Abstract

The present invention relates to compositions comprising banyan tree, lotus, and clover serum fractions. A method of improving the appearance of a hyperpigmented spot may comprise the step of applying a composition comprising an effective amount of banyan tree serum fraction, lotus serum fraction, and clover serum fraction to a hyperpigmented spot on a skin surface, wherein the composition is applied for a period of time sufficient to improve the appearance of the hyperpigmented spot. The method may include the step of identifying a hyperpigmented spot on a facial skin surface. Other methods as disclosed include a method for improving the appearance of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A serum fraction blend suitable for use in formulating topically applied skin compositions, said blend comprising:
a. Banyan tree serum fraction;
b. Lotus serum fraction; and
c. Clover serum fraction, wherein said serum fraction blend is effective in inhibiting melanin synthesis, wherein the percentage of melanin synthesis inhibition for said serum fraction blend is greater than the percentage of melanin synthesis inhibition for each of the individual serum fraction blend components when added together.

2. The serum fraction blend of claim 1 , wherein each of said banyan tree, lotus, and clover serum fractions are produced by the process comprising:
a. separating plant cell juice from clean, fresh, un-wilted plant matter to obtain fresh plant cell juice, wherein no exogenous liquid is added prior or during said separating;
b. filtering said fresh plant cell juice to obtain fiber-free cell juice; and
c. fractionating said fiber-free cell juice to obtain said serum fractions.

3. The serum fraction blend of claim 1 which comprises:
a. from 0.001% to 15% Banyan tree serum fraction;
b. from 0.001% to 15% Lotus serum fraction; and
c. from 0.001% to 15% Clover serum fraction.

4. The serum fraction blend of claim 1 which comprises:
a. from 0.002% to 10% Banyan tree serum fraction;
b. from 0.002% to 10% Lotus serum fraction; and
c. from 0.002% to 10% Clover serum fraction.

5. The serum fraction blend of claim 1 which comprises:
a. from 0.025% to 10% Banyan tree serum fraction;
b. from 0.025% to 10% Lotus serum fraction; and
c. from 0.025% to 10% Clover serum fraction.

6. The serum fraction blend of claim 1 which comprises:
a. from 0.05% to 5% Banyan tree serum fraction;
b. from 0.05% to 5% Lotus serum fraction; and
c. from 0.05% to 5% Clover serum fraction.
