Nanotechnology in cosmetics represents a major advancement in how active ingredients are delivered to the skin.

A human hair strand is between 80,000 and 100,000 nanometers thick.
A nano particle used in De La Terre measures between 50 and 200 nanometers.

This means it can be up to 1,000 times smaller than a hair strand.

This difference in scale transforms how active ingredients interact with the skin and how they are utilized.

What is Cosmetic Nanoencapsulation?

Nanoencapsulation is a technology that encases the active ingredient in a microscopic structure, usually composed of skin-compatible lipids.

This structure protects against oxidation, increases molecular stability, improves the utilization of the active ingredient, and allows for gradual and controlled release.

It's not about using more active ingredients.
It's about delivering them better.

Stability and Antioxidant Protection

Stability is one of the biggest challenges in high-performance cosmetics.

Active ingredients like vitamin C are potent but naturally unstable and susceptible to oxidation.

Application in De La Terre

In our Illuminating nano serum with nanoencapsulated vitamin C, we use a structure based on antioxidant oils from açaí and raspberry. The serum also contains 3 hyaluronic acids of different molecular weights, including nano.

This combination reduces premature oxidation, maintains potency throughout use, increases compatibility with the barrier, and promotes more effective action in the active layers of the skin.

The result is greater stability and better antioxidant performance.

Cell Renewal with Low Sensitization Potential

Retinol is one of the most recognized active ingredients for cell renewal and improving skin texture.

In its free form, it can cause discomfort due to rapid release.

Nanoencapsulation allows for gradual release, avoiding concentration peaks on the surface.

Application in the NanoBiotech Line

In the treatment with nano retinol, the active ingredient is combined with nano niacinamide.

This combination preserves retinol's stability, modulates its release, and strengthens the barrier, also assisting in ceramide synthesis.

The result is cell renewal with low sensitization potential, even with continuous use.

In practice, the formulation demonstrates excellent tolerability.

Safety and Responsibility

Nanotechnology in cosmetics is widely scientific and follows international safety regulations.

When correctly developed, it primarily acts on the epidermis and superficial dermis, respecting the skin's physiological limits.

Performance and safety go hand in hand.

NanoBiotechnology: Science, Nature, and Technology

Nanotechnology, like regenerative technology with exosomes, represents a leap in contemporary cosmetics.

It was from this vision that De La Terre renewed its line for NanoBioTech.

We unite the ancestry of the forest, present in our oils and plant extracts, with the sophistication of science and cosmetic engineering.

We develop natural, technological formulations designed for the real needs of our skin.

More than natural innovation, it is a choice for a formula with respect for the skin, the environment, science, and our origin.

Nanoencapsulated active ingredients offer greater molecular stability, better skin utilization, gradual and controlled release, low sensitization potential, and more consistent results with continued use.

At De La Terre, nanotechnology is a central part of our manufacturing engineering.

This is how we combine Brazilian nature, advanced science, and regenerative technology to create high-performance skin care with balance and responsibility.
