  • Patent number: 10532024
    Abstract: Compositions for suppressing sebum production in skin (e.g., seborrheic skin), and minimizing glycation in skin (e.g., mature skin) with enhanced UV absorptive properties are described. In particular, the present invention relates to a composition containing a skin benefit agent that includes Lithospermum erythrorhizon. Also, methods of suppressing sebum production in skin (e.g., seborrheic skin) and minimizing glycation in skin (e.g., mature skin) by applying a composition to the skin, wherein the composition comprises an effective amount of a derivative of Lithospermum erythrorhizon are also described.

  • Patent number: 10307366
    Abstract: A method useful for inhibiting moisture loss from skin comprises the step of administering a composition to a subject's skin. The composition comprises a first humectant and a second humectant different from the first humectant. The humectants are useful for increasing moisture content of the subject's skin, specifically the subject's epidermis. The first humectant may comprise a conventional humectant, e.g. glycerol. The second humectant generally comprises certain types of honey. The honey is capable of inhibiting moisture loss from the subject's epidermis and/or moisture loss from the first humectant when the subject is exposed to dry air conditions, e.g. wintertime air having a relative humidity of about 50% or less. Specifically, the second humectant is useful for mitigating adverse effects of the first humectant under certain conditions.

  • Publication number: 20170281703
    Abstract: A nutritional supplement comprises components (A), (B) and (C), and optionally, additional component(s) (D). The nutritional supplement can activate a subject's antioxidant system, more specifically the subject's antioxidant response element (ARE). In one embodiment, the nutritional supplement comprises: (A) glabridin; (B) licochalcone A; and (C) licorice root flavonoids. In another, the nutritional supplement comprises: (A) a first licorice root extract comprising glabridin; (B) a second licorice root extract comprising licochalcone A; and (C) a third licorice root extract comprising flavonoids. Components (A), (B) and (C) are in a combined amount sufficient to activate the subject's antioxidant system after ingestion. In addition, components (A), (B) and (C) are present in a weight ratio (A:B:C) such that their combined effect is greater than the sum of their separate effects regarding activation of the subject's antioxidant system after ingestion of the nutritional supplement.
