High phospholipid-containing dermatological compositions

A composition is described for cosmetic and/or pharmaceutical treatment of the outermost layers of the epidermis by topical application to the skin. The preparation comprises a relatively high amount of phospholipids that applies a thin monomolecular layer to the skin, permitting natural hydration. The chemical composition of the phospholipids provides antioxidant protection and natural sun-blocking effects. All natural oils are incorporated into the phospholipid phase. Since no synthetic emulsifiers or harsh alcohols are used in the composition, it is non-irritating to the skin. Moreover, the cosmetics of the present invention exhibit both good emulsion stability and storage stability while providing a good skin feel.
