Existing reviews often address individual enhancers or carriers without integrating drug properties, vehicle microstructure, post-application transformation, quality of evidence, and product development constraints. This review fills that gap by comparing passive formulations, chemical permeation enhancers, vesicular and lipid-based carriers, supersaturating systems, and physical barrier bypass technologies within a skin barrier-informed framework. Increased permeation alone does not establish translational value. Passive delivery remains most feasible for potent, moderately lipophilic small molecules. Chemical enhancers are scalable but limited by irritation and drug-dependent compatibility; nanocarriers may improve solubilization and cutaneous deposition but often lack human confirmation; and physical methods broaden delivery to macromolecules while adding device, manufacturing, usability, and regulatory burdens. Solvent evaporation, residual film composition, supersaturation, precipitation, and drug\u2013vehicle affinity further determine the effective post-application driving force. Accordingly, we propose an evidence-ranked framework linking payload properties and target compartment to mechanism, safety, clinical readiness, and regulatory complexity. It distinguishes mechanistic promise from clinically demonstrated delivery and identifies the evidence needed to advance reproducible topical and transdermal products.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pharmaceutics18091069","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T15:04:32Z","timestamp":1787756672000},"page":"1069","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Skin Barrier-Informed Topical and Transdermal Drug Delivery: Excipient-Driven Strategies, Vehicle Transformation, and Translational Challenges"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Binaya","family":"Sapkota","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2436-6373","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Susmita","family":"Phuyal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-9576-0537","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arjun Dhwoj","family":"Bamjan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1497-0529","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seung-Sik","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"College of Pharmacy and Natural Medicine Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4062-4016","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jung-Hyun","family":"Shim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"College of Pharmacy and Natural Medicine Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0001-7043","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jin Woo","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"College of Pharmacy and Natural Medicine Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0857-4458","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laxman","family":"Subedi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedicine, Health & Life Convergence Sciences, BK21 Four, Biomedical and Healthcare Research Institute, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Biomedicine Cutting Edge Formulation Technology Center, Mokpo National University, Muan-gun 58554, Jeonnam, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"67","article-title":"Transdermal Drug Delivery Systems: A Focused Review of the Physical Methods of Permeation Enhancement","volume":"14","author":"Vaseem","year":"2024","journal-title":"Adv.
