ALMOND OIL BASED OLEOGELS AS COSMETIC BASES FOR LIPOSOLUBLE SUN-SCREENING AGENT BEMOTRIZINOL: IN-VITRO CHARACTERIZATION AND PHOTOSTABILITY
Skin exposure to acute or repetitive ultraviolet light induces major skin risks; an efficient photoprotection is thus required for both UVB and UVA radiation. The aim of this work was to formulate and evaluate oleogels as cosmetic bases containing 2% w/w of the liposoluble sunscreening agent bemotrizinol aiming to obtain an effective photoprotective, photostable and water resistant product thereby...

FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF NANOPARTICLE BASED SUNSCREEN
The aim of the current study was to formulate silymarin into nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) to enhance its sun screening efficacy and safety. NLCs of silymarin were prepared by the high pressure homogenization. A complete 32 factorial design was used for the formulation and evaluation of the prepared silymarin NLCs. The study design involves the investigation of the effect of two independent...
