The aim of this study is to contribute to the preparation and characterization of nanoemulsions for anti-aging cosmetic use. Palmarosa oil and Rosehip nanoemulsions were prepared with different active cosmetic ingredients such as mandelic acid and hyaluronic acid, in concentrations of 1%, 3% and 5% (wt%) of pseudoboehmite. After the nanoemulsions analysis, they were characterized in the following parameters: visual analysis, pH, density and optical microscopy. The results obtained show the possibility of using different compositions, the most suitable were: palmarosa oil nanoemulsion with 3 or 5wt% of mandellic acid/pseudoboehmite and palmarosa oil nanoemulsion with 1,3 or 5% of hyaluronic acid/pseudobohemite.
