Cosmetic agent containing 2-furanone derivatives

A cosmetic agent comprising a 2-furanone derivative of the formula (I) and/or of the formula (II):

• wherein the radicals R1 to R10, independently of one another, are selected from the group consisting of
• hydrogen, —OH, a methyl, methoxy, an aminomethyl or hydroxymethyl radical,
• a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical,
• a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical,
• a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or triamino hydrocarbon radical, a group —OR11, where R11 is selected from a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or a linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical,
• a group —NR12R13, where R12 and R13 independently of one another, are selected from hydrogen, methyl, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical or a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical,
• a group —COOR14, where R14 is selected from hydrogen, methyl, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical, a —C2-C4-saturated mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical or a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or triamino hydrocarbon radical,
• a group —CONR15R16, where R15 and R16 are independently selected from hydrogen, methyl, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical, a —C2-C4-saturated mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical or a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or triamino hydrocarbon radical,
• a group —COR16, where R16 is selected from methyl, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical, a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or trihydroxy hydrocarbon radical or a —C2-C4-saturated or mono- or diunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di- or triamino hydrocarbon radical, and
• a group —OCOR17, where R17 is methyl, a —C2-C30-saturated or mono- or polyunsaturated, branched or linear hydrocarbon radical, a —C2-C30-saturated or mono- or polyunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di-, tri- or polyhydroxy hydrocarbon radical or a —C2-C30-saturated or mono- or polyunsaturated, branched or linear mono-, di-, tri- or polyamino hydrocarbon radical,
• with the proviso that when R7 and R8 are —OH and R9 or R10 are hydrogen, the remaining groups R9 and R10 are not a dihydroxyethyl radical.
