Lipid coating process

A lipid coating refers to a layer of lipids (fats or fats-like substances) surrounding the active ingredient. Lipids are organic compounds that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Lipid coatings are used in the industry to enhance the durability and efficacy of formulation. Skincare products like lotions and serums often include active chemicals prone to instability and rapid degradation upon exposure to air or light. Lipid coating these components enhances their stability, resulting in a more effective and durable product. Lipid coatings may enhance the transportation of active ingredients to the skin. The lipids in the coating may permeate the skin's epidermis, transporting the active ingredient. This may enhance the absorption and efficacy of the lotion, leading to improved skin health and look.
