Antimicrobial polymer coating formulations are prepared that protect biological surfaces by treating, reducing, ameliorating, preventing or inhibiting pathogenic microorganism ingress to a human or animal host, reducing the potential for infection, particularly by necrotizing fasciitis originating microorganisms, through use of a polymer coating barrier containing antimicrobial agents that facilitates sustained release of biocidal agents active against such opportunistic microorganisms. Such formulations are effective for inhibiting microbial ingress pertaining to soft tissue and skin tears, abrasions, punctures and surgical wounds, and can be used as in water environments and as a skin protectant sunscreen and insect repellent.

Multi-functional base emulsions that can be used to form a variety of cosmetic compositions are disclosed. In one aspect, a cosmetic emulsion can include a water phase including about 10% to about 67.5% water by total weight of the cosmetic emulsion. The cosmetic emulsion can also include an oil phase that includes (a) stearalkonium hectorite, and (b) a silicone alkyl polyether selected from the group consisting of: PEG/PPG-18/18 dimethicone, PEG/PPG-20/15 dimethicone, and Lauryl PEG/PPG-18/18 dimethicone.

The present invention relates to a foam made of a specific material having superior properties and to cosmetics comprising said foam.

An aerosol composition including an aerosol stock solution containing a cationic surfactant (A) and a linear saturated higher alcohol (B), and a propellant (C) containing carbon dioxide. The component (A) containing a mono-long-chain-alkyl cationic surfactant (A1). A content of the component (A) being 0.9% by mass or more and less than 6.0% by mass in the aerosol stock solution. A molar ratio [(B)/(A1)] of the component (B) with respect to the component (A1) being 3.0 or more and 7.0 or less in the aerosol stock solution. A content of the component (A1) in the component (A) being 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and a difference between a number of carbon atoms of the long-chain alkyl in the component (A1) and the number of carbon atoms of the component (B) being 0.

A cosmetic composition for dyeing keratinous fibers is provided herein. The cosmetic composition includes water and from about 6 to about 12 wt % organic solvent relative to the weight of the composition. The organic solvent includes from about 80 to about 100 wt % propylene carbonate and from about 0 to about 20 wt % benzyl alcohol. The cosmetic composition has a pH value in the range from about 1.0 to about 5.5 and at least one acid directly absorbed dye.

The present invention addresses the issue of providing an external composition for screen foamers such as pump foamers, that can be safely used even when not removed after application. Provided is an external composition for screen foamers, including a non-ionic surfactant as a foaming component and, ideally, being in a soluble state.

The present disclosure provides a formulation comprising a fluoroolefin, an amine neutralizer, a fixative polymer, and a solvent. The formulation may be trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze(E)), and the amine neutralizer may be triethanolamine (TEA), triisopropanolamine (TIPA), or a mixture thereof. The formulation may be suitable for use as a personal care product, such as a hair spray.

A light-therapeutic composition is disclosed, which can modify the optical characteristics of the skin, thereby increase the effectiveness of the UV-B therapy. The composition according to the invention includes one or more material, which sets the minimum value of wavelength of the light transmitted, one or more material, which is suitable to modify the above-mentioned wavelength value, and increase the transmittance of the skin in a certain wavelength-range, furthermore, optionally an excipient. The composition according to the invention blocks the UV radiation in the wavelength ranging from 280 to 300 nm, and helps the incorporation of the UV radiation by the skin in the wavelength ranging from 310 to 320 nm.

A hair care composition providing improved in-use wet feel. The composition can contain from about 20% to about 45%, by weight, of a detersive surfactant, from about 0.01% to about 2.5%, by weight, of a cationic synthetic polymer, and from about 0.01% to about 2.5%, by weight, of a cationic guar polymer. The hair care composition can produce a final rinse friction of from about 600 gf to about 2000 gf and a delta final to initial from about 100 gf to about 600 gf. The hair care composition can be applied to the hair when it is dispensed from an aerosol foam dispenser as a foam.
