Liposome creams

We strive to preserve youth, or at least look younger than their years, which every woman tries to keep silent about, and it happens that she is disingenuous, reducing her age. Everyone has long known that not only a healthy lifestyle, but also the right cosmetics will help to achieve the best results for preserving youth and beauty. Cosmetologists try their best to help us with this, and sometimes they work wonders. One such miracle is liposome cream.

And so, liposome cream.
In the 60s of the last century, the American scientist Bang Ham drew attention to the behavior of one of the components of the living cell of the phospholipid lecithin in water. It turns out that the molecules of this component, interacting with each other, could form closed hollow microspheres (liposomes), very similar in their properties and structure to the cell membrane of any organism.

Thus, it turned out that the liposome can be an ideal "container" for the transfer of biologically active substances: vitamins, herbal extracts, amino acids, etc., necessary for the body. In other words, the empty space inside the liposome can be filled with any substance.

Liposomes are created artificially from phospholipids, then "loaded" with biologically active substances and introduced into the base of the cream. The liposomes themselves differ from each other in size: from 0.03 microns to 100 microns and in properties. Liposomes actively affect the body's cell, and this activity depends on their properties. And most importantly, liposomes transfer the active substances with which they are saturated to the cell.

Christian Dior and L'Oreal began developing a line of liposomal products in the mid-1980s.

In Russia, the first liposomal creams - gels with vitamins A and E were released in 1992 by the Nizar company.

Liposome creams really have miraculous power, since, penetrating deep into the skin, down to the subcutaneous tissue, liposomes are destroyed and begin to interact with skin proteins and lipids of cell membranes. Yes, they are really capable of delivering moisturizers or biologically active substances to the skin in this way. They bind to the keratin of the skin, and thus create a protective layer on the skin's surface, which reduces the loss of moisture. In addition to all that has been said, the liposome cream reduces the irritating effect of the preservatives included in the cream.

You will see the result of the action of such creams in two weeks. And it is true. In conventional traditional creams, biologically active substances are in a dissolved state, so their effect on the skin is much weaker and more superficial.

You will look younger right before our eyes. But ... it's not that simple.

These creams can only be used by women who are 40+. What does it mean? If a girl at the age of 20 begins to use such a cream, and to some extent it can be compared with hormonal drugs, then what creams should she use when she is 30+? The skin gets used to receiving such supplements from outside. But at the age of 20, the body itself has its own natural reserves and copes with many problems, just not to interfere with bad habits such as smoking and excessive alcohol, lack of sleep and eating only chips.

You need to take care of your skin regularly, starting with cleansing with lotions, emollient creams, then nourishing ones. If all this is passed, and the results are not pleasing to you, then move on to stronger means, that is, to creams with liposomes. Women who are 40+ can use these creams if the skin has already begun to fade. Just read the annotation carefully, which biologically active substances are included in the liposomes, perhaps in your case you need some specific ones, and not those that are included in this composition.

And so, in order to use a cream with liposomes, you must have an age behind your shoulders and know exactly what your skin needs. But there are other limitations as well. What are they? - You are all right with your health, are there any skin diseases? If hair grows on the chin or so-called "mustache", then these creams should not be used or very carefully, as they can stimulate the growth of unwanted facial hair.

If there are no restrictions for you, then use it, but within two weeks, then a break of two or three months, and start a new cycle again.

Thanks to new technologies in the field of cosmetology, any chemical substances can be placed in the liposome: moisturizing complexes, vitamins, antiseptics or phytohormones.

1. Anti-aging liposomal creams. The enzyme that prevents cell aging is coenzyme Q10, which inhibits the process of cell aging and also removes fine wrinkles. However, if “Q10” is written on the tube, but “liposomes” are not indicated, then you should not expect a quick and miraculous effect. There are creams that contain the best antioxidant - vitamin E, which has a rejuvenating effect. But the fact is that under the influence of oxygen, it quickly oxidizes, and the expected result is nullified. This will not happen in creams with liposomes - they will deliver vitamin E to the destination safe and sound.

2. Creams with liposomes for sensitive and dehydrated skin. In this case, liposomes deliver protein molecules to the deep layers of the skin, which cannot independently penetrate deep into the skin, as well as vitamin C or oils.

3. Moisturizers with liposomes are the most effective. Regular moisturizers and serums work only on the surface layers of the skin. Liposomal moisturizers provide long-term (up to 72 hours) skin hydration.

Choice of liposome cream and shelf life

1. The liposome cream should have a light, semi-liquid consistency.

2. Choose a cream in a small container, as liposomes are quickly destroyed, and you will have to use, as already mentioned, two weeks with a break of two to three months.

3. The cream should be in a tube or in a glass bottle with a dispenser. This packaging of the product will prevent contact with air and oxidation of the cream.

4. Store the cream in the refrigerator at a temperature of + 5 ° C - + 15 ° C.

5. Shelf life - no more than 12 months. Further, the liposomal structure is destroyed. All the contents end up in the cosmetic, and a new chemical compound is formed, which will not give the desired results. Therefore, always pay attention to the date of production of the cosmetic product.

Today, cosmetic products with liposomes are considered one of the most promising areas in the beauty industry.
