A method for treating skin of a person is disclosed. The method can include topically applying to the skin of the person a composition comprising an effective amount of an aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic extract from Vinca major, wherein the composition reduces melanin production in the skin, increases antioxidant activity in the skin, and/or increases skin moisture content.

A method for treating skin of a person is disclosed. The method can include topically applying to the skin of the person a composition comprising an effective amount of an aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic extract from Bougainvillea glabra, wherein the composition reduces tyrosinase activity or melanin production in the skin.

The method can include topically applying to the skin of the person a composition comprising an effective amount of an aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic extract from Bougainvillea glabra, wherein the composition reduces tyrosinase activity or melanin production in the skin.

The invention relates to biotechnology, pharmacy, cosmetology and veterinary medicine, and can be used in the manufacture of therapeutic, prophylactic, cosmetic, and sanitary and hygienic products such as sprays for air treatment, as well as gels, balms, lotions and liquids for impregnating antiseptic and immune-enhancing wipes, which do not cause side effects.

The technical problem solved by the proposed technical solution consists in increasing the aggregative stability and improving the organoleptic properties of the composition of essential oils and phytoextracts during dilution, storage, pressure increase, freezing while maintaining biological activity. The basic alcoholic-based composition for the preparation of a biologically active agent for the treatment of the human environment includes combinations of essential oils and phytoextracts at a total amount of up to 48%. Plants from the Labiatae and Compositae families rich in terpenoids, flavonoids, carotenoids and anthocyans are used as a source of essential oils and phytoextracts.

The proposed basic formulation of the composition is used to obtain agents for treating air of the indoor space by means of aerosol dispensers.

The finished products retain their biological activity during storage and use.

One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a composition for enhancing the skin barrier containing Abies sibirica oil as an active ingredient, wherein Abies sibirica oil reacts with the fragrance receptor OR6M1 present in epidermal cells to enhance the skin barrier, restore the damaged skin barriers and enhance the skin moisturizing.
