The cosmetics industry has swiftly evolved in tandem with the growing public consciousness of the significance of skincare and aesthetic presentation. In this context, cosmetic goods serve not only to enhance appearance but also to deliver additional functional advantages, including UV protection, antioxidant properties, skin whitening, anti-aging effects, and more. To achieve these functional claims, suitable formulations must have active substances with significant biological efficacy. One of the primary issues encountered is the instability of these active components, which are susceptible to deterioration from environmental conditions such as pH variations, temperature fluctuations, light exposure, and oxygen, ultimately diminishing the product's efficacy. Microencapsulation is a method that mitigates this problem by encasing active substances within a protective shell to safeguard them from external deterioration. This method has multiple advantages, including prolonging the shelf life of active substances, improving their absorption into the skin, and facilitating regulated release. Diverse microencapsulation techniques, including spray drying, ionic gelation, solvent evaporation, and nanoencapsulation, can be utilized in cosmetic product formulation to enhance the stability and efficacy of both hydrophilic and lipophilic active compounds. This study seeks to deliver a thorough examination of microencapsulation's applicability in the cosmetics sector, emphasizing the improvement of active component efficacy and stability. The literature review indicates that microencapsulation enhances the stability of active ingredients, safeguards them against oxidation and degradation from external influences, and improves controlled release in cosmetic goods, including sunscreens, anti-aging creams, and moisturizers. The paper analyzes several prevalent microencapsulation techniques and their advantages, such as improving user comfort via more aesthetically pleasing formulations, concealing unpleasant odors or colors, and minimizing irritation risk for sensitive skin. Consequently, microencapsulation provides solutions for extending shelf life and enhancing stability while also improving the user experience of cosmetic items. This technology facilitates the creation of safer, more stable, effective, and sustainable cosmetic products, enhancing the overall value of the cosmetics sector.
