COLOR CORRECTING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
Compositions and methods of for changing the color of skin or body are described.
1 . A method of enhancing or providing a benefit to skin comprising the steps of:
a) applying a benefit-inducing layer to the skin;
b) applying a reactive reinforcing component to said benefit-inducing layer; and
c) applying a reactive reinforcing component to said reactive reinforcing component, wherein said cross-linking component facilitates in situ cross-linking of the reactive reinforcing component and the benefit-inducing layer, thereby enhancing or providing a benefit to skin.
2 . A method of changing the color of skin comprising the steps of:
a) applying a color corrective composition to the skin;
b) applying a reactive reinforcing component to color corrective composition; and
c) applying a cross-linking component to said reactive reinforcing component, wherein said cross-linking component facilitates in situ cross-linking of the reactive reinforcing component and the color corrective composition, thereby changing the color of the skin.
3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the color corrective composition comprises:
a) a foundation component;
