Definitions

  • the instant disclosure relates to cosmetic compositions providing improved penetration, and particularly to cosmetic compositions providing improved penetration without the use of common penetration enhancers. Additionally, aspects of the disclosure relate to methods for treating damaged skin with cosmetic compositions.
  • Skin acts as a natural barrier between internal and external environments and therefore plays an important role in vital biological functions such as protection against mechanical and chemical injury, microorganisms, and ultraviolet damage.
  • the health and appearance of skin can deteriorate due to environmental factors, genetic makeup, nutrition, and sun exposure.
  • UV radiation ultraviolet
  • environmental pollution wind, heat, infrared radiation
  • low humidity low humidity
  • harsh surfactants abrasives
  • Typical skin damage includes fine lines, wrinkling, hyperpigmentation, sallowness, sagging, dark under-eye circles, puffy eyes, enlarged pores, visible dead skin, i.e., flaking, scaling, dryness, and roughness. Consumers desire to slow the gaining of skin damage and reduce the effects of aging, especially in the face and around the eyes. Radiant and clear skin appears youthful and is a sign of good health and vitality. Accordingly, there is an ongoing need for new and improved formulations that improve the health and visual appearance of skin.
