Abstract

A cream moisturizer for resurfacing human skin is provided with a suspension of microcrystals of alumina (Al2O3) in a ratio of approximately 14 grams per ounce of moisturizer cream. The cream moisturizer is buffed into the epidermal layer of the skin with a closed-cell sponge pad driven by a vibrator. The alumina microcrystals buffs an epidermal layer off the skin to provide a soft smooth surface, thereby rejuvenating the skin.
