Emulsion comprising an anionic acrylic copolymer and a lipophilic polymer A subject of the present invention is a composition in the form of an emulsion, preferably in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, comprising at least one hydrophilic gelling polymer chosen from anionic acrylic copolymers and at least one lipophilic polymer comprising at least hydroxyethyl acrylate units and acrylate units bearing a lipophilic group, wherein the weight ratio of the sum of all the hydroxyethyl acrylate units to the sum of all the acrylate units bearing a lipophilic group ranges from 1:30 to 1:1 and wherein the lipophilic polymer has a number-average molecular weight Mn ranging from 2000 to 9000 g/mol. The composition in accordance with the invention makes it possible to obtain emulsions which are homogeneous (the emulsion is macroscopically smooth and has no grains, after storage in a pot for 24 hours at ambient temperature (25° C.)), which have a variable viscosity (very fluid to very thick), which are stable over time, and which have good sensory properties, in particular which are non-tacky, non-shiny and non-greasy on the skin.

An apparatus for preparing a cosmetic composition containing an emulsion substance formed by instant emulsification through a microfluidic channel is provided. The apparatus includes a housing defining the appearance of the apparatus and installed with a pump on one side, the pump being operated by a user; an external-phase chamber provided in the housing, and storing an external-phase fluid forming the external phase of the emulsion substance; a dispersed-phase chamber provided in the housing, and storing a dispersed-phase fluid forming the dispersed phase of the emulsion substance. The apparatus further includes a microfluidic channel providing a path for the external-phase fluid and the dispersed-phase fluid to flow for forming the emulsion substance by combining the external-phase fluid with the dispersed-phase fluid; and a tube for discharging the emulsion substance from the microfluidic channel.

A polyurethane elastomeric rubber composition containing a bio-based polyol cross-linked with a bio-based isocyanate using a urethanation catalyst such as a bismuth catalyst in the presence of a cosmetic emollient is disclosed. The cross-linked polyurethane elastomer rubber is in further aspect of the invention included in a gel after being milled in the presence of a bio-based emollient or mixture of bio-based emollients. The polyurethane elastomeric gel has good compatibility with cosmetic and natural oils and can be used as a gelling agent for these oils among other desirable cosmetic formulary roles.

A cosmetic composition for improved penetration of skin active agents including about 0.1 to about 10 wt. % of C-glycoside; about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate; about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of sodium polyacrylate; and water, wherein the cosmetic composition is an oil-in-water emulsion, and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition. Methods for treating damaged skin with cosmetic compositions are also disclosed.

Provided is a multi-component system, and a method for preparing a hypochlorite composition with increased viscosity with a composition pH in the range of 7 to 12. For example, and preferably, the system and method may be used to provide a (hydro)gelled hypochlorite composition. The system or method makes use of a first quantity of a first component including hypochlorite or a source of hypochlorite at a pH in the range of 10 to 13.5 preferably 11 to 13.5 and a separate component including a pH induced thickening agent in “dry” form or in dissolved and/or dispersed form at a pH less than 7. The pH induced thickener is capable of increasing the viscosity of a composition upon subjecting it to an increasing pH such as in particular the composition pH in the range of 7 to 12. The pH induced thickener is thus for causing an increase of viscosity in the hypochlorite composition caused by the alkaline composition pH experienced by the pH induced thickener. A pH adjusting (acidic or basic) agent may be present to adjust the composition pH to the desired range. The hypochlorite composition is obtainable by combining amounts of the components in the system.

A two-part oxidative dyeing composition is described. The two-part composition has an alkaline first part comprising oxidative dye couplers and/or oxidative dye precursors, and a second part comprising hydrogen peroxide, xanthine and/or its derivatives, and a lipophilic compound. The second part is formulated as water-in-oil emulsion and it was unexpectedly found that xanthines stabilize the viscosity of the second part composition allowing for improved dyeing performance.
