A method of digitally adding the appearance of makeup to a videoconferencing participant. The system and method for applying digital make-up operates in a loop processing sequential video frames. For each input frame, there are typically three general steps: 1) Locating the face and eye and mouth regions; 2) Applying digital make-up to the face, preferably with the exception of the eye and open mouth areas; and 3) Blending the make-up region with the rest of the face. In one embodiment of the invention, the background in the frame containing a video conferencing participant can also be modified so that other video conferencing participants cannot clearly see the background behind the participant in the image frame. In one such embodiment of the invention, the video conferencing participant tries to make his or her own image look comical or altered. In another embodiment of the invention, a particular remote participant tries to make another participant look funny to the other participants.

The present invention relates to boosting of the skin whitening benefits of commonly used tyrosinase inhibitors, tyrosinase competitors, and melanin and other color bodies' reducing agents. The activity of such compositions can be synergistically enhanced by the inclusion of at least one antioxidant composition. This synergistic benefit is further increased if a UV-inhibitor or UV-absorber is also included in such compositions. This is both unexpected and surprising because most such tyrosinase inhibitors, tyrosinase competitors, or melanin reducing agents are also known to possess antioxidant and UV-absorbing properties. Thus, the skin whitening benefits are synergistically increased by combining at least one of the following; (i) a tyrosinase inhibiting agent, or (ii) a tyrosinase competing agent, or (iii) a melanin reducing agent, or (iv) combinations thereof; with at least one antioxidant composition. The additional inclusion of at least one UV inhibitor or absorber composition provides further enhancement of skin whitening effects from such tyrosinase inhibiting, tyrosinase competing or melanin reducing agents that are formulated in combination with an antioxidant composition. In a related application, the skin whitening property of a sunscreen composition can be boosted by the inclusion of an antioxidant composition and a tyrosinase inhibitor, tyrosinase competitor, or melanin and other color bodies reducing composition.
