Antiperspirant and/or deodorant compositions and methods for the same are provided. The compositions may include an antiperspirant active or a deodorant active, water, and a preservative system. The antiperspirant active may include aluminum, and the preservative system may include a biodegradable amino carboxylate. The methods may include substituting or replacing a conventional chelant, such as EDTA, with a biodegradable chelant, such as HIDS. The methods may also include applying one of the compositions to an axillary area of a person.

A skincare composition is provided, which comprises at least one clay, at least one first binding agent; and at least one second binding agent. The composition is to be used in a peristomal environment, and provides neutralization of stomal output.

A discrete dispensed product with a first portion and a second portion at least partially surrounding the first portion. The product provides a premium and distinct appearance to consumers.

A reconstitutable surfactant-based powder has good solubility in water and forms a stable gel when dispersed in water. The reconstitutable surfactant-based powder consists of a polymer/gum system and a dry powder extract.

The present invention relates to toiletry products and more particularly to shower products that are manufactured in shaped forms and/or comprise shaped gels. Certain embodiments relate to formulations for shower products comprising gelatin, water and surfactant wherein the shower product is in shaped gel form and/or comprises a shaped gel form. Other embodiments relate to shower products per se for example in shaped gel form and/or comprising shaped gel form. Further embodiments relate to a process for the manufacture of such formulations and shower products.

An aqueous formulation for topical application to the skin comprising water, a water-miscible organic solvent, and benzoyl peroxide, wherein the concentration of the organic solvent is sufficient to provide a stable suspension of benzoyl peroxide in the aqueous formulation without the inclusion of a surfactant in the formulation, wherein the ratio of concentrations of water and organic solvent in the formulation is sufficient to maintain the benzoyl peroxide in saturated solubility in the formulation following application to the skin, and wherein the concentration of benzoyl peroxide in the formulation is less than 5.0% and at least 1.0% w/w. The formulation may further contain a chemical compound in addition to benzoyl peroxide that is effective in the treatment of acne. The aqueous formulations of the invention are useful in the treatment of acne and acne rosacea.

The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating scars and a preparation method therefor. The composition, according to one aspect, comprises a pigment and silicone oil, and may be stably formulated into a formulation adequate for spreading on the skin, and may inhibit the formation of scars or reduce already existing scars by forming a membrane on the skin, and has an effect whereby scars may be concealed by the pigment stably dispersed in the composition.

A new type of biomaterial that can be generated from pollen, methods for its production, the various uses thereof in, for example, biological, medicinal, cosmetic, nutritional and printing applications and the materials/devices that comprise this new material are provided. The biomaterial comprises microgels of sporoderm polymer complex microcapsules (SPC-MCs), produced by deproteinizing the pollen from eudicot plants, in particular of genus Baccharis, Helianthus or Camellia, by contacting it with an aqueous base solution at elevated temperatures for up to 10 hours to obtain porous SPC-MCs, and hydrolytically degrading the SPC-MCs by contacting it with an aqueous base solution for periods up to 60 days to obtain microgels of SPC-MCs.

The invention relates to a Cleome droserifolia extract for topical application to the skin and/or mucous membranes. The invention also relates to the use of such an extract as well as to a process for obtaining it and to the compositions containing same.

The present disclosure relates generally to compositions that include at least two or at least three gelling agents, at least one emollient, and at least 15% water by mass relative to the total mass.
