AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing personal care compositions fail to effectively upregulate the expression of ATG5 gene, which is crucial for controlling skin aging through autophagy, leading to issues like dryness, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity.

Method used

A personal care composition comprising carboxymethyl cysteine compound and C6-C12-dicarboxylic acid amide or its salt, synergistically upregulates the expression of ATG5 gene, enhancing skin benefits such as elasticity, reducing wrinkles, and reducing sagging.

Benefits of technology

The composition significantly enhances skin elasticity, reduces wrinkles, and minimizes sagging by upregulating ATG5 gene expression, demonstrating a synergistic effect when both components are combined.
