    摘要: Disclosed is an in vitro method to determine efficacy of a cosmetic ingredient against stressors, said method comprising the steps of: (i) contacting a 3D living skin-equivalent (LSE) comprising primary human keratinocytes with an oxidative environmental stressor for a pre-determined period; (ii) measuring, by any known means, the extent to which barrier function of said LSE is affected; (iii) determining the number of viable keratinocytes; (iv) contacting said LSE with said cosmetic ingredient; (v) repeating said steps (ii) and (iii); and, (vi) inferring that said ingredient is efficacious if there is improvement in cell viability and barrier function, where said step (iv) is alternatively carried out along with or prior to said step (i), wherein said living LSE is contacted with a non-environmental stressor for a pre-determined period, before step (i) or between said steps (i) and (ii) and further wherein the extent to which said barrier function is affected is measured by permeability assay using a dye.

    摘要: This invention relates to a cosmetic composition, especially one which provides synergistic anti-dandruff efficacy. This is achieved through a judicious combination of anti-dandruff agent piroctone olamine and a willow bark extract. Disclosed is a cosmetic composition comprising: (i) piroctone olamine; (ii) a willow bark extract; and (iii) a cosmetically acceptable carrier, wherein the ratio of the amount of said willow bark extract to that of said piroctone olamine is at least 1:2 parts by weight; wherein said willow bark extract is extracted from salix alba, salix glandulosa, salix purpurea or salix caroliniana.

    摘要: This invention relates to a cosmetic composition, especially one which provides synergistic anti-dandruff efficacy. This is achieved through a judicious combination of anti-dandruff agent piroctone olamine and a vitamin B3 compound. Disclosed is an anti-inflammatory composition comprising: (i) piroctone olamine; (ii) a vitamin B3 compound; and (iii) a cosmetically acceptable carrier, wherein the ratio of the amount of said vitamin B3 compound to that of said piroctone olamine is at least 22:1 part by weight; wherein said vitamin B3 is niacinamide.
