A METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING SKIN CARE COMPOSITION-RESISTANT SKIN-BINDING PEPTIDES

摘要

A method for identifying skin care composition-resistant skin-binding peptides is described. The skin care composition-resistant skin-binding peptides bind strongly to skin from a skin care composition matrix and are stable therein. Peptide-based skin benefit agents, such as skin conditioners and skin colorants, based on the skin care composition-resistant skin binding peptides are described. The peptide-based skin conditioners and skin colorants consist of skin care composition-resistant skin-binding peptide coupled to a skin conditioning agent or a coloring agent, either directly or through an optional spacer. Skin care and skin coloring product compositions comprising these peptide-based skin conditioners and colorants are also described.
