Dry emulsions were investigated for their possible use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical fields and an extract of Vitis vinifera leaves was obtained and characterized in terms of quality and quantitative levels, which can be introduced in a selected dry emulsion formulation. Several pre-dry emulsions were prepared, six of which were chosen as a consequence of their satisfying physico-chemical and over-time stability characteristics. They were successively freeze-dried and reconstituted after optimising the reconstitution modalities and characterized by optical microscopy, granulometric and thermal analysis, FTIR analysis, rheology, and texture studies. The best formulation was chosen to introduce Vitis vinifera dry extract prepared by percolation: a fair increase in anthocians stability was noted over time in dry emulsions as compared with classic emulsions.

Abstract
Dry emulsions were investigated for their possible use in cosmetic and pharmaceutical fields and an extract of Vitis vinifera leaves was obtained and characterized in terms of quality and quantitative levels, which can be introduced in a selected dry emulsion formulation. Several pre-dry emulsions were prepared, six of which were chosen as a consequence of their satisfying physico-chemical and over-time stability characteristics. They were successively freeze-dried and reconstituted after optimising the reconstitution modalities and characterized by optical microscopy, granulometric and thermal analysis, FTIR analysis, rheology, and texture studies. The best formulation was chosen to introduce Vitis vinifera dry extract prepared by percolation: a fair increase in anthocians stability was noted over time in dry emulsions as compared with classic emulsions.
