摘要:
The present invention relates to skin care compositions containing combinations of skin care actives and to methods of using such compositions to regulate the condition of skin. The compositions contain a safe and effective amount of amount of a peptide active selected from the group consisting of pentapeptides, derivatives of pentapeptides, and mixtures thereof; a safe and effective amount of at least one additional skin care active; and a dermatologically acceptable carrier.
摘要:
The present invention relates to oil-in-water emulsion compositions that are useful for personal cleansing and for depositing an active ingredient upon the skin surface. The active ingredient in these compositions has a solubility parameter from about 7 to about 13. A preferred active ingredient is salicylic acid.
摘要:
The present invention relates to leave on, oil-in-water, skin care compositions, comprising: (A) from about 0.05% to about 20% of an acidic active ingredient, preferably having a solubility parameter from about 6 to about 12; (B) from about 0.1% to about 25% of alkoxylated alcohols, alkoxylated polyols, and mixtures thereof; (C) from about 1% to about 20% of an acid stable, hydrophobic, structuring agent selected from the group consisting of saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.30 fatty alcohols, saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.30 fatty alcohols containing from about 1 to about 5 moles of ethylene oxide, saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.30 diols, saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.30 monoglycerol ethers, saturated C.sub.16 to C.sub.30 hydroxy fatty acids, and mixtures thereof, having a melting point of at least about 45.degree. C.; (D) from about 0.05% to about 10% of an acid stable, hydrophilic surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic, cationic, zwitterionic, nonionic surfactant, and mixtures thereof; and (F) from about 25% to about 99.7% water; wherein the pH of the composition is about 3.5 or less. These cosmetic compositions provide improved physical and chemical stability, while providing good skin deposition and good skin penetration of the active ingredients, while also providing low dermal irritation.
摘要:
The invention involves pharmaceutical compositions for topical application comprising: (a) a safe and effective amount of a pharmaceutical active; and (b) from about 0.05% to about 5% of a non-ionic polyacrylamide having a molecular wight of from about 1,000,000 to about 30,000,000.
摘要:
The present invention relates to non-abrasive personal care cleansing compositions. These compositions utilize insoluble micronized cleansing particles of defined particle size that are not tactilely perceived by the user during the cleansing process, and yet which provide improved cleansing performance from the composition. These compositions also comprise a surfactant, an emollient and water.
摘要:
Personal care compositions comprise (a) from about 0.01 wt. % to about 10 wt. % of a galactomannan polymer derivative having a mannose to galactose ratio of greater than 2:1 on a monomer to monomer basis, the galactomannan polymer derivative selected from a cationic galactomannan polymer derivative and an amphoteric galactomannan polymer derivative having a net positive charge, wherein the cationic galactomannan polymer has a molecular weight from about 1,000 to about 10,000,000 and a cationic charge density from about 0.7 meq/g to about 7 meq/g; (b) from about 5 wt. % to about 35 wt. % of an anionic surfactant system, the anionic surfactant system comprising at least one anionic surfactant and having an ethoxylate level and an anion level, (i) wherein the ethoxylate level is from about 1 to about 6, and (ii) wherein the anion level is from about 1.5 to about 6; and (c) an aqueous carrier. Personal care compositions as described above further comprise from about 0.01 wt. % to about 10 wt. % of one or more conditioning agents. Methods of treating hair or skin comprise applying the personal care compositions as described above to the hair or skin and rinsing the hair or skin.
摘要:
Anhydrous, solid antiperspirant compositions comprising: (a) from about 0.1% to about 30% by weight of the composition, of a high-efficacy antiperspirant active; (b) from about 0.1% to about 35% by weight of the composition, of a thickening agent; (c) from about 10% to about 99% by weight of the composition, of an anhydrous liquid carrier; (d) from about 5 ppm to about 20% by weight of the composition, of a primary fragrance; and (e) from at least about 5 ppm by weight of the composition, of a secondary fragrance that is distinct from the primary fragrance and is included in a surfactant-free, water-releasable matrix, which renders the secondary fragrance within the matrix substantially odorless prior to aqueous activation, wherein the anhydrous, solid antiperspirant composition exhibits an Antiperspirant Efficacy Index of at least about 0.9, and wherein the anhydrous, solid antiperspirant composition is substantially devoid of a malodor reducing agent.
