dc.description.abstract

Compositions for enhanced UV-protective agents that increase immuno-responsiveness by providing cytoprotective additives for mammalian skin while also providing avoidance from endocrine disrupting agents are described. A composition comprising:(a) at least one inorganic sun-blocking agent, (b) optionally at least one non-endocrine disrupting sunscreen agent, (c) at least one non-endocrine disrupting emollient with or mixtures thereof and (d) an optional oil component comprising a carrier oil, preferably an essential oil of a naturally occurring substance and a method of making this and other versions of similar compositions is detailed. The compositions areas shown to be capable of protecting skin and mammalian health from the harmful effects of radiation including ultraviolet light or sunlight by inhibiting the loss of skin immunocompetency and eliminating any endocrine disrupting agents normally utilized as sunscreen agents.
