<p>A skin care composition contains an antioxidant effective amount of a phenolic diterpene compound of the ferruginol type. The compounds can be dissolved, dispersed or encapsulated in cosmetic solutions, lotions, creams and liposomes to provide skin care products which reduce the accumulation of lipid peroxides and other biological oxidation products in the skin. Such compositions are effective agents against the production of peroxides in the skin resulting from sunlight, heat, radiation and the aging process.</p> |
