Exosomes: what is it and how it works in cosmetics

To achieve qualitative changes in the skin, it is not enough just to develop super effective formulas. It is necessary that they can get to the skin cells and supply useful components there. What used to sound like fiction has now become a reality thanks to exosomes.

What are exosomes?

Exosomes are microscopic bubbles with a diameter of 30 to 100 nanometers. Exosomes are released from some cells and move through body fluids to help others. In the human body, exosomes carry various molecules: they deliver proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. For example, if you injure your finger, the cells begin to secrete exosomes to start the healing process. In general, exosomes are involved in the processes of immune defense, tissue regeneration and other important body functions.

An important feature of exosomes is that they have no obstacles in their path. Therefore, they are effective when applied to the skin (for example, as part of a cream).

How exosomes were discovered

The history of exosomes began in the 60s of the XX century, when scientists discovered that some cells are able to release small bubbles into the environment. In 1981, the term "exosomes" began to be used, but only in connection with the study of cancer cells. Back then, scientists believed that exosomes removed some proteins from the cell, and that was it. 
In 2013, it was found out that exosomes are involved in the cell transport system - for this, scientists received the Nobel Prize. Research continued, and in 2022 it was suggested that the aging process occurs due to problems in the transport system between cells. 

Where do exosomes come from for use in cosmetics

For use in cosmetics, exosomes are obtained from various sources, such as human stem cells and adipose tissues. Plant exosomes are less effective and cannot be compared with human ones.
How exosomes contribute to skin rejuvenation
The exosome enters the cell, collapses inside it, and the contents of the exosome exit into the cell space. The synthesis of collagen and elastin is started. And this process, in turn, gives rise to a variety of reactions that promote skin rejuvenation. Exosomes seem to program cells to slow down the aging process. 

Exosomes in the composition of a cosmetic product are applied to the surface of the skin, but due to their small size they penetrate into the dermis. As a result, metabolic processes improve, wrinkles and creases are smoothed, the skin becomes elastic and moisturized.

Cosmetics with exosomes

Any product containing exosomes is recommended to "stand" on the skin for at least 30 minutes. It takes time for the exosomes to penetrate the dermis. And only then you can apply the following stages of care or apply makeup.

To feel the effect of exosomes, try the serum for problem areas with a lifting effect LEJEU FACE UP SERUM. It contains exosomes of stem cells and two types of vitamin C. Together, these components erase age from your face, especially in the nasolabial folds and around the eyes.

A cool remedy for every day is a rejuvenating gel with glutathione and exosomes HADAOMOI SUHADA GLUTATHIONE ALL IN ONE GEL. It lightens pigmentation, triggers rejuvenation processes and gives the skin a healthy glow.

A convenient form is anti-aging patches with exosomes and peptides SPA TREATMENT HAS Stretch iSheet ExoSome. The unique ingredient of the patches is the HAS protein complex, which contains more than 130 types of growth factors. It is enclosed in nanocapsules that penetrate into the stratum corneum and make the skin elastic and radiant from the inside.

An unusual format is a drink to enhance vital energy and beauty of the RECORESERUM Energy Exosomes10 servings contain collagen and elastin peptides, natural plant extracts, swallow's nest and coenzyme Q10.
