A liquid foamable composition that has from about 0.5% to about 7%, by weight, of surfactants that are cationic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, and mixtures thereof. The foamable composition contains from about 1% to about 15%, by weight, of a fatty alcohol, from about 5% to about 30%, by weight, of a skin care active, and water. The skin care active is preferably selected from the group consisting of niacinamide, hexyldecanol, a peptide, panthenol, undeylenoyl phenylalanine, retinyl propionate and mixtures thereof.

The present invention relates to a hair removal and fluid application device (1), having a hair removal means (2), a fluid dispensing means (3), a fluid reservoir (10) and a handle (4). The device has a proximal end and a distal end comprising said hair removal means and said fluid dispensing means (3), preferably wherein said handle (4) provides a predetermined location of said hair removal means (2) and said fluid dispensing means (3) with respective to one another.

The invention relates to a cosmetic emulsion.

The invention relates to a cosmetic emulsion.

The invention relates to lamellar liquid composition comprising acyl isethionate, methyl acyl taurate, amphoteric and/or zwitterionic surfactant. Unexpectedly, applicants have found that, when ratio of isethionate to taurate is kept at about to 1:1, enhanced lather is achieved. Other criticalities include ratio of amphoteric and/or zwitterionic to anionic surfactant, total amount of surfactant, and pH.

The present invention relates to pre-formulations comprising low viscosity, non-liquid crystalline, mixtures of: a) at least one neutral diacyl lipid and/or at least one tocopherol; b) at least one phospholipid; c) at least one biocompatible, oxygen containing, low viscosity organic solvent; wherein at least one bioactive agent is dissolved or dispersed in the low viscosity mixture and wherein the pre-formulation forms, or is capable of forming, at least one liquid crystalline phase structure upon contact with an aqueous fluid. The preformulations are suitable for generating parenteral, non-parenteral and topical depot compositions for sustained release of active agents.

The invention additionally relates to a method of delivery of an active agent comprising administration of a preformulation of the invention, a method of treatment comprising administration of a preformulation of the invention and the use of a preformulation of the invention in a method for the manufacture of a medicament.

The present disclosure relates to a lyotropic liquid crystalline lipid carrier which is useful for the delivery of active agents. The present disclosure also relates to cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising the lipid carrier, and methods of using the lipid carrier or compositions thereof to treat, prevent or diagnose diseases, disorders or conditions such as cancer or bacterial or fungal infections.

This invention relates to hair care compositions containing a branched organopolysiloxane, oil in water emulsion. Despite the prior art, there still exists the opportunity to increase the benefits delivered through conditioning hair care compositions. A particular need exists for hair care compositions which can deliver enhanced silicone deposition, especially to the damaged parts of the hair. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a hair care composition which can deliver enhanced silicone deposition onto the hair, in particular damaged hair. It has been found that this can be achieved by a hair care composition comprising a conditioning gel phase with an aqueous emulsion of a branched organopolysiloxane comprising an aqueous continuous phase of water and a cationic surfactant or a blend of non-ionic and cationic surfactants and a dispersed phase of the branched organopolysiloxane and a hydrocarbon oil, and the aqueous emulsion having a particle size of 5 to less than 12 microns Dv(50).

A personal cleansing composition includes: (a) a surfactant system, wherein the surfactant system includes: from about 0.1% to about 5%, of a fatty acyl isethionate surfactant; from about 0.5% to about 40%, of a co-surfactant, wherein the co-surfactant is selected from the group consisting of an anionic surfactant being not an isethionate surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, a zwitterionic surfactant, and mixtures thereof; (b) from about 0.05% to about 5%, of a natural polysaccharide, a chemically modified natural polysaccharide, or a combination thereof; wherein the personal cleansing composition includes a first and second phase, wherein the first phase is an isotropic and micellar surfactant phase; wherein the second phase is a polymer liquid crystalline phase which includes polymer liquid crystals of the natural polysaccharide, the chemically modified natural polysaccharide, or the combination.
