Abstract: There are presented topical formulations and methods of applying these formulations in therapeutically effective amounts directly to areas of the human skin to remediate and to counter effects that are commonly regarded as aging. The formulations address the effects on the skin of UV light, High Energy Visible (HEV) light, blue light, and Urban Dust as well as remediating fine lines and age-related localized melanin concentrations (“age spots”), improving the uniformity of skin tone (reduction in skin redness) and enhancing the brightness of the skin to provide a more youthful appearance. Skin treated with the formulations also exhibit a reduction in the depth and prominence of wrinkles, a marked reduction in harmful reactive oxygen species in the treated skin, and a reduction in lipid peroxidation caused by Urban Dust.

Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment there is presented a formulation that is topically applied to the outer jawline and neck skin to improve the appearance of the skin by repairing or concealing age-related skin effects, such as wrinkles, improving skin tone by reducing stretching and sagging of the skin, adding moisture to reduce skin dryness, and adding an appearance of brightness. An exemplary embodiment of the formulation includes a blend of oligosaccharides, medium chain triglycerides, peptides, silanol, and diglucosyl gallic acid, all provided in a viscous liquid emulsion base for ease of dispensing from a pump dispenser.
