A vitamin E/olive oil nanoemulsion embedded in glycerol-crosslinked xanthan gum gave a stable, non-greasy nanoemulgel with sustained vitamin E release, occlusion that lowered transepidermal water loss by up to 33.3%, and a mean irritation score of 0. In a murine dry-skin model it raised moisture and reduced epidermal thickness and inflammatory infiltration.
