COVER STORY: LIPOID KOSMETIK ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE The anti-wrinkle effect was determined by
single fold-depth measurements in the eye area and visually with standardized photographs. Moreover, the opinion of the consumers was evaluated with a questionnaire-based survey. After 28 days, single fold-depth of wrinkles
was reduced by 26 %. The measured reduction is supported by a visible anti-wrinkle effect and a healthier and glowing complexion (Figure 4). The cosmetic benefits were confirmed by the consumers that reported a reduction of wrinkles (70%), a healthier and glowing complexion (80%), and a good or very good skin feel (85%). All participants reported a good or very
good tolerability which was in accordance with the positive evaluation by the dermatologist. Moreover, 75% of the participants would recommend PhytoSolve® Astaxanthin (data not shown).
Conclusion PhytoSolve® Astaxanthin showed excellent cosmetic benefits. The antioxidant effect and capability to mitigate UVB-induced skin damage was proven in vitro. A study with volunteers showed a pronounced and visible anti-wrinkle effect. In addition, the volunteers judged the
product as highly attractive with a good skin feel and reported a rejuvenated skin appearance and a healthier and glowing complexion. Overall, PhytoSolve® Astaxanthin is an
excellent anti-ageing product and a perfect component for advanced skin care products, providing a synergistic complex between natural phospholipids and the powerful antioxidant AXN.
