  • Patent number: 9468600
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to compositions and processes for their use that allow for the delivery of physiologically active agents, using a unique composition containing glycerin and triglycerides in the proper ratio. The composition functions by acting both as a humectant and occlusive agent attracting water, returning the skin surface to a smooth state and holding water and physiologically active agents in place. The presence of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic components of the current invention solubilize the physiologically actives into the complex matrix, keeping the actives on the skin and allowing them to penetrate the skin over time, thus delivering the actives to the blood stream.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9023406
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to compositions and processes for their use that ameliorate the appearance of bruises, making them less cosmetically unappealing. The composition functions by acting both as a humectant and occlusive agent attracting water, returning the skin surface to a smooth state and holding water in place. The re-establishment of a homeostatic state in the skin results in a rapid dissipation of the negative cosmetic effects of the bruise on the skin.
