Neural Networks Predict Material Structures, Behaviors Faster
A recent interview on Phys.org with Argonne National Laboratory Engineer Mark Messner explores how neural networks in AI could be used to predict material structures, given preferred properties, some 2,000+ times faster than standard simulations.

Kao and Preferred Networks Use AI and RNA for Beauty Counseling
Kao Corp. and Preferred Networks, Inc., have launched a collaborative project based on AI for practical applications of sebum RNA monitoring to build a beauty counseling service committed to skin conditions.
Efficacy
'Mirror, Mirror, in the Internet of Things. . .
...use great caution with the advice you bring.' Just what we need. Another critic scrutinizing appearance. And before coffee no less. Yet, this unbiased, digitized evaluation offers interesting potential; and if we don't like it, we can always turn it off.
Method/Process
Enhancing, Measuring Skin Penetration
Skin penetration is of great interest to personal care formulators for many reasons. Following are a few recent findings.
Color Cosmetics
Epigenetics Make Sederma Ingredient Shine
Sederma's peptide ingredient is inspired by the K-beauty "glass skin" concept, and is meant to improve skin surface quality and contribute to a dewy complexion.
Method/Process
Ascorbic Acid Penetration: Uncovering Spatial Distribution
A research thesis from the University of Nottingham describes how imaging via time of flight-secondary ion mass spectrometry reveals new insights about spatial distribution and ascorbic acid penetration into the skin.
Method/Process
Genetic Test for Alopecia Approved in Europe
The HairDX Genetic Test for Hair Loss, a genetic baldness test manufactured by HairDX LLC, is now available as a CE Marked product under the European In Vitro Diagnostic Directive.
Anti-aging/Face
Lipotec’s Peptide Regenerates Skin Using Epigenetics
Lipotec has launched PEPROAGETM peptide, which assists in leaving skin smoother, more radiant and visually rejuvenated. The peptide can be incorporated into any anti-aging formulation to help reduce skin regeneration taking place with age or in products designed to rejuvenate the skin.
Literature/Data
Skin Pigment Genetics is More Complex at the Equator
New research published in
Cell
presents genetic findings related to skin pigment diversity and complexity, further supporting the trend for customizable skin care.
Literature/Data
Genetic Mutations Open Doors to Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis may be caused by a single-gene mutation, according to new research published in
Nature Genetics
. Scientists believe the effects of the mutation could be partially corrected through glutamine supplementation.
Skin Care
Reverse Labeling is the Best Consumer Magnet Yet
"The Inkey List" line of premium skin care by Be for Beauty turns product labeling on its head.
Literature/Data
ZnO Nanoparticles Penetrate but Only Under These Conditions
Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles are a major component in sunscreens but their ability to permeate skin has remained undetermined. Recent work in
Applied Biomaterials
identifies the conditions under which they penetrate—notably, not in their nano form as they exist in sunscreens.
Literature/Data
Massive Study Identifies Genetic Indicators for Skin Cancer Risk
The results of a massive study examining some 7,404 cases of squamous cell carcinoma in skin identified genetic associations with this disease, some for the first time.

Do Nanomaterials Penetrate Skin? EUON Commissions Review Study
The EUON commissioned a literature review to explore the potential dermal absorption of nanomaterials. Results found the materials rarely penetrate intact skin, except for ionic silver, but a more standardized approach to testing is needed.
Safety/Stability
Research Reviews Non-penetrating Sunscreen Vehicles, Looks to Jojoba
Several "carriers for the future" were highlighted, such as lipid carriers, cyclodextrin derivatives, encapsulation approaches and non-penetrating sunscreens incorporating UV filters and jojoba oil conjugates.
Method/Process
Moisturizer Penetration in Skin Revealed via Low-coherence Inferometry
Research published in the Russian journal
Engineering
describes a method to measure the penetration of gel moisturizers in skin in vivo via low-coherence interferometry.
Animal Alternatives
Global Experts Outline Next-gen, Animal-alternative Cosmetic Test Tenets
With animal testing for the safety assessment of cosmetic ingredients and products banned in the EU, new methods are required to ensure human safety. As such, an international working group has compiled nine guiding principles to lead the development of new test methods.
