The Cosmeceuticals Market Includes A Wide Range Of Cosmetic Products With Drug-Like Properties.

 

Cosmeceuticals are products with both cosmetic and medicinal properties (medical or drug-like effects) that are intended to improve skin health and beauty. These products are similar to cosmetics in that they are applied topically as creams or lotions, but they contain an active ingredient that affects the functions of skin cells. Some cosmeceutical products' actions are limited to skin care (for example, exfoliants), whereas others can penetrate to deeper levels, either enhancing or limiting normal skin functions. Cosmeceutical products are available over-the-counter and are typically used as part of a regular skin care regimen to improve skin tone, texture, pigmentation, and fine lines. Some of the most common ingredients found in cosmeceutical products are antioxidants, retinoids, exfoliants, peptides and proteins, and botanical extracts.

Lip care, skincare, tooth whitening, hair care, injectables, and other cosmeceuticals products are available on the market.

Cosmeceuticals are cosmetic products that contain bioactive ingredients that have medicinal properties. It could be a pharmaceutical, a cosmetic, or both. They are applied topically as creams or lotions, similar to cosmetics, but contain active ingredients that affect skin cell function. In exceptional cases, their action is limited to the skin's surface, whereas others can adhere to deeper levels, each enhancing or restricting normal skin functions. These are commercially available as either prescription medications or over-the-counter medications. Cosmeceutical active ingredients are constantly improved by companies involved in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, natural products, and cosmetics, while advances in the field and knowledge of skin biology and pharmacology have accelerated the cosmetic industry's growth of novel active compounds.
