What do you think the reaction of cosmetics after applying on the skin?
What do you think about the reaction of cosmetics after applying on the skin?
There are two action after applying skincare products and cosmetics.
1.      Absorption
After applying skincare products and cosmetics, some substances will go through the stratum corneum and reach the deeper epidemis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue.
2.      Adsorption
After applying skincare products and cosmetics, the substances will stay at stratum corneum only.

The cosmeceuticals take effect by percutaneous absorption. The main function of skin is to provide barriers to prevent the stimulations from the environments. It also adjusts the water and heat loss of the body. Such that the cosmeceuticals need to go through the stratum corneum.

Stratum corneum contains flat and dead cells and lipids. The lipids are ceramide, cholesterol, fatty acid, triglceride, and the other grease.

UVA andUVB Sun protection factor SPF is Sun Protection Factor. The number is determined experimentally indoors by exposing human subjects to a light spectrum meant to mimic noontime sun.   The SPF number only relates to UVB protection.  UVA is measured by the other definition.  UVA protection is not measured through SPF numbers.  PA is the Japanese measurement of sun protection. It is one of protection grade of UVA  . UVA is based on the Persistent Pigment Darkening (PPD) reaction reading at 2-4 hours of sun exposure.  PA is a protective level of strength to mark the three PA+, PA++ and PA+++. SPF(sun protection factor) Standard: ISO 2444: 2010 cosmetic sun protection test method in vivo determination of SPF (sun protection factor) Test by erythema Minimal dose: MED (minimal erythema dose) Process: exposure to the UV (wave length 290-400nm) Test skin type: type I~ III (ITA 0 >28 0 ) Duration: 16-24hrs after exposure UVA-PF (UVA protection factor)

79.The roles of Vitamin in skin

The roles of Vitamin in skin As we know, the chemical changes induced by exposure to sunlight, we should be able to design a cosmeceutical regime to combat photodamage and reverse its effects. Vitamin molecules are the options and have the functions of metabolism, antioxidant and preventing free radical. 1.       Metabolism Vitamin A controls the conversion of pre–matrix metalloproteinases secreted by keratinocytes and fibroblasts into active matrix metalloproteinases, but with a deficiency of vitamin A, UV irradiation stimulates the unimpaired release of metalloproteinases that then destroy collagen and the anchoring fibrils. Without vitamin A, the rete pegs become flattened. Lang erhans cells need vitamin A to function, but if the vitamin A is inactivated by light, then they cannot function properly and recognize cells whose DNA has been damaged. 2.       Antioxidant Deficiencies of vitamin C permit more free radical damage . The main action of vitamin C is as an
