The invention claimed is: 1. A method of treating skin, the method comprising topically applying to oxidative damaged skin a composition comprising Hylocereus undatus fruit extract, Aloe barbadensis leaf extract, and methyldihydrojasmonate or panthenol, wherein topical application of the composition reduces oxidative damage in the skin. 2. The method of claim 1 , comprising: 0.0001 wt. % to 5 wt. % of the Hylocereus undatus fruit extract; 0.0001 wt. % to 5 wt. % of the Aloe barbadensis leaf extract; and 0.0001 wt. % to 5 wt. % of methyldihydrojasmonate or panthenol. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein topical application of the composition to the skin also moisturizes the skin. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the oxidative damaged skin comprises inflamed skin. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises methyldihydrojasmonate. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises panthenol. 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the Hylocereus undatus fruit extract is a water extract of Hylocereus undatus fruit, wherein the Hylocereus undatus fruit extract comprises water, glycerin, and preservatives; and the Aloe barbadensis leaf extract is an aqueous extract of the leaves of Aloe barbadensis , wherein the Aloe barbadensis extract comprises water and butylene glycol. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as an emulsion or a gel. 9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the emulsion is an oil-in-water emulsion. 10.

The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises glycerin, disodium EDTA, at least one pH adjuster, and at least one preservative. 12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP copolymer. 13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises water, butylene glycol, glycerin, and at least one preservative. 14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, acrylates copolymer, and cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine. 15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition is formulated as a surfactant-based gel. 16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, carbomer, and triethanolamine. 17.
