SKIN as an organ
The skin is the largest organ in the body and is more complex than it appears on the surface. It is constantly being exposed to environmental sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as Ultravoilet (UV) rays, Ozone, Halogenated hydrocarbons and smoke. The relationship between cantaneous oxidative damage induced by UV irradiation and ROS has been well documented The reflection of our external skin determines the internal heath of our skin. If we see changes in skin texture, loss of moisture, elasticity, pliability or in appearance of condition such as acne, eczema or psoriasis, all these point to underlying imbalances in the working of the body. The skin is composed of the outer epidermis and the underlying dermis. We can perceive the outer surface of the skin which protects us from light, heat, infections. The dermis is composed of connective tissue containing collagen and elastic fiber hair follicles, oil glands, the ducts of sweat glands and a small amount of fatty tissue. The collagens and the elastic fibers support our skin with its qualities like elasticity. It helps to get stretched and return to the original form. Oil glands secrete sebum, a substance that keeps the skin soft and pliable and prevents excessive moisture evaporation from the skins surface. Sweat glands secrete sweat and thus plays a major role in regulating the mechanism of body temperature and eliminating waste.
VITAMIN E phosphate
The beneficial use of vitamins in general, and specifically vitamin E, continues to be an active area in dermatology and cosmetic science. It is clear that vitamin E, especially in the form of -tocopherol, is a potent anti-oxidant and is widely used by the body to protect lipids in cell membranes from oxidative damage1. However, the role of vitamin E in skin is much less clear, both from an understanding of its intrinsic role as well as clear demonstration of clinically relevant, in-vivo benefits2. -Tocopherol is stored in the liver and adipose tissue. In the liver it is bound and transferred by a specific cytosolic protein, -tocopherol transfer protein (-TTP). When circulated through plasma, tocopherol is transported by several forms of lipoproteins including very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL)3. It is believed that most -tocopherol is delivered through HDLs to cells for use in the membrane or within the cell.4 It is not unreasonable to assume that when delivered topically, -tocopherol needs to associate with a transport protein to gain access to the dermis, especially the fibroblasts, unless some other delivery vehicle is provided in the formulation.5 Another significant formulation challenge is to keep -tocopherol stable until use. The most common approach is to use the ester -tocopheryl acetate. Although the ester is more stable than -tocopherol, it has a different efficacy profile. For instance, it has been shown that -TTP binds -tocopherol to an extent more than 50 times greater than -tocopheryl acetate.3 A second approach to vitamin and drug stabilization is phosphorylation.6 Phosphorylation is the transformation of an alcohol to a phosphate ester through transfer of a phosphoryl group (-PO3H2). Phosphorylation is commonly used by the body, usually through the phosphorylating agent adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Evidence has been found for tocopherol phosphate in common foods as well as present in humans, indicating that phosphorylation of tocopherol is a natural process.7 This study also showed that feeding with tocopherol phosphate enhances both tocopherol and tocopherol phosphate levels. It has also been shown that phosphorylated vitamin C is accumulated into cells as vitamin C.8 Phosphorylation does more than just provide a chemically stable storage form of Vitamin E. Tocopherol phosphate has been shown to have significant anti-proliferative activity for rat aortic smooth muscle cells in-vitro; this assay is used as a screen for agents to combat arteriosclerosis.7 Very recently, work in several laboratories has shown that tocopherol phosphate inhibits oxidized LDL uptake, another key process in arterial plaque formation.9

PHOTO aging
The aging process of the skin can be divided into intrinsic aging and photoaging. Damage to human skin due to repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun (photoaging) and damage occurring because of the passage of time (chronologic aging) are considered distinct entities rather than similar skin aging processes. Clinically naturally aged skin is smooth, pale, and finely wrinkled. In contrast, photoaged skin is coarsely wrinkled and associated with dyspigmentation and telangiectasia. The most dramatic histologic differences between intrinsic aging and photoaging occur within the dermis. Alternation in collagen is the basic cause of the clinical changes observed in photoaged and naturally aged skin. The collagen is of many types in which Type I and Type III are of importance. The dermis is predominately Type I collagen (85%-90%) with lesser amounts of Type III collagen (10%-15%). When our skin is exposed to ultra-violet rays, it has been observed that the biosynthesis of collagen gets hampered and there is an increase in the synthesis of matrix metalloproteinases which in turn destroys the collagen. It has been observed that collagen synthesis is more hampered due to exposure to ultra-violet rays. In a trial conducted in Japan10, it was well established that (UV) irradiation causes skin photo-damage, including dry skin. An application of novel water soluble Vitamin E prevented UV induced damages to the skin. In another trial it was established that the enhanced ability of Vitamin E phosphate to protect against ultraviolet B-induced skin damage the protection was greater than that seen with vitamin E acetate11. This result was due to Noval water soluble Vitamin E phosphate12.

