The cosmetic composition may be a single phase, water-based composition, and is free or essentially free of silicones.
Abstract:
A self-foaming cleansing composition are provided. The self-foaming composition includes a) from about 0.5% to about 10% wt. % of one or more volatile silicone oils; b) from about 0.5% to about 25% wt. % of one or more surfactants stable at low pH; c) from about at least 1.2% of one or more polymers with suspending properties; d) from about 0.5% to about 5% wt% of one or more thickeners; e) from about 0.5% to about 15% wt. % of one organic acid as cosmetic active ingredient; the self-foaming cleansing composition having a pH in between about 3.4 and 5; the self-foaming cleansing composition starting to foam immediately after application of the compositions onto the skin; wherein the foaming cleansing composition is free of perfluoro compound; and wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of the self-foaming cleansing composition.
Abstract:
An organic UVA filter-stabilized antioxidant system demonstrates stabilization after UV exposure as compared with controls lacking the UVA filter stabilizer. The organic UVA filter-stabilized antioxidant system provides a cosmetic composition that confers preserved and sustained antioxidant efficacy to keratinous tissue. The antioxidant system includes a combination of at least one hydroxycinnamate derivative, and an organic, water-soluble UVA filter in a water-based carrier.
Abstract:
A photostable UV-A/UV-B-sunscreen composition is provided. The composition includes an oil in water or water in oil emulsion, wherein the emulsion includes at least one photostabilizer having anti-oxidant properties, at least one SPF booster, and at least one UV-A filter and at least one UV-B filter. The UV-A/UV-B sunscreen composition is provided in which the composition is essentially free of oxybenzone.
Abstract:
A sunscreen composition containing: (a) a polyacrylate booster comprising at least one acrylates copolymer having a weight average molecular weight ranging from about 75,000 to 140,000 g/mol and a Tg ranging from −20 to 50 C; and (b) a UV filter system containing a combination of UV filters comprised of: octocrylene, avobenzone, octisalate, and homosalate, and optionally oxybenzone; wherein the ratio of each filter relative to avobenzone is as follows: the ratio of octocrylene to avobenzone is 1.6:1.0 to 2.4:1.0, the ratio of oxybenzone to avobenzone 0.0:1.0 to 0.016:1.0, the ratio of octisalate to avobenzone is 1.3:1.0 to 2.0:1.0, and the ratio of homosalate to avobenzone is 2.3:1.0 to 3.6:1
