This study suggests that finasteride-loaded liquid crystalline nanoparticles could be a viable alternative to oral administration for treating androgenetic alopecia due to their controlled release and skin permeation properties.

This review reports that cubosomes, used as drug nanocarriers in topical treatments, offer potential benefits for managing skin and eye diseases by improving bioadhesion, retention, and sustained release compared to conventional formulations, but also face manufacturing and biological challenges for effective clinical outcomes.

This study observed that topical application of palmitate or oleate accelerated the onset of the hair growth phase in mice, whereas glycolysis end product lactate delayed it, suggesting metabolic regulation as a promising approach for influencing hair growth.

This review explores the use of skin penetration enhancers like Transcutol® in various formulation systems, discussing their mechanisms and effectiveness in improving transdermal drug delivery without breaching the skin.

This study found that apple polyphenol extract, particularly oligomeric procyanidins, inhibited pancreatic lipase activity and reduced triglyceride absorption in both mice and humans.

This review highlights the promising potential of microemulsions and nanoemulsions in (trans)dermal drug delivery, noting a gap in understanding their distinct mechanisms and composition-related effects on skin permeability, while emphasizing the limited clarity on mesostructures and cosolvent impacts.

This study concluded that shampoos sold in pharmacies generally contain fewer regulated allergens under EU law compared to those sold in mass-market stores or by mail order, and pharmacy-sold baby shampoos were allergen-free.

This study analyzed the composition and cost of 50 cosmetic body scrubs for keratosis pilaris, finding that chemical exfoliants with glycolic acid may reduce symptoms by enhancing skin shedding and reducing water loss, but further clinical studies are needed to confirm their effectiveness.

This review discusses the formulations, mechanisms, and physiological aspects of hair cosmetics and types, but reports no new results, suggesting a foundation for future hair research.

This review discusses various patent articles on microemulsion carriers in drug delivery systems and reports no new empirical findings.

This review surveys the chemical composition and various uses of jojoba oil in medicine and industry but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers enhanced the skin penetration and retention of minoxidil compared to solid lipid nanoparticles, suggesting they could be a promising method for topical delivery.

This chapter reviews formulation principles for creating cosmetic nanoemulsions and applications targeting skin and hair care, but does not present new experimental results.

This review discusses the potential of nanotechnology-based formulations for delivering topical minoxidil to improve hair loss treatment outcomes and reports no new clinical results, urging further research into their benefits and safety considerations.

This review discusses nanostructured lipid carriers and their potential applications in pharmaceuticals and food, offering no new clinical findings but highlighting recent advancements and patents.

This case report indicates that contact dermatitis on the face can result from using a bleaching ointment containing ammonium bisulfite during hair-dyeing.

This study found that hinokitiol in cationic vesicles promoted hair growth in mice, potentially due to its high substantivity on the skin.

In this literature review, potential health risks of toxic chemicals commonly found in cosmetic products were linked to issues such as cancer, reproductive abnormalities, and skin diseases, highlighting concerns over ingredients like talc, parabens, and phthalates.

This review discusses the potential for surface-modified nanostructured lipid carriers to enhance hair regrowth by improving drug absorption and stability, focusing on their use with agents like minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss treatment.

This review examines the advances in nanostructured lipid carriers for treating hyperpigmentation but presents no new clinical results; the authors highlight their potential benefits and applications.

Bee pollen, green tea, essential oils, and various plant extracts improve skin and hair health.

In this study, the researchers found that glucocorticoid receptor activation may influence glucose metabolism, with preventive GR antagonist treatment reducing hyperglycemia and restoring glucose tolerance in a PCOS mouse model.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with clobetasol propionate significantly enhance follicular drug delivery compared to commercial cream, and manual massage further doubles follicular retention.

This study identified the main secondary metabolites in Ziziphus jujuba seeds and confirmed that UPLC-MS/MS and GC-MS effectively demonstrate their pharmaceutical quality.

This study found that adapalene-loaded solid lipid microparticles may enhance targeted drug delivery into sebum due to their similarity to sebum components, although both this formulation and a standard cream showed equivalent follicular penetration.

This study suggests that using particle-bound antiseptics may provide more effective and longer-lasting skin antisepsis compared to their non-particulate forms.

This study suggests that Isaria cicadae Miquel rice fermentation extract may enhance regenerative wound healing of hair follicles in mouse skin through the Hippo pathway mechanism.

This review discusses the current role and challenges of compounding in dermatology without presenting new research results; the authors suggest its resurgence in practice despite pharmaceutical alternatives.

This study found that combining shikimic acid with Prunus mume fruit extract significantly reduces type I 5α-reductase levels in testosterone-stressed skin sebocytes, surpassing the effects of shikimic acid or standard acne treatments alone, and shows promise for stable, non-irritating acne remedies in cosmetic formulations.

This study developed a new analytical method to identify a wide range of endocrine disrupting compounds in full-term amniotic fluid, revealing diverse substances with potential endocrine activity.
