Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for caring for the skin, intended to soften cutaneous signs of ageing, by the successive application to the skin, wetted beforehand, of four compositions, namely: a microdermabrasion composition, a peeling composition, a soothing composition and an anti-ageing composition having a given constitution. It also relates to a kit having four separate packagings, each of which includes one of the abovementioned compositions.
Claims19
A method for caring for the skin, comprising the successive application, to an area of skin wetted beforehand, of the following compositions in the following order:
- a microdermabrasion composition comprising at least 5% by weight of metal oxide particles, which is applied by massaging, and then removed by washing,
- a peeling composition comprising at least 3% by weight of at least one desquamating agent,
- a soothing composition comprising water having a mineral content of at least 300 mg/l,
- an anti-ageing composition comprising at least one anti-ageing active principle chosen from:
- compounds which enhance the synthesis of collagen and/or of elastin and/or of glycosaminoglycans and/or of proteoglycans and/or of fibronectin and/or of laminin;
- compounds which inhibit the decomposition of collagen and/or of elastin;
- skin relaxants;
- agents which inhibit the glycation of proteins;
- agents which enhance the proliferation of keratinocytes and/or of fibroblasts;
- agents which enhance the differentiation of keratinocytes;
- and their mixtures.
A kit comprising:
- a first packaging comprising a composition which comprises at least 5% by weight of metal oxide particles,
- at least one second packaging comprising a peeling composition which comprises at least 5% by weight of at least one desquamating agent,
- a third packaging comprising a composition comprising a thermal or mineral water having a mineral content of at least 300 mg/l,
- a fourth packaging comprising a composition which comprises at least one anti-ageing active principle chosen from:
- compounds which enhance the synthesis of collagen and/or of elastin and/or of glycosaminoglycans and/or of proteoglycans and/or of fibronectin and/or of laminin, compounds which inhibit the decomposition of collagen and/or of elastin, skin relaxants, agents which inhibit the glycation of proteins, agents which enhance the proliferation of keratinocytes and/or of fibroblasts, agents which enhance the differentiation of keratinocytes, and their mixtures.
