AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0034]It is a further object of the invention to provide topical skin cream and lotion compositions that reduce the signs of aging.

[0035]Still another object of the invention is to provide a topical skin cream and lotion composition that leaves the skin feeling soft to the touch without exacerbating acne.

[0036]It is an object of the invention to provide improved components and arrangements thereof in a topical composition for the purposes described which combines a high number and variety of anti-aging actives in a single formulation that is dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes so as to fulfill a strong need in the marketplace.

Problems solved by technology

Topical tretinoin cream has been shown to reduce wrinkles but has a high incidence of side effects and requires a prescription.

Alpha-hydroxy acids have been reported to increase the risk of sunburn and are also irritating to sensitive skin types.

Over-the-counter skin care preparations are generally inadequate in providing anti-aging results, and often make the skin feel greasy and exacerbate acne, as they often include petrolatum or mineral oil.

Their moisturizing qualities also tend to vanish quickly, and they tend to yield little, if any, results in the aforementioned categories of skin aging.

In addition, many include potentially toxic parabens, propylene glycol and fragrances, which are irritants.

Prior scientific research has shown the efficacy of small combinations of few active substances to target a specific category of skin aging, but the comprehensive combination of multiple classes of active substances systematically targeting the various categories of aging has not been carried out.

Finally, the plethora of anti-aging skin products on the market which contain very few ingredients demonstrated in the published literature to provide clinical results to the skin has resulted in confusion in the market among consumers and skin care providers alike.

Additionally, glycolic acid when used regularly is irritating to sensitive skin, and photosensitizing, increasing the risk of sunburn.

However, the skin cream of Mausner is lacking plant-derived polyphenols and antioxidants, and contains the undesirable propylene glycol and animal- or human-derived ingredients (serum proteins).

This composition by Mausner contains retinol, which is an irritant to many users, propylene glycol, which has been reported to result in untoward effects and potential toxicity and animal- or human-derived agents, such as serum proteins.

In addition, the composition lacks DNA repair, peptides and most classes of plant-derived polyphenols.

However, the composition is lacking in amino acids, DNA repair, peptides and polyphenols, and conversely contains propylene glycol, which is sensitizing and retinol, which has a high incidence of irritation to sensitive skin types.

The patents do not define the various categories of skin aging nor do they rigorously define the various categories of actives with respect to clinical outcome.

In addition, none of the prior art included Ilex paraguensis extract in skin cream compositions heretofore described.
