A dissolvable solid fibrous shampoo article made from a plurality of fibrous elements intertangled or otherwise associated with one another to form the fibrous article. The fibrous elements can contain a polymeric structurant, a surfactant system that is substantially free of sulfate-based surfactants, and a pH adjuster that is a monoprotic organic acid and/or a coating comprising an additive that can be a hydratrope or a diprotic and triprotic organic acid and salts thereof.

Cosmetics that impart physical resilience and visually smooth-textured appearance to skin, by forming a non-sticky, flexible, and rupture-free makeup film on skin. The solution to the problem is a cosmetic containing cellulose nanofibers having an average fiber diameter of 10 to 1000 nm, in addition to a thickening stabilizer.

Suspensions can include a polar solvent, sulfonated polyester material dispersed in the polar solvent, and cellulose nanofibril material dispersed in the polar solvent. Suspensions disclosed and contemplated herein leverage polyester that can be used to independently control film formation and rheology. In some instances, polyesters used in suspensions disclosed herein can perform the role of two additives: aqueous thickener and film reinforcement

A method of making a bijel includes dispersing surface-active nanoparticles in a ternary liquid mixture. The ternary liquid mixture includes a hydrophilic liquid, a hydrophobic liquid, and a solvent. The ternary liquid mixture is contacted with water. A bijel includes a stable mixture of two immiscible liquids separated by an interfacial layer of colloidal particles. The bijel has temperature-independent stability, and the domain sizes are below one micrometer.

Disclosed are hair care and hair cleansing compositions as well as skin care and skin cleansing compositions comprising a fibrous material of natural origin and obtained from plants. The fibrous material comprises micro-scaled and/or nano-scaled fibril agglomerates. Such compositions show pleasant skin feel and comfort during and after application, as well as fast drying and fast absorption into skin. The compositions obtained are also particularly well suited for the topical delivery of cosmetic and pharmaceutical active substances into skin. Additionally, a method to obtain said hair care or hair cleansing composition or said skin care or skin cleansing composition is disclosed.

To provide a cosmetic that suppresses greasiness and siphons continuously during a dispenser operation. Also, to provide a cosmetic for use in a warmed state, the cosmetic having temperature responsiveness and high high-temperature stability. The cosmetic contains (A) a hydrophobically modified polyether urethane, (B) cellulose nanofibers, and (C) water, wherein: when the blend ratio of (A) and (B) is such that (A)<(B), the amount of (A)+(B) blended is 0.75% by mass or less relative to the total cosmetic; when the blend ratio of (A) and (B) is such that (A)=(B), the amount of (A)+(B) blended is 1.75% by mass or less relative to the total cosmetic; and when the blend ratio of (A) and (B) is such that (A)>(B), the amount of (A)+(B) blended is 2% by mass or less relative to the total cosmetic.

Methods involving: A) placing one or more solid materials on a skin surface; after step A), B) electrostatically spraying a composition X comprising (a) one or more volatile substances selected from water, an alcohol, and a ketone and (b) a polymer having a coating forming ability directly on the skin to thereby form a coating on the skin surface; and after step B) or before step A), C) applying a composition Y, other than the composition X, comprising one or more components selected from the group consisting of (c) an adhesive polymer and (d) an oil component (d) to the skin, are useful for producing a wearable coating having a solid material fixed on skin.

Provided is a coating having a uniform and strong UV protective effect over the entire skin. A method for producing a UV protective coating on skin comprising a step of applying a composition comprising a UV protective agent to the skin, and a step of electrostatically spraying a composition comprising component (a) and component (b) directly onto the skin to form a coating on the skin, in this order or vice versa: (a) one or more volatile substances selected from the group consisting of water, an alcohol and a ketone, (b) a polymer having a film-forming ability.

Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a fluoride ion source. Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a high average fluoride ion uptake. Oral care compositions with one or more web forming materials, a calcium ion source, and a fluoride ion source with a high average fluoride uptake.

The present invention provides novel methods for repairing or reducing skin changes as well as systems, regimens, and cosmetic compositions thereof. The invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising electrospun polymer fibers, at least one active ingredient, and at least one cosmetically acceptable carrier is provided, wherein the electrospun fibers are dispersed in the composition. The composition is in form of a solution, suspension, lotion, cream, gel, emulsion, toner, ointment, paste, foam, hydrogel, film-forming product, or facial skin mask. The composition comprises at least one active ingredient and further comprises antioxidants, moisturizers, surfactants, or humectants.
