Mechanism of Action – How it Works on Skin

Capsaicin brings together TRPV1, or transient receptor potential vanilloid receptors, in the skin. These are mostly involved in sensory inflammation and perception.

This interaction triggers a warming sensation, enhances delivery of active ingredients, and enhances microcirculation. Within topical formulas, capsaicin for pharmaceuticals and cosmetics aids soothing, anti-inflammatory, and rejuvenating effects. It does this by promoting the supply of oxygen and nutrients to skin tissues.

Recommended Formulation

· Working pH

Its working pH ranges from 5.0 to 7.0.

· Recommended Concentration in different Products

Capsaicin recommended concentration ranges from 0.001% to 0.01% in serums and creams and up to 0.1% in body care lotions and products generally.

· Compatibility with Other Cosmetic Ingredients

Capsaicin is compatible with hyaluronic acid, emollients, menthol, ginger extracts, plant extracts, and peptides.

· Challenges in Formulation

Due to the high strength and skin-sensitizing nature of capsaicin, uniform dispersion and precise dosing are vital. Microencapsulation or controlled-release carriers must be used for enhanced skin tolerance. Never mix strong acids, strong oxidizing agents, heavy metals, metal salts, and high alcohol concentrations with capsaicin.
