Abstract

A low molecular weight fraction of gugulipid as antisebum and/or antioxidant active in cosmetic skin care compositions and methods. The low molecular weight fraction is capable of delivering dual benefit to the skin: controlling or preventing sebum secretion (oily skin conditions) and protecting the skin from free radical damage.
