摘要:
A cosmetic composition is provided which includes a C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acid and a C.sub.16 -C.sub.20 alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acid delivered in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Most preferred as the longer chain acids is a mixture fractionated from lanolin. The cosmetic composition can be employed in a method for treating dermatological disorders, chronoaging and environmental abuse. Preferably the composition is intended to inhibit or reduce the formation of wrinkles and sagging of skin while improving glow and firmness.

A cosmetic product, particularly for the eye, is provided which includes a container, an absorbent pad with printing on at least one major surface, and a fluid cosmetic composition, the pad and composition being held within the container. The cosmetic composition is primarily water, especially amounts of water in excess of 90%. Most preferred as a substrate for the pad is a non-woven polyester. A cucumber slice design is the most preferred print on the pad. A method is also provided which reduces puffiness, soothes the eye and lessens dark circles around the eye. This method involves applying the aforementioned cosmetic composition via the pad onto the eye and its surrounding area.
摘要:
A self-tanning cosmetic product is provided for imparting a natural-appearing tan to skin. Besides the self-tanning agent, compositions of this invention will include a crosslinked non-emulsifying siloxane elastomer and a volatile siloxane.
摘要:
A method and composition is provided for treating skin to achieve lightening by employing an active of the structure: ##STR1## wherein R is selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alkyl, cycloalkyl and aryl radicals. Most preferred is acetaminophen.
摘要:
A cosmetic composition is provided which includes ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) solubilized by a crosslinked non-emulsifying siloxane elastomer in a carrier medium of a volatile siloxane. Aesthetic properties are also improved by the presence of the crosslinked non-emulsifying siloxane elastomer.
摘要:
A cosmetic product is provided for removing keratotic skin plugs. The product includes a flexible non-occlusive substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an anionic or nonionic polymer is deposited. The composition is treated to become dry non-tacky to the touch yet upon being wetted for use the composition again turns tacky and mobile. The method of application involves either directly moistening the product or indirectly moistening by first wetting a consumer's face in an area where the product is applied. Thereafter, water is allowed to evaporate leaving a film to which the keratotic plugs are bonded. The film is then peeled away concommittingly removing the plugs.

A cosmetic product is provided for removing keratotic skin plugs. The product is a strip sealed for storage having 2 to 12% moisture within a pouch. The strip includes a flexible substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an adhesive polymer is deposited. The composition is treated to become dry non-tacky to the touch yet upon being wetted for use the composition again turns tacky and mobile. The method of application involves either directly moistening the product or indirectly moistening by first wetting a consumer's face in an area where the product is applied. Thereafter, water is allowed to evaporate leaving a film to which the keratotic plugs are bonded. The film is then peeled away concommittingly removing the plugs.
摘要:
A cosmetic composition is provided which includes ferulic acid or its C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alcohol esters and dimethyl isosorbide in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Dimethyl isosorbide enhances skin lightening, antioxidant and other skin activities of ferulic acid and its esters.

A method and composition is provided for treating skin to achieve lightening by employing an active of the structure: ##STR1## wherein R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy and C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alkyl or aryl groups radicals; and R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alkyl or aryl radicals.
摘要:
A cosmetic composition is provided which includes ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) stabilized by dimethyl isosorbide in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Among the preferred carriers are polyols such as polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol and mixtures thereof. Aesthetic properties are improved by the presence of a crosslinked non-emulsifying siloxane elastomer and a volatile siloxane.
