Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Cosmeceutical treatments are one of the fastest-growing segments in personal care for conditions, including ageing, wrinkles, hair damage, and hyperpigmentation. Different local and international brands are implementing this nanotechnology to improve the quality and efficiency of their cosmetic products to make them more innovative. It opens new ideas for the cosmeceutical industries. Changes are being adopted in many sectors to make them more attractive at the molecular and atomic levels. Nanotechnology plays a vital role in the cosmeceutical industry as it has many merits, like it improves the bioavailability of drugs and, at the same time, increases the effects of cosmetics. It has many advantages like controlling, penetrating, and sustaining the release of drugs in the skin, achieving a specific target, better efficiency, and stability. The micellar nanoparticle is the upcoming field, which is added in cosmetic products and is spread worldwide for commercial purposes. It allows the skin to percolate its bioactive component with the most significant surface area. Nano toxicological researchers are worried about the increasing use of nanoparticles in cosmetics as they can cause a health hazard and penetrate through the skin. This chapter uses nanotechnologies in cosmeceutical products, showing different types of novel carriers used to deliver cosmeceutical products that have merits, demerits, and toxicity in products
