Abstract:
Skin-tightening compositions for providing a physical tightening effect to the skin and methods for using the same. The compositions may be in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion and include about 0.1 wt. % to about 6 wt. % of sodium silicate; at least 3 wt. % to about 11.5 wt. % of magnesium aluminum silicate; about 1 wt. % to about 15 wt. % of one or more fatty compounds; about 0.1 to about 20 wt. % of one or more nonionic emulsifiers; about 1 to about 25 wt. % of one or more polyols; and about 50 to about 90 wt. % of water, wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of the composition. The weight ratio of the sodium silicate to magnesium aluminum silicate is from 0.08 to 1.0 and a total amount of sodium silicate and magnesium aluminum silicate is 3 wt. % to 13 wt. %.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to sunscreen compositions having a synergistic combination of ultraviolet light (UV) filtering agents that provide a high sun protection factor (SPF). Compositions according to the disclosure have high SPF values without requiring high overall amounts of UV filtering agents. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to methods of using the described compositions for protecting keratinous substances such as skin and hair from UV radiation.
Abstract:
The instant disclosure relates to sunscreen compositions. The sunscreen compositions include (a) at least one UV filter (b) at least one booster, (c) at least one thermosensitive polymer, and (d) at least one wetting agent. Sunscreen compositions comprising components (a)-(d) exhibit a surprisingly high sun protection factor (SPF). The disclosure further relates to methods of using the sunscreen compositions for protecting keratinous substances such as skin and hair from UV radiation.

Abstract:
A cosmetic composition and a method for forming a water resistant cosmetic composition are disclosed. The composition includes a salt activatable component combination having a holoside compound and an alginate compound. The composition also includes at least one cosmetic active agent. The composition has an increased salt water resistance when the salt activatable component combination is activated by a salt activator compared to a composition without said salt activatable component combination.

Abstract:
A cosmetic composition for improved penetration of skin active agents including about 0.1 to about 10 wt. % of C-glycoside; about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate; about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of sodium polyacrylate; and water, wherein the cosmetic composition is an oil-in-water emulsion, and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition. Methods for treating damaged skin with cosmetic compositions are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A system for recommending ultraviolet protection for a subject's skin includes an interrogation device, an analysis device, and an output device. The interrogation device has an ultraviolet sensitive module configured to generate interrogation data based on sensed electromagnetic energy reflected by the subject's skin in response to irradiation of the subject's skin by an ultraviolet electromagnetic energy source. The analysis device is configured to receive the interrogation data from the interrogation device and generate an ultraviolet analysis, which includes a recommendation for further ultraviolet protection of the subject's skin, based at least in part on the interrogation data. The output device receives the ultraviolet analysis and outputs the recommendation for further ultraviolet protection of the subject's skin.
