These analyses target four core mechanisms of action: anti-adhesion, removability, anti-penetration and cleansing. The results are used to craft skin care formulations that effectively protect against the adverse impact of particulate pollutants on skin health.
“We want to assist manufacturers in developing skin care products that demonstrably help shield the skin against particulate pollutants,” said Annette Mehling, Ph.D., senior manager skin sciences of BASF. “However, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ test for anti-pollution claims, as there are different types of pollutants and consequently, several defense methods that may be needed to protect the skin effectively. This is why we have developed a series of new testing methods that allow for the scientifically sound evaluation of the performance of different cosmetic ingredients and formulations.”
