Abstract

The invention relates to a cosmetic based on various natural raw materials, which can be used to counter ageing processes of the human skin. The inventive cosmetic contains 0.1-5% by weight of an extract from a mixture of fig leaves and fruits, 0.1-3% by weight of an extract from pomegranate fruits, 0.001-0.5% by weight of a ground dry mixture of rosemary stems and leaves, 0.01-3% by weight of liposomes containing an extract from peeled musk melons, 0.1-5% by weight of liposomes containing a plankton extract containing the photolyase enzyme, 0.1-5% by weight of liposomes containing 0.1 to 0.5% by weight, in relation to the liposome weight, of a micrococcus lysate containing the UV-endonuclease enzyme; and up to 100% by weight, other active substances, carrier substances, adjuvants or mixtures thereof.
