Multiple Response Optimization of Beeswax-Based Nanostructured Lipid Carriers for the Controlled Release of Vitamin E.

Consumer demand for cosmetics is growing, causing a need to develop new systems to release active ingredients. Among these, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have certain advantages regarding penetration of active compounds in the skin. The study reported here aimed to develop an NLC system for controlled release of vitamin E, a substance that has antioxidant and photoprotective properties.
