Compositions are provided that provide release of insect repellant or fragrance over an extended period of time. The compositions comprise a hydrophilically-modified cross-linked silicone elastomer and an acrylic rheology modifier.

Described herein are methods and formulations for treating, inhibiting, or ameliorating cellulite. Aspects described herein relate to formulations including a saline solution, reactive oxygen species, a rheology agent, an emollient, and a pH modifier and methods of using these formulations for treating, ameliorating, or inhibiting cellulite.

A method for skin care and/or maintenance including applying or administering a preparation to a subject is provided. The preparation includes a biomedical composition, and the biomedical composition includes an effective amount of micelle, wherein the micelle includes a hyaluronic acid and/or a derivative thereof and a modified histidine. The modified histidine is grafted to at least one primary hydroxyl group of the hyaluronic acid and/or the derivative thereof, and a graft ratio of the modified histidine is 1-100%. Moreover, the hyaluronic acid and/or the derivative thereof and the modified histidine form the micelle on a weight percentage of 0.2-300:1.

Method for simultaneously and permanently reshaping and coloring keratin fibers, particularly human hairs, in a single process in which the keratinic fibers are first waved by means of a foam-type waving agent (M1) and then lightened or colored by means of a foam-type coloring agent (M2). The permanent wave is simultaneously fixed by the oxidizing agent included in the oxidative dyeing agent. The method according to the invention brings about a uniform waving and coloring result and causes little or no damage to the hair.

Disclosed are personal care formulations for delivery to the skin of a person in the form of an aerosol comprising: (1) non-propellant components comprising at least one active ingredient in the form of finely divided particles, at least one hydrophobized clay, a hydrophobic carrier comprising trans-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (trans-1233zd) and at least one co-carrier wherein: (i) the weight ratio of said trans-1233zd:co-carrier is from about 0.25:1 to about 4:1; (ii) said trans-1233zd and said co-carrier together comprise at least about 40% by weight of said hydrophobic carrier.

An antidandruff composition includes about 0.1 to about 1% by weight of a natural oil containing a mixture of C12 and C14 alkyl groups derived from coconut oil; about 6% by weight of a non-ionic surfactant having at least 16 carbon atoms; about 2% by weight of an antidandruff agent; about 1.5% by weight of a cationic surfactant; about 1.5% by weight of a quaternary ammonium salt; and at least 75% by weight of water. A method of making an antidandruff composition includes combining a natural oil containing a mixture of C12 and C14 alkyl groups, a non-ionic surfactant having at least 16 carbon atoms, an antidandruff agent, a cationic surfactant, a quaternary ammonium salt, and water, forming the antidandruff composition.

The invention relates to water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion compositions for hair, eyelashes and/or eyebrows including at least one low HLB surfactant, at least one silicone gum, and at least one siloxysilicate resin, as well as to methods of making and using such emulsions. Preferably, the composition is a composition for eyelashes, for example a mascara composition further including at least one colorant.

Provided are compositions including at least one Dead Sea extract and at least one extract of the Apple of Sodom (Calotropis Procera). Further provided are formulations including the compositions and their uses.
