin. The appropriate selection of a vehicle for the skin's Vitamin-A absorption is crucial to optimize the pharmacodynamic benefits offered by Vitamin A.