VITAMIN E
Amongst the group of vitamins, Vitamin E has been a topic of discussion whether as a vitamin or as an antioxidant. From the Hope study for cardiovascular benefits to the protective effect against UV rays, Vitamin E had its journey proving its efficacy and safety. Vitamin E is the collective term for a family of chemical substances that are structurally and, in some cases, biologically related to the best known member of this family, alpha-tocopherols, a fat soluble vitamin. The Vitamin E family of molecules can be divided into two groups, the tocopherols and the tocotrienols. Naturally, Vitamin E exists in eight different forms: four tocopherols (alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol) and four tocotrienols (alpha- beta- gamma- and delta-tocotrienol). The difference between Tocopherols & Tocotrienols is in the chiral centers. Vitamin E is found in plants, animals and in some green, brown and blue/green algae. Vitamin E is also found in unrefined edible vegetable oils, including wheat germ, safflower, sunflower, cottonseed, canola and olive oil. The beneficial use of vitamins in general and specifically Vitamin E, continues to be an active area of discussion and in areas of research in dermatology as well as cosmetic science. It is clear that Vitamin E especially in the form of -tocopherol, is an extraordinary anti-oxidant14 and is widely used by the body to protect lipids in cell membranes from oxidative damage.

TOCOPHERYL PHOSPHATE
Bio-Available: No lag time to get absorbed. Immediately bio-available, it needs no enzymatic processing required to generate an active form unlike tocopherol acetate. Inhibits inflammation: Tocopheryl phosphate inhibits inflammatory pathways in human monocytes cell culture. Inhibits CD-3 mRNA & protein expressions.
Tocopheryl phosphate is a naturally occurring metabolically active tocopherol found in the tissue. It is also found in wheat germ oil and olive oil. When Vitamin E is used in a natural form, it has excellent absorption properties and helps to inhibit inflammatory pathways. The following benefits can be seen by using Tocopheryl phosphate

DISODIUM
Disodium laurimino dipropionate tocopheryl phosphate is a new unique bio-functional Vitamin E Phosphate complex which delivers proven antierythemal and antiinflammatory benefits in sun care skin treatment and colour cosmetics. The technology relies on a process known as phosphorylation, which increases the biological effectiveness of compounds by keeping them stable until needed by the body. The complexation of the phosphorylated compound allows more efficient delivery of the compound to the body topically. US clinical trials have shown much greater efficacy in both the prevention and amelioration of redness from UV exposure when topically applied to the skin at a level of 1% in an emulsion compared to Vitamin E Acetate.
CLINICAL benefits
In Vivo studies have demonstrated that the biological activity of tocopheryl phosphates described in the academic literature is effectively delivered to skin by Disodium laurimino dipropionate tocopheryl phosphate. The clinical studies show the significant efficacy of Disodium laurimino dipropionate tocopheryl phosphate as an effective active technology for 15 sensitive and irritated skin.

