One embodiment of the invention is a topical entirety. composition for treating skin that comprises a therapeuti cally effective amount of at least one cannabinoid and a FIELD OF THE INVENTION therapeutically effective amount of a hydroxy acid in a topically acceptable carrier. The at least one cannabinoid and 0002 The present invention relates to the use of hydroxy at least one hydroxy acid may optionally be the only active acids and cannabinoids for skin care. ingredients of the composition. In one aspect of the inven tion, the cannabinoids are present in the topical composition BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION in a concentration between 0.1 and 30% by weight of the composition. Preferably, the cannabinoids are one or more 0003. The skin is the largest organ of the body, with a of a natural phytocannabinoid, an organic cannabinoid, an Surface area of 18 Square feet. In the epidermis, the kera endocannabinoid, a cannabinoid analog, a cannabinoid tinocytes produce keratin, a protein that gives skin its derivative, a synthetic cannabinoid and a cannabinoid recep strength and flexibility and waterproofs the skin surface. tor agonist. The hydroxy acid is an alpha hydroxy acid, a Collagen and elastic fibers in the dermis give strength to the beta hydroxy acid or a combination thereof. In one aspect of skin. The skin is continuously exposed to changes in the the invention, the hydroxy acid is an alpha hydroxy acid, and external environment, including oxidative insults, heat, cold, the alpha hydroxy acid is lactic acid, citric acid, glycolic UV radiation, injury, and mechanical stresses. The stratum acid, mandelic acid, benzylic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, corneum, composed of terminally differentiated keratino gluconolactone, galactonolactone, glucuronolactone, galac cytes, constitutes the natural barrier that prevents loss of turonolactone, gulonolactone, ribonolactone, Saccharic acid water and penetration of infectious agents, such as bacteria lactone, pantoylactone, glucoheptonolactone, mannonolac and viruses, and foreign particles.
