Abstract: The invention relates to a preparation having light-protection properties comprising at least one compound of the formula I where R1 and R2 are selected from H and OR11, where each OR11, independently of the others, is OH, a straight-chain or branched C1- to C20-alkoxy group, a straight-chain or branched C3- to C20-alkenyloxy group, a straight-chain or branched C1- to C20-hydroxyalkoxy group, where the hydroxyl group(s) may be bonded to a primary or secondary carbon atom in the chain and furthermore the alkyl chain may also be interrupted by oxygen, and/or a C3- to C10-cycloalkoxy group and/or C3- to C12-cyclo-alkenyloxy group, where the rings may each also be bridged by —(CH2)n— groups, where n=1 to 3, and/or a mono- and/or oligoglycosyl radical, with the proviso that at least one radical from R1 and R2 is OR11, and R3 is a radical OR11, and R4 to R7 and R10 may be identical or different and are, independently of one another, radicals which are substantially inert with respect to the UV properties.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cosmetic or dermatological composition containing at least one precursor of a substance whose active form is sought for its cosmetic activity. One of the applications of the invention relates to compositions capable of rapidly imparting to the skin a color similar to that obtained on prolonged exposure to ultraviolet, solar or artificial radiation, while at the same time avoiding the drawbacks of such an exposure (erythema, burning, loss of elasticity, appearance of wrinkles, premature ageing of the skin, and the like).

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition having antioxidant properties comprising at least one compound of the formula I or a cosmetically, dermatologically or pharmacologically tolerated salt or derivative thereof where R1 to R4 can be identical or different and are selected from H C6-28-alkylcarboxylic acid radicals C6-28-alkenylcarboxylic acid radicals radicals of the formula II where R5-R8, independently of one another, are H, hydroxyl or C1-6-alkoxy, with the proviso that at least one of the radicals R1 to R4 is a radical of the formula II.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of chrome-4-one derivatives of the formula I where R1 and R2 may be identical or different and are selected from H, —C(?O)—R7, —C(?O)—OR7, alkyl groups, alkenyl groups, hydroxyalkyl groups and/or cycloalkyl groups and/or cycloalkenyl groups, R3 is H or alkyl groups, R4 is H or OR8, R5 and R6 are selected from —H, —OH, alkyl groups, alkenyl groups and hydroxyalkyl groups, and R7 is H, alkyl groups, a polyhydroxyl compound, such as, preferably, an ascorbic acid radical or glycosidic radicals, and R8 is H or alkyl groups, where at least two of the substituents R1, R2 and R4—R6 are different from H or at least one substituent from R1 and R2 is —C(?O)—R7 or —C(?O)—OR7, for the care, preservation or improvement of the general state of the skin or hair.
