Understanding encapsulation technology in beauty industry

New Delhi, June 8 Have you ever bought a beauty product that has changed its smell and texture over time and wondered why does this happen? It happens because many active ingredients used in your product may lose their properties as time passes.

Truth be told, a significant number of cosmetics and personal care products often contain natural-origin active substances that are unstable and highly sensitive to light, temperature, pH and oxidation. Hence, these materials may undergo unwanted reactions that lead to the reduction of a product's effectiveness or even lead to degradation of certain cosmetic products. Furthermore, whenever an active ingredient degrades, there is a high possibility that these shall create an unwanted bio-chemical activity which can render toxic or irritating for the user's skin or body parts.
