First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A personal care composition comprising (i) an extract of Aloe vera; and (ii) a hyaluronic acid polymer having a molecular weight from 5 to 60 kDa, the hyaluronic acid having the monomeric structure; wherein the extract of Aloe vera comprises 60 to 95% by weight of hydrolysed polysaccharides having a molecular weight in the range of 2 to 3 kDa and 0.1 to 20% by weight polyphenols. 2 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the polysaccharides are hydrolysed by trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) 3 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the extract of Aloe vera comprises 0.1 to 2% by weight polyphenols. 4 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising higher than 30% by weight of polysaccharide comprising the polymer backbone 5 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the hyaluronic acid polymer has a molecular weight from 45 KDa to 55 kDa. 6 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising 0.1 to 10% by weight extract of Aloe vera. 7 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising 0.1 to 10% by weight hyaluronic acid polymer. 8 . A composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising a cosmetically acceptable base. 9 . A method of providing enhanced immunity to an external surface of a human or animal body comprising the step of applying a composition as claimed in claim 1 .
