ABSTRACT

Vitamin A compounds have many physiological effects in the human body, some of which are recognized as anti ageing active substances in the cosmetics industry. In view of the disadvantages of the first generation vitamin A (retinoic acid) and the second generation vitamin A (retinol and its esters, etc.) in cosmetic applications, such as poor stability, poor safety (irritant, phototoxic), long conversion pathway, weak efficacy etc., Aneco has developed the third generation vitamin A - hydroxybenzophenone retinate (HPR), which has excellent stability, higher safety, and more significant efficacy. As a new generation of vitamin A derivatives, HPR has great market prospects in the cosmetics industry.

Retinoids include compounds structurally related to vitamin A and compounds with vitamin A bioactivity, of which more than 4,000 are known today.
