The cosmetics industry plays a significant role in the global economy and consumer lifestyles. Its dynamic and adaptable characteristics make it a key player worldwide. The cosmetics industry generates enormous profits globally, injecting billions of dollars into the world’s economy each year. The industry’s marketing efforts, product launches, and trends influence consumer behavior and perceptions of beauty, contributing to cultural dialogues and societal norms. This study, conducted with a rigorous bibliometric and systematic literature review, offers a comprehensive overview of recent progress in edible cosmetics. The “skincare you can eat” is an innovative branch of cosmetics that employs food co-products and by-products to create edible skincare and hair products and edible packaging materials to advance human well-being and sustainability while honoring the ecological boundaries of our planet. Nutrients and antioxidants derived from organic waste are used in cosmetics and packaging. Some doubts remain about the capacity of edible packaging to be attractive to consumers and offer a reasonable shelf life for cosmetics, and also about safety. It is desirable for the authorities to guarantee consumer health through carefully regulating labeling requirements and good manufacturing practices for cosmetics and edible packaging.

“…Chitosan, another bio-based polymer, is a very promising alternative for cosmetic industry, and, in particular, for the manufacturing of hair and skin care formulations, nail lacquers and lotions, or moisturized for lips and skin. 101,102 Moreover, chitosan can be used in other types of products for different purposes, including for providing water-resistant character to sunscreens or antimicrobial properties to deodorants. 67,103 Chitosan is a copolymer of 2-amino-2-deoxyβ-D-glucose units and a certain number of N-acetyl-2-amino-2deoxy-β-D-glucose residues linked through β-1,4-glycosidic bonds.…”

“…Due to their biodegradability, nontoxicity, , biocompatibility, − and sustainable sourcing, PhG NPs are a desirable scaffold for diverse applications. Consequentially, native PhG NPs are already used as coatings for cereals, as additives for moisturizing and antiaging skin care, and to improve the water solubility and bioavailability of certain hydrophobic active ingredients such as carotenoids and flavonoids. − …”

A suite of acyl chloride structural isomers (C 6 H 11 OCl) was used to effect gas-phase esterification of starch-based phytoglycogen nanoparticles (PhG NPs). The surface degree of substitution (DS) was quantified using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, while the overall DS was quantified using 1 H NMR spectroscopy. Gas-phase modification initiates at the NP surface, with the extent of surface and overall esterification determined by both the reaction time and the steric footprint of the acyl chloride reagent. The less sterically hindered acyl chlorides diffuse fully into the NP interior, while the branched isomers are restricted to the near-surface region and form self-limiting hydrophobic shells, with shell thicknesses decreasing with increasing steric footprint. These differences in substitution were also reflected in the solubility of the NPs, with water solubility systematically decreasing with increasing DS. The ability to separately control both the surface and overall degree of functionalization and thereby form thin hydrophobic shells has significant implications for the development of polysaccharide-based biopolymers as nanocarrier delivery systems.
