ABSTRACT:
Biotin esters, namely biotin C.sub.2-4 -alkyl esters, are prepared by esterifying biotin with a C.sub.2-4 -alkanol. These esters have the capability of being absorbed by the human skin better than biotin and are converted into biotin during or after absorption. Since biotin itself promotes the fat and cholesterol synthesis of the skin, the novel biotin esters of this invention are useful as active ingredients for cosmetic hair-care and skin-care compositions.
