ABSTRACT:
A topical antioxidant composition for the protection of skin from damage caused by ultraviolet radiation. The composition includes a first component (such as beta glucan) that increases cellular viability of epidermal cells, and a second component that decreases the production of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins in those cells. In a particular embodiment, the composition includes beta glucan in combination with panthenol, grape seed extract, vitamin C and superoxide dismutase, which exhibit a synergistic effect in protecting the skin from the adverse effects of ultraviolet radiation. In another embodiment, the composition further includes Vitamin A and Vitamin E. The antioxidant compositions are incorporated into sunscreen products, soap, moisturizing lotions, skin toners, and other skin care products.
