Abstract:

The liposome with high content (10%) of ceramide Ⅱ was prepared by the homogenization technique. A large number of Maltese Cross liquid crystal structures which were uniform in particle size were observed under a polarizing microscope. The ceramide Ⅱ liposomes were smooth, soft and water-soluble, with suitable viscosity and good stability. It could be used in cosmetics by simply stirring, which solved the problems of poor water solubility and easy crystallization and precipitation for ceramide. Human-skin test results showed that the TEWLvalue (transepidermal water loss) of the subjects could recover 85% with the cream containing 1% ceramide Ⅱ liposome (which contained 10% ceramide Ⅱ) in two hours, and the skin moisture content could be increased by 39.58% in an hour, which indicated that it had good repairing ability for skin barrier.

Key words: ceramide Ⅱ, liposome, liquid crystal, cosmetics
