Researchers investigated solar radiation's effects on skin microbiome, discovering it can create a damaged skin barrier. The study proposes innovative sun protection methods that safeguard both skin integrity and microbiome balance.
The American Society for Photobiology's Biennial Conference will take place in downtown Chicago from July 27-30, 2024. The event features over 100 scientific sessions and various networking opportunities.
A new study has shown promising results for the use of enzymatically modified isoquercitrin (EMIQ) as an anti-aging ingredient in cosmetics. EMIQ was found to reduce facial trans-epidermal water loss and skin roughness, while improving skin elasticity in a 28-day clinical trial.
Four retinoids (RPalm, RP, HPR, and ROL) show anti-photoaging activities in vitro, while RPalm and RP are superior in a UVB-induced mice model. Topical application of these retinoids shows satisfactory biosafety without significant side effects.
