Softgel-compatible composition containing retinol

摘要

A softgel-compatible composition containing retinol comprises retinol-impregnated microparticles. The composition may include an optionally thickened silicone oil, or may include an emulsion comprising a silicone oil. Ascorbic acid may be present as ascorbic acid-impregnated microparticles and/or within the emulsion. Such compositions are compatible with softgels, and may also be used in other dispensing containers, such as sachets, tubes, and airless pumps.
