The present disclosure is directed to a composition and method of enhancing skin health and appearance, as well as treating compromised skin, by applying onto the skin a composition containing a moisturizing/hydrating-effective amount of a mixture of at least: (a) an oil infusion of Calendula officinalis extract; (b) an oil infusion of Helichrysum italicum extract; (c) an oil infusion of Symphytum officinale extract; (d) an aqueous infusion of Viola tricolor extract; and (e) an aqueous infusion of at least one Mallow extract chosen from Malva sylvestris extract and Althea officinalis extract; and an emulsifying-effective amount of a dermatologically-acceptable emulsifier, wherein the composition is natural and free of a skin sensitizing-effective amount of an essential oil.

A gel composition comprising silicone crosspolymer and silicone oil wherein the composition when applied to the skin adheres to the skin with a work of adhesion of more than about 0.500 Newton.Math.sec when measured by TA.XT plus text analyzer using a mucoadhesive rig and forms a film with a coefficient of friction of less than 0.400 when measured by Automatic surface tester (method ASTM D 1894).

Compositions and methods are disclosed for facilitating dermal health, including compositions and methods specifically for reversing environmental and age-related damage to the skin, and for enhancing the healing of wounds in the skin. The composition may be a suspension for application proximal to an administration site in the skin, with the suspension comprising Swertia Chirata extract, Calanthe Discolor stein cell extract, Symphytum officinale stein cell extract, Argania spinosa callus culture extract, and silver nanoparticles. It may be seen that such a composition, and other contemplated compositions, may be operative, when applied as a suspension at the dermis in a therapeutically effective amount, to increase epidermal cell production, increase collagen and elastin production, and increase stein cell replication at the application site.

The present invention relates to new formulations, particularly useful in the topical treatment of skin and oromucosal wounds. Formulations can be either a solution or a gel form consisting of a Polyhexamethylene biguanide as an antimicrobial agent, purified water and a tri-blockcopolymer, particularly a triblockcopolymer of polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide, and more particularly a poloxamer.
