ABSTRACT:
A cosmetically acceptable composition for topical application to human skin or hair in order to reduce greasiness comprises, at a concentration of from 0.0001M to 0.5M, a biotin antagonist which is capable of blocking the activity of the biotin dependent enzyme acetyl-SCoA-carboxylase implicated in sebum production; together with a carrier other than water as an aid to delivering the biotin antagonist to the sebaceous gland.
