Abstract: Nanocosmetics have attracted a considerable audience towards natural care due to their low cost,
target-specific delivery, and reduced toxicity compared to chemical-based cosmetics. Nanofomulations, including
nanoemulsions, nanotubes, and polymeric carriers, have become next-generation products explored
for the multifaced applications of nanotechnology in skin care. The rise in the cosmetic industry demands innovative
and personalized products designed using nanocarriers for better targeting and improving patient
compliance. Furthermore, nanocosmetics increase the efficiency of skin permeation active ingredient entrapment,
providing better UV protection. Moreover, it offers controlled drug release, targeting active sites and
enhancing physical stability. Further, overcoming the drawback of penetration problems makes them sustainable
formulations for precision medicine. Skincare nourishment with nanocosmetics using Indian spices helps
to maintain, beautify, and rejuvenate human skin. Nanophytopharmaceuticals extracted from plants, including
alkaloids, flavonoids, antioxidants, and volatile oils, are essential phyto-products for skin care. Nano herbals
and nanocosmetics are a growing market and gift of nature that nourishes and cures skin ailments like acne,
pemphigus, anti-aging, albinism, psoriasis, and fungal infections. The emerging concern is highlighted in the
