A Novel Microfiber Wipe for Delivery of Active Substances to Human Skin: Clinical Proof of Concept.

A novel technology for the delivery of active substances to the skin based on microfibers loaded with dried active substances was developed. The objective of this work was to demonstrate deposition of the active substances on the skin including concurrent cleansing properties of the wipe. As model active substance to measure deposition capacity Niacinamide was used and as parameter to measure cleansing capacities of the wipe squalene uptake was measured.