TOPICAL ANTIOXIDANT
concept
The primary functions of Vitamin E is protective. Vitamin E works in conjunction with other antioxidants. Vitamin E protects biological molecules and cell membranes from oxidative damage. When oxidative damage occurs to the membranes of cells, they lose their ability to regulate mineral movement in and out of their interior. Since control of mineral concentrations inside cells is critical for all cellular functions, Vitamin E, and other antioxidants must be maintained at physiologic levels in the skin to ensure normal cell functions. Low Vitamin E skin levels have been associated with an increased risk of developing premature skin aging. Recent research on Vitamin E which attracts the most interest is the prevention of lipid peroxidation. Alpha-tocopherol is the most active tocopherol against peroxyl radicals. The anti-oxidant activity of Vitamin E is based on the ease with which the hydrogen on the hydroxyl group of the chroman ring can be donated to neutralize a free radical. Human studies have convincingly demonstrated, pronounced photo-protective effects of natural and synthetic antioxidants when applied topically before UVR exposure. Particularly with respect to UVB-induced skin damage such as erythema formation, the photo-protective effects of antioxidants are significant when applied in distinct mixtures in appropriate vehicles. UVA-induced skin alterations are believed to be largely determined by oxidative processes. Topical administration of antioxidants might be particularly promising. In fact, topical application of antioxidants or antioxidant mixtures resulted in a remarkable increase in the minimal dose to induce immediate pigment darkening after UVA exposure and diminished the severity of UVA-induced photo-dermatoses in humans.
Though most people feel that they are having a balanced diet, the fact is that there are incidences reported of sub clinical nutritional deficiencies around the world. It is estimated that 50% of the US population has at least one or two marginal nutritional deficiencies regardless of socio-status. These deficiencies add to the aging process.Clinically proven topical antioxidants can halt the wrinkling of the skin. Antioxidants are substances that quench free radicals. Free radicals are molecules with unpaired electrons. Molecules are the basic building blocks in nature such as oxygen, fatty acid, amino acids, glucose and DNA. These molecules are together held with electrons. Stable molecules are held in pairs but if it is unpaired it becomes unstable and reactive. This reactive molecule part is known as a free radical. Antioxidants are compounds that sacrifice themselves to oxygen thus preventing it from reacting with other electrons. Functionally they protect the body but also stimulate immune response to fight existing diseases. The antioxidant activity of Vitamin E protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes from oxidation thus protecting cell membranes from destruction by free oxygen radicals. Vitamin E has specific binding sites on cell membranes especially the d-alpha tocopherol form.

In a clinical study performed to evaluate pre and post UV induced erythema observed that the average erythema score was less than 1% when compared to Vitamin E Acetate. The study protocol was as follows: Skin exposed to 2 MED of UV light on day 1, for 3 consecutive days with 150 ml product in cm2 occluded. The exposed part was evaluated against placebo, Vitamin E Acetate an Vitamin E Phosphate. Evaluation was done on the 4th day and it was observed that with Vitamin E Phosphate erythematic sore was less compared to Vitamin E Acetate.
Evidence has been found for the presence of tocopherol phosphate in common foods, plants such as almonds, apple, olive oil, spinach, peas, peanut, broccoli, sunflower seed, cheddar, chocolate, brie etc as well as in human tissues indicating that phosphorylation of tocopherol is a natural process. 7, 12 Since Vitamin E is found in Human body tissues and foods that we eat (human body needs 3 essentials - fats, protein & carbohydrates), it is safe on pregnant woman. No clinical study has been done, nor will ever be done on pregnant woman for Vitamin E or any other product.
Conclusion
Vitamin E Phosphate is effective at both prevention and remediation of the appearance of UV induced erythema for sensitive skin.

SODIUM-2-PYRROLIDONE CARBOXYLATE
The skin tone determines what color your stretch marks will be. The usually start as pink, reddish brown, or dark brown lines. The stretch marks could turn to red, dark red, or a purplish shade. As time goes by, stretch marks do natural fade to a few shades lighter than your natural skin tone, making them less noticeable.
Conventional cosmetic or therapeutic compositions permit the application of active agents to the skin. However, an application at skin level must resist environmental conditions and clothes friction. Conventional compositions exhibit poor resistance to such environmental conditions and must be reapplied frequently to achieve the desired purpose (cosmetic or therapeutic). Sodium PCA is a naturally occurring component of human skin that is believed to be in part responsible for its moisture-binding capacity. Sodium PCA builds skin moisture without adding oil. It softens, hydrates, reduces the scaling and flaking, common in dehydrated and oily complexions. It assists moisturisers and conditioners to maintain proper moisture levels. Sodium PCA, the salt of 2-pyrrolidone-5-carboxylic acid, functions as a humectant. It is typically used in concentrations of 2% or greater. Sodium PCA is an example of the attempt to duplicate the water-holding capacity of glycosaminoglycans in the dermis. It is hard to duplicate dermal constituents on the stratum corneum. Adding Sodium PCA enhances better and higher moisture uptake when compared to glycerin, propylene glycol and sorbitol. Sodium PCA is non irritating.
