Custom encapsulation of functional ingredients for skin and hair care refers to the tailored design and production of delivery systems that encase active ingredients - such as vitamins, peptides, botanical extracts, minerals, or functional oils - in specialized carrier materials to achieve controlled, targeted, and enhanced delivery. At Salvona, we can take our proprietary systems such as MultiSal®, HydroSal®, and SalSphere® and modify them to your specific needs. What Makes It "Custom"? - Formulated for a Specific Active: The system is optimized to protect and release a particular ingredient (e.g., retinol, salicylic acid, caffeine). - Designed for the Desired Function: Release can be triggered by time, moisture, temperature, friction, or enzymes. - Adapted to Product Format: Tailored to work in lotions, serums, sprays, shampoos, masks, etc. - Matched to Sensory Goals: Encapsulation can enhance texture, reduce irritation, or prevent undesirable odor or color. - Exclusive Formula – Tailored to Your Design, Function, and Purpose: This is not an off-the-shelf solution. The formula is custom-developed to meet your specific goals in performance, sensory profile, and application format. - Proprietary Technology: Built upon one of Salvona’s patented delivery systems, this encapsulation platform offers a unique advantage, ensuring your product stands out in the market with proven, protected innovation. Benefits of Custom Encapsulation 1. Enhanced Stability – Protects sensitive actives from oxidation, light, heat, or pH. 2. Controlled Release – Enables sustained or triggered delivery over time or with use. 3. Targeted Delivery – Guides actives to specific layers (e.g., epidermis, hair follicle). 4. Improved Efficacy – Maintains higher bioavailability and prolonged activity. 5. Reduced Irritation – Encapsulation minimizes direct contact with skin/scalp. 6. Multifunctionality – Allows co-encapsulation of synergistic actives.
