摘要:
A novel anti-sunburn skin-care preparation, such as creams, foundations, milky lotions and the like, is proposed which contains, as the ultraviolet-absorbing and -shielding ingredient, a salt of ellagic acid with a polyvalent metal, e.g., calcium, barium and magnesium. The skin-care preparation is free from the problem of irritation and sensitization of human skin and exhibits excellent anti-sunburn effect with durability.
摘要:
Agents for external application contain as an effective component ellagic acid series compounds represented by the general formula [I] or salts thereof: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 are a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a polyalkylene oxide residue where the alkylene oxide unit has 2 to 3 carbon atoms, or a sugar residue represented by the formula [II]: ##STR2## and R.sub.5 is a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group or an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
