This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/295,066, filed Dec. 30, 2021, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
This invention relates to improved anti-aging cream formulations that rely on the unique benefits provided by using tretinoin and niacinamide together.
As human gets older, the skin develops wrinkles and other signs of aging including a reduction in the hydro-lipid protective skin barrier.
While some anti-aging cream formulations combine tretinoin and niacinamide to rely on the beneficial effects provided by these compounds, they do not adequately reduce the visible appearance of skin aging.
What is needed is an improved anti-aging cream formulation that reduces the visible appearance of skin aging.
The present disclosure provides anti-aging cream formulations containing at least tretinoin; niacinamide; hyaluronic acid; collagen; red wine extract; α-tocopheryl acetate; Butyrospermum parkii (shea butter) extract, and Argania spinosa kernel oil; and suspendisse cream.
In one embodiment, the anti-aging cream formulation contains: from about 0.03 to about 0.07 w/w % of tretinoin; from about 3.5 to about 4.5 w/w % of niacinamide; from about 0.2 to about 0.7 w/w % of hyaluronic acid; from about 0.04 to about 0.065 w/w % of collagen; from about 1.5 to about 2.5 w/w % of red wine extract; from about 0.05 to about 0.4 w/w % of α-tocopheryl acetate; and the remainder in w/w % of suspendisse cream.

The general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention, as defined in the appended claims. Other aspects of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art in view of the detailed description of the invention as provided herein.
Each of the individual embodiments described and illustrated herein have discrete components and features which may be readily separated from or combined with the features of any of the other several embodiments without departing from the scope or spirit of the present invention. Any recited method may be carried out in the order of events recited or in any other order which is logically possible.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can also be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, representative illustrative methods, and materials are now described.
Some of the quantitative expressions given herein are not qualified with the term “about.” It is understood that whether the term “about” is used explicitly or not, every quantity given herein is meant to refer to the actual given value, and it is also meant to refer to the approximation to such given value that would reasonably be inferred based on the ordinary skill in the art, including approximations due to the experimental and/or measurement conditions for such given value.
As used herein, the term “about” when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, is meant to encompass variations of ±20% or ±10%, more preferably ±5%, even more preferably ±1%, and still more preferably ±0.1% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate.
It is noted that, as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It is further noted that the claims may be drafted to exclude any optional element. As such, this statement is intended to serve as antecedent basis for use of such exclusive terminology as “solely,” “only” and the like in connection with the recitation of claim elements or use of a “negative” limitation.
Throughout the description and claims of this specification, the words “comprise” and “contain” and variations of the words, for example “comprising” and “comprises,” mean “including but not limited to,” and are not intended to (and do not) exclude other components.
As used herein, the term “consisting of” excludes any element, step, or ingredient not specified in the claim element.
Ranges: throughout this disclosure, various aspects of the invention can be presented in a range format. It should be understood that the description in range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible subranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 2.7, 3, 4, 5, 5.3, and 6. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range.
The term “treatment” as used within the context of the present invention is meant to include therapeutic treatment as well as prophylactic, or suppressive measures for the disease or disorder. As used herein, the term “treatment” and associated terms such as “treat” and “treating” means the reduction of the progression, severity and/or duration of a disease condition or at least one symptom thereof. The term “treatment” therefore refers to any regimen that can benefit a subject. The treatment may be in respect of an existing condition or may be prophylactic (preventative treatment). Treatment may include curative, alleviative or prophylactic effects. References herein to “therapeutic” and “prophylactic” treatments are to be considered in their broadest context. The term “therapeutic” does not necessarily imply that a subject is treated until total recovery. Similarly, “prophylactic” does not necessarily mean that the subject will not eventually contract a disease condition. Thus, for example, the term treatment includes the administration of an agent prior to or following the onset of a disease or disorder thereby preventing or removing all signs of the disease or disorder. As another example, administration of the agent after clinical manifestation of the disease to combat the symptoms of the disease comprises “treatment” of the disease.
