Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the field of cosmetology has seen remarkable progress, particularly in the development and use of ingredients grounded in scientific research. Advances in understanding the skin's biology and how it responds to various active compounds have led to the creation of more effective and targeted cosmetic products. Innovations in skincare formulations, such as the incorporation of peptides, antioxidants, and novel delivery systems, have improved product efficacy, providing solutions for a wide range of skin concerns including aging, pigmentation, and hydration.
Alongside these developments, the growing trend of personalized skincare has emerged, powered by advancements in genetic research and skin microbiome studies. These innovations enable the creation of customized products that are tailored to an individual’s unique skin type and environmental factors. As scientific evidence continues to guide the formulation of cosmetic products, the industry is increasingly focused on transparency and safety, ensuring that products are both effective and safe for consumers. In this Special Issue, we invite authors to explore the latest scientific innovations in cosmetic ingredients and their clinical applications, highlighting how these advancements are shaping the future of skincare.
Dr. Josipa Bukić
