SKIN CARE COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING COMBINATIONS OF COMPOUNDS FOR MIMICKING THE EFFECT ON SKIN OF RETINOIC ACID

摘要

Compounds which sufficiently inhibit LRAT or ARAT catalyzed esterification o f retinol into inactive retinyl esters, have the same effect on keratinocytes as retinoic acid. Thus, effects of retinol or retiny l esters in combination with these compounds are analogous to treatment with retinoic acid.
