Abstract

A bioactive composition and method of using the composition is provided having anti-aging, antioxidant and/or free radical scavenging properties.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A bioactive composition comprising:
 a. an effective amount of a bioactive blend selected from:
 i. a first composition comprising a combination of a  camellia  serum fraction and a feverfew serum fraction, or 
 ii. a second composition comprising a combination of a parsley serum fraction and a kelp serum fraction; and/or combinations thereof, and optionally, 
   b. a dermatologically acceptable carrier.   
     
     
         2 . The bioactive composition of  claim 1 , wherein the first composition comprises:
 a. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the  camellia  serum fraction; and   b. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the feverfew serum fraction,   wherein the wt % is based on the total weight of the composition.   
     
     
         3 . The bioactive composition of  claim 2 , wherein a weight ratio of the  camellia  serum fraction to the feverfew serum fraction ranges from about 10:90 to about 90:10. 
     
     
         4 . The bioactive composition of  claim 2 , wherein a weight ratio of the  camellia  serum fraction to the feverfew serum fraction ranges from about 20:80 to about 80:20. 
     
     
         5 . The bioactive composition of  claim 2 , wherein a weight ratio of the  camellia  serum fraction to the feverfew serum fraction is about 50:50 to about 80:20. 
     
     
         6 . The bioactive composition of  claim 2 , further comprising a thickening agent. 
     
     
         7 . The bioactive composition of  claim 1 , wherein the second composition comprises:
 a. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the parsely serum fraction; and   b. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the kelp serum fraction,   wherein the wt % is based on the total weight of the composition.   
     
     
         8 . The bioactive composition of  claim 7 , wherein the weight ratio of the parsley serum fraction to the kelp serum fraction ranges from about 10:90 to about 90:10. 
     
     
         9 . The bioactive composition of  claim 7 , wherein a weight ratio of the parsley serum fraction to the kelp serum fraction ranges from about 30:70 to about 70:30. 
     
     
         10 . The bioactive composition of  claim 7 , wherein a weight ratio of the parsley serum fraction to the kelp serum fraction is about 50:50. 
     
     
         11 . The bioactive composition of  claim 7 , further comprising a thickening agent. 
     
     
         12 . The bioactive composition of  claim 1  comprising a combination of the first composition and the second composition. 
     
     
         13 . The bioactive composition of  claim 12 , wherein the first composition comprises:
 a. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the  camellia  serum fraction, and   b. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the feverfew serum fraction; and   wherein the second composition comprises:   c. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the parsely serum fraction, and   d. from about 0.001 wt % to about 15 wt % of the kelp serum fraction,   wherein the wt % is based on the total weight of the composition.   
     
     
         14 . The biologically active composition of  claim 1  wherein said material possesses one or more of the following properties: anti-aging, antioxidant and/or free radical scavenging, inhibition of enzymes associated with skin aging and environmental damage, skin protection, repair of human tissue or skin, UV protection, and protection from ozone and/or osmotic shock. 
     
     
         15 . The biologically active composition of  claim 14  wherein said biologically active composition has hair and/or skin anti-aging activity.
