Summary

Although natural resources offer a set of antioxidant molecules with diverse structures and polarities, achieving stabilization combined with a comprehensive antioxidant profile often proves incompatible with practical preformulation considerations. Natural deep eutectic solvents (NaDESs) are emerging as a promising solution. An optimized NaDES extract was incorporated into an eco-designed cream using innovative blending technology. The resulting creams demonstrated 90-day stability, without significant deviations in physicochemical or rheological properties. This study lays the foundation for the integration of deep eutectic solvents into complex cosmetic products.
