Cogesome

Cogesome® RL (R10115) is a novel and proprietary pro-liposome formulation that encapsulates retinol (vitamin A) for superior penetration into the skin, improved stability, and optimal miscibility in aqueous systems. The power of retinol is undisputed, accelerating epidermal renewal and enhancing collagen and hyaluronic acid production to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging and improve the skin’s overall appearance. Properly managed retinol is one of the skin’s best supporters, contributing to a healthy glow and youthful appearance.Ex vivo data demonstrate how Cogesome® RL rapidly penetrates the skin, enhancing the penetration and delivery of retinol from the skin’s surface deep into the skin to maximize efficacy. Cogesome® RL significantly reduces biofilm-forming skin resident Cutibacterium acnes, a microbial culprit of blemish flare-ups and skin inflammation. Cogesome® RL is well suited for applications in anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, and anti-blemish formulas, skin exfoliating and resurfacing products, and regimens targeting sun damage and hyperpigmentation.

Cogesome® SA (R10126) is a novel and proprietary liposome formulation that encapsulates salicylic acid (SA) for improved long-term stability and pH to near physiological levels, optimal miscibility in aqueous and glycolic systems, and superior penetration into the skin. Cogesome® SA is well suited for formulas to address blemished skin, including spot treatments, cleansing, and clarifying products, and overnight resurfacing treatments, as well as other skin and hair formulas.Cogesome® SA supports superior skin penetration properties without the irritation associated with traditional salicylic acid. Cogesome® SA is stable and soluble in water for easy formulation in aqueous-based formulation systems. Cogesome® SA is a completely liposome-encapsulated salicylic acid with high miscibility and a pH of 6-7.4, close to physiological pH. As such, the incorporation of salicylic acid by Cogesome® SA does not significantly impact the pH of the final formulation. Cogesome® SA is a high-technology solution for blemish-prone skin.
