Liposomes can act as dermal delivery carriers due to their being small, unilamellar, and designed with membrane flexibility. Therefore, liposomes are commonly used in dermal applications, either as protective systems for active ingredients or for their moisturizing properties. The use of the liposomal drug-delivery system for cosmetics was started in 1987, but nowadays they are frequently used in several hundred commercials in various forms like gels, creams, and moisturizers. The lipids used for liposomes contain moisture; therefore, as the liposomal vesicle ruptures, moisture adheres to the skin surface providing hydration. By using liposomes, we are able to overcome some restrictions such as low penetration, solubility, stability, duration of effect and high side effects or costs, and improve some other characteristics.The incorporation of cosmeceuticals using suitable delivery systems is important in the management of cosmetic disorders.
