Abstract: A customized skin care composition. The skin care composition includes a base composition comprising one of an aqueous alcohol composition or an aqueous emulsion. The skin care composition further includes at least two booster compositions selected from the group consisting of a first grade exfoliating agent; a second grade exfoliating agent, the second grade exfoliating agent providing greater exfoliating than the first grade exfoliating agent; a first grade whitening agent; a second grade whitening agent, the second grade whitening agent providing greater whitening than the first grade whitening agent; a first grade anti-aging agent; and a second grade anti-aging agent, the second grade anti-aging agent providing greater anti-aging effects than the first grade anti-aging agent. The base composition and the at least two booster compositions have been mixed to form a composition that is stable and has efficacious concentrations of active ingredients corresponding to skin conditions of a consumer.

Abstract: A method for managing a skin care system. The skin care system includes circuitry to receive skin information from a user. The circuitry determines treatable skin conditions based on the skin information. The skin care system generates severity information and cosmetic formulation compatibility information based on the treatable skin conditions. The skin care system is further able to virtually display user-specific compatible cosmetic formulations based on at least one parameter associated with the severity information and cosmetic formulation compatibility.

Abstract: A system forms a cosmetic composition. The system includes a dispensing arrangement in selective fluid communication with a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles mounted on a movable carousel. The dispensing arrangement is configured to selectively dispense a plurality of the booster compositions together with a base composition corresponding to a formulation corresponding to a compatibility profile and consumer skin conditions to form a stable composition having efficacious concentrations of active ingredients into a receiving receptacle.

Abstract: A method for providing a customized skin care product to a customer. The method includes obtaining skin information from a consumer regarding current skin conditions. A skin condition is generated in response to the skin information. An ingredient is selected corresponding to the skin condition. A compatibility profile is generated corresponding to all previously selected ingredients. The generating skin conditions, selecting the ingredient and generating the compatibility profile are repeated until a sufficient number of ingredients are selected to provide a formulation that includes a base and at least two booster compositions that, when mixed, form a skin care composition that is stable and has efficacious concentrations of active ingredients corresponding to skin conditions of a consumer. The formulation comprising the ingredients selected is generated and a cosmetic dispensing system dispenses the ingredients of the formulation.

Abstract: An emulsified gel composition having an emulsified gel system having an emulsifier and a hyaluronic acid delivery component. The hyaluronic acid delivery component includes a combination of active ingredients. The combination of active ingredients includes each of a hyaluronic acid, a hyaluronidase inhibitor, and hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol. The composition is stable and has a pleasing tactile feel. A method for cosmetic treatment of keratinous tissues is also disclosed.

Abstract: A topically applicable chemical peel composition for home use having from about 4% to about 13%, by weight, of alpha hydroxy acid, from about 0.1% to about 2.0%, by weight, of salicylic acid, from about 0.1% to about 2.0%, by weight, of phenylethyl resorcinol and balance essentially dermatologically acceptable liquid solvent comprising water and ethanol, the ethanol present from about 10 to about 90 wt %. In addition, a chemical skin peel regime or regimen including topical application onto the skin is also disclosed.
