The present invention relates to personal care compositions comprising malodor reduction compositions and methods of making and using such personal care compositions. Such personal care compositions comprising the malodor control technologies disclosed herein provide malodor control without leaving an undesireable scent and when perfume is used to scent such compositions, such scent is not unduely altered by the malodor control technology.

A cosmetic composition for improved dyeing of keratin fibers is described. The composition comprises alkoxylated organopolysiloxanes and alkoxylated glyceryl esters and/or optionally alkoxylated alkyl glyceryl ethers. The composition may comprise less than 40 wt % water, or may be anhydrous. The composition may further comprise a direct dye, and may be used for bleaching, lightening, or dyeing of keratin fibers.

The subject of the present disclosure is a process for dyeing keratinous material, in particular human hair. In one example, the process includes applying an agent (a) to the keratinous material. The agent (a) contains at least one organic silicon compound from the group of silanes with one, two or three silicon atoms. The agent (a) further contains at least one silicone polymer. An agent (b) is applied to the keratinous material. The agent (b) contains at least one pigment.

A three-part method of cleaning a user's teeth and/or gums is disclosed. First, a user applies a tonic of essential oils to the user's teeth and/or gums by either brushing, rubbing, rinsing and/or flossing with the tonic thereby destroying harmful bacteria. Second, the user brushes with a toothpaste having nano-hydroxyapatite being particles of 50 nanometers or smaller. The nano-hydroxyapatite is absorbed into the surface opening inside dentinal tubules of the teeth. Third, the user seeds their mouth with an oral probiotic having beneficial bacteria. The third step must come after both the first and second steps.

Inorganic sunscreen active agents in cosmetic compositions and methods are provided and feature micronized metal oxide inorganic particles selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, titanium oxide, cerium oxide and mixtures thereof, the inorganic particles being coated with: (i) a poly[C8-C20 hydroxycarboxylic acid], the coated particles measured at a 10% loading in dodecane and at 1 minute elapsed time having a Zeta Potential ranging from 2 to 10 mv, particularly from 2 to 5 mv, amounts of the poly[C8-C20 hydroxycarboxylic acid] to the inorganic particles being in a relative weight ratio of 1:100 to 1:10; or alternatively (ii) an adduct of a hydroxy cinnamate and a silanol, amounts of the adduct to the inorganic particles being in a relative weight ratio of 1:200 to 1:4; or alternatively (iii) mixtures of (i) and (ii).

A cosmetic composition including: (A) a silicone film-forming agent, (B) a high-molecular-weight organopolysiloxane having a degree of polymerization of 2,350 or more and 20,000 or less, and (C) an organopolysiloxane having a cationic group other than the component (A) and the component (B). A total content of the components (A) to (C) in the cosmetic composition is 2% by mass or more and 50% by mass or less, and a content of water is 10% by mass or less.

A method for strengthening and repairing keratin fibres including providing a first—and a second crosslinking composition, wherein the first—crosslinking composition comprises an at least bi-functional Brønsted-base and the second—crosslinking composition comprises—an at least bi-functional organic acid, and a cosmetically acceptable carrier; applying the first—as well as the second—crosslinking composition to keratin fibres; and optionally mixing the first—crosslinking composition into a commercially available hair coloring or hair bleaching composition.

A combination of N-acetyl-L-cysteine, selenium in the form of selenomethionine and melatonin, and a medical product or pharmaceutical composition comprising such combination, useful for the treatment of a variety of diseases and conditions is described. The combination of N-acetyl-L-cysteine, selenium in the form of selenomethionine and melatonin is also useful for cosmetic treatment of skin and as an antibacterial agent.
