Abstract:
Disclosed is a composition comprising a combination of: seed extract, extract, palmitoyl wheat protein hydrolysate, algae extract, and tripeptide. The composition may further comprise one or more of the following: peel extract, extract, extract, (pea) extract, fruit extract, and dipalmitoylhydroxy proline. Such compositions are useful in methods for aiding in improving skin firmness, lifting the skin, preventing or decreasing skin sagging, and preventing or decreasing visible signs of aging resulting from internal and external causes such as environmental stresses.
Topical Skin Compositions, Their Preparation, And Their Use
Topical skin compositions include a complex containing components to provide a defense against the various pathway mechanisms of free radicals, reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and other oxidizing species on the human body including the skin. The compositions may be administered by topically applying them in an amount to inhibit those mechanisms. The compositions and methods are directed to the prevention of the adverse or detrimental effects of free radicals, reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and other oxidizing species on the human body including the skin. Thus, the compositions according to the invention improve barrier function, inhibit elastase and collagenase, and/or promote synthesis of collagen and elastin.

Abstract:
A method for the measurement and analysis of skin fluorescence across multiple subjects. The method includes illuminating each subject with an excitation wavelength, detecting a peak fluorescence level within a corresponding emission wavelength range, determining relative levels of skin glycation for each subject, and evaluating the efficacy of a skin treatment based on the relative levels of skin glycation. The method can include ranking and normalizing the peak fluorescence levels for each subject, and the method is suitable for use in placebo-controlled studies of anti-glycation skin therapies.

Abstract:
A skin whitening composition includes acerola cherry fermentate. The composition can be topically applied to the human skin and can include one or more whitening agents in combination with acerola cherry fermentate to achieve enhanced whitening effect. A method of whitening human skin includes topically applying to the skin acerola cherry fermentate in an amount and for a period of time sufficient to visibly whiten the skin. The method includes incorporating acerola cherry fermentate with known whitening agents and applying to the skin in an amount and for a period of time sufficient to visibly whiten the skin.
