Resumen
Esta revisión bibliográfica desarrolla tres temas principales en un orden lógico para la interpretación de la misma: la seguridad de los materiales a escala nanométrica utilizados en cosméticos, la normativa aplicable a dichos materiales y los productos cosméticos que los contienen en las de acuerdo con las disposiciones regulatorias principales en el mundo y el caso particular de las nanopartículas sólidas lipídicas (NSL) como sistemas de liberación promisorios en productos cosméticos y de cuidado personal. Se describen brevemente las generalidades de los materiales a escala nanométrica utilizados en el campo cosmético, describiendo sus aplicaciones, propiedades y clasificación para enfocarse en sus aspectos de seguridad e indicar los métodos para su evaluación. Sobre esta base se reseña la normativa aplicable en los tres principales frentes de legislación mundiales que generan las directrices para la utilización de estos materiales en los productos cosméticos: La Unión Europea, Estados Unidos y Japón, brindando una perspectiva actual del avance de cada uno de ellos. Por último se revisó el caso particular de las nanopartículas sólidas lipídicas en términos de la información reportada en cuento a su seguridad teniendo en cuenta que en los últimos años se han perfilado como sistemas de liberación prometedores en la industria cosmética por los atributos característicos que presentan.
Abstract. This review develops three main topics in a logic order for its interpretation: The safety of nano-scaled materials used in cosmetic industry, its regulation and the regulation related to finished cosmetic products involving them in its formulation for the main global regulatory frameworks and the particular case of Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLN) as delivery systems with high potential in cosmetic and personal care products. The general aspects of nano-scaled materials used in cosmetic field are described in terms of its applications, properties and classification to focus on the aspects of safety addressing testing methods for its evaluation. With this background there were outlined the applicable regulations in the three main legislation fronts that develop the guidelines for the use of these materials in cosmetics: European Union, United States and Japan, providing a current perspective of each one. Finally the particular case of Solid Lipid Nanoparticles was reviewed in terms of their safety taking into account that these delivery systems are promising in cosmetics industry due to its characteristic attributes.
