Findings
This review found that nanoparticles in skincare products can deliver active ingredients deeper into skin and provide longer-lasting effects—but here's the catch: how they actually work, how deep they penetrate, and whether they're safe for human health aren't fully understood yet. Nanoparticles are already in many cosmetics (sunscreens, anti-aging products) and treatments for conditions like acne and psoriasis, but the research on potential risks is incomplete.
