Definitions
- Melanin is the black pigment of hair and skin and is synthesized from the a ino acid tyrosine by melanosomes .
- Melamosomes are organelles found in melanocytes, a cell type present at the dermis-epidermis junction. Tyrosine is acted upon by an enzyme, tyrosinase, which is the key step in melanogenesis .
- inhibitors of tyrosinase such as hydroquinone and its derivatives, catechols, mercaptoamines, alpha hydroxy acids and others have been used in cosmetic compositions to regulate skin pigmentation. However, only some of these are reversible and show no undesirable side effects.
- melanin is synthesised from monomers and is transferred to the neighbouring keratinocytes .
- the keratinocytes divide and differentiate and thus transport the melanosome to the surface of the skin.
- the intensity of the skin colour is directly related to the number, the size, the melanin content, the rate of formation and migration transfer of melanosomes to the keratinocytes.
- alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of ⁇ -hydroxy and ⁇ -acyloxyl-carboxylic acids also have a skin lightening effect and, advantageously, that these salts can effectively be delivered to the skin in a vanishing cream base.
- the skin lightening effected by the composition of the invention is reversible and without any side effects.
- the composition according to the invention is active during both day and night .
- the composition most preferably comprises C14-18 fatty acids.
- the fatty acid soap preferably comprises 1-5% by weight of the composition.
- the fatty acids and fatty acid derivatives are preferably saturated.
- a cosmetic method for lightening human skin by topically applying to the skin a skin lightening composition according to the invention.
- composition may also comprise an additional skin lightening agent which may be chose from any known such agent for example: niacin, niacinamide, placenta extract, hydroquinone and derivatives (e.g. arbutin) , kojic acid, dicarboxylic acids (azelaic acid, sebacic acid) , represented by the formula HOOC- (CxH y ) -COOH where x ranges from 4 to 20 and y ranges from 6 to 40, ascorbic acid and derivatives thereof and ferulic acid.
- an additional skin lightening agent which may be chose from any known such agent for example: niacin, niacinamide, placenta extract, hydroquinone and derivatives (e.g. arbutin) , kojic acid, dicarboxylic acids (azelaic acid, sebacic acid) , represented by the formula HOOC- (CxH y ) -COOH where x ranges from 4 to 20 and
- moisturisers and humectants include polyols, glycerol, cetyl alcohol, paraffin oils, lanolin and its derivatives, fatty acid esters, etc. Silicone compounds such as silicone oil, cyclomethicones, dimethicones, dimethiconols may also be included.
- a panel of 25 volunteers was maintained for each assessment after screening the forearms of the panelists for uniformity of colour. Measured dose of the cream (Example 1, 2 or 3) was applied to one of the forearms twice a day. Visual assessment was carried out for a period of 8 weeks. The level of skin lightening is presented in Table 2.
- a skin lightening composition which is reversible and without any side effects.
- the composition is active both during the day and night.
