The anti-skinaging effects on woman's skin were investigated with inositol-hexaphosphoric acid(IP_6). The concentrations (wt%) of IP_6 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.0. The IP_6-skin lotions were applied on the arms and face of the subjects everyday for 7 weeks. The moisture, lightening, sebum, elasticity and wrinkle of the skin were measured. The experimental instruments were corneometer, sebumeter, autometer, mexameter. MX-16 and image analyzer. It showed that IP_6 substantially improved the subject's skin condition. The moisture value changed from 47 to 89, the sebum values of dry and oily skins changed close to that of normal skins, lightening of the skin changed from 490 to 461, elasticity changed from 0.118 to 0.134, and the improvement on wrinkle was 12.9%. With the experimental results the 0.4-IP_6 skin lotion showed the best results.
