Zusammenfassung:Provided are low impact methods of creating concentrated water-in-oil and oil-in-water nanosized emulsions, effective therapeutic carriers for skin aging preparations. To achieve optimum multifunctional activity, ceramide and plant-based ceramides are selected to naturally mimic epidermal composition; and are made into evenly dispersed, small droplet, high-absorption skincare treatment emulsions. The water-in-oil emulsion is a highly stable, low-water ratio concentrate, of particular benefit to dry and aging skin types. The oil-in-water lipophilic emulsion maximizes lipid and nutrient release into the epidermis (stratum basale to stratum corneum). Lipophilic compositions are non-irritating and highly absorbable, resulting in superior skin health; specifically skin barrier keratinocyte, lipid and hydration improvements and aesthetic improvements, including skin smoothness and wrinkle reduction, while decreasing potential dermatitis and similar. Oil-in-water emulsions are achieved using a novel low-energy, low-cost flip phase methodology, in contrast to hot-stage high pressure homogenization techniques which yield inconsistent droplet sizes and are subject to oxidation.
