In vitro permeation and skin retention of alpha-mangostin proniosome

Alpha-mangostin has been identified as a potent anti-melanogenesis compound in vitro on B16F1 melanoma cells. A concentration of 5 µg/mL demonstrated promising anti-melanogenesis effect without compromising the cell viability. However, due to its high lipophilic nature, the cosmeceutical application...
