Abstract
Cosmetic methods for improving the microparasol organization in keratinocytes, protecting skin against ultraviolet radiation, decreasing DNA photodamage in keratinocytes and melanocytes, attenuating age-related pigmentation defects and the effects of photoaging on the skin are described. The methods include applying a composition comprising a peptide compound of one of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO: 3, SEQ ID NO: 4, SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO: 6, or SEQ ID NO: 7, and a cosmetically acceptable medium to appendages or to the affected skin of a subject in need thereof.
