Ingredient Encapsulation In Skincare: INCI Decoded | featuring Esther Olu

ONCE again I've teamed up with the amazing + brilliant Esther Olu to bring another concept to my INCI Decoded series! This time we're tackling ingredient encapsulation in skincare, and explaining why it's used, the mechanisms behind it, and the benefits to seeing it formulations! We also got some super amazing guest appearances to help explain bring y'all the information. --------------- Don't forget to follow Esther on IG (@themelaninchemist) + Twitter (@estherolu_), and let us know what else you want us to talk about on INCI Decoded! Also HUGE thank you and shout out to @Dr Alexis Stephens (@DrAlexisStephens) + Alli Reed from Stratia (stratia.com) for being so kind and generous for providing such amazing information for me to include in this video!
