A topical sanitizing composition for reducing the concentration of non-enveloped viruses on the skin is provided. The topical sanitizing composition includes one or more pH adjusters, at least one carbomer, and at least about 50 wt. % of one or more C.sub.1-8 alcohols. The sanitizing composition with pH adjuster and carbomer is able to achieve at least a 3.0 log reduction in the concentration of the non-enveloped virus and in some cases passes the EN 14476 standard.

A depilatory wax additive and process. The depilatory wax additive may modify a depilatory hard wax composition to include visual, olfactory, or skin treatment components. A depilatory wax additive may include molded hard wax component and glitter, a color modifier, a scent modifier, or a skin treatment. A preexisting hard wax composition of solid particles may be heated to a liquid. The depilatory wax additive may be added to the liquefied preexisting hard wax composition, mixed, and heated to disperse the glitter, a color modifier, a scent modifier, or a skin treatment in the wax mixture.

Active agent-containing articles, for example fibrous structures, that exhibit consumer acceptable article in-use properties, such as article peel strength, flexibility, and/or dissolvability, and methods for making same are provided.

Active agent-containing articles, for example fibrous structures, that exhibit consumer acceptable article in-use properties, such as flexibility, article dimensions, and/or dissolvability, and product-shipping assemblies for containing the same are provided.

Provided is a cosmetic having a unique soft and springy feeling in use, capable of stably formulating therein a UV protector, and providing a light feeling in use such that the cosmetic is separated into pieces when applied to the skin. The present invention relates to a cosmetic characterized by comprising (A) a (meth)acrylic acid/an alkyl (meth)acrylate/a (meth)acrylic acid-POE monoalkyl ether ester copolymer, (B) a UV protector, (C) a nonionic surfactant, and (D) a higher alcohol.

The oil-in-water type emulsified cosmetic includes: (A) a powder, (B) a water-soluble thickener, and (C) a surfactant, wherein the content of the component (A) is 1% to 30% by mass based on the total amount of the cosmetic, the component (A) contains (A1) an N-acyl acidic amino acid-treated powder, the component (C) contains (C1) a solid nonionic surfactant having a hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) value of less than 7 and (C2) a surfactant having an HLB value of 7 or greater, and the mass ratio [(C1):(C2)] between the component (C1) and the component (C2) is 1.5:1 to 30:1.

The present application relates to a composition for topical application comprising baicalin and/or at least one derivative thereof or an extract containing same, and at least one acrylic polymer, and to the use of said composition in the cosmetics and dermatology fields and in particular for caring for, for the hygiene of, for protecting and/or for making up bodily or facial skin, or for hair care, preferably for caring for bodily or facial skin. A subject of the invention is also a process for the cosmetic treatment of keratin materials, which consists in applying to the keratin materials a composition as defined above, and also the use of said composition in the cosmetics or dermatology field, and in particular for caring for, protecting and/or making up bodily or facial skin, or for hair care, preferably for caring for bodily or facial skin.

A cosmetic composition including a solvent A, a solvent B, a polymer C and a colorant. The solvent A is at least one selected from the group consisting of ethanol, n-propanol and isopropanol. A boiling point of the solvent B is 150° C. or higher. The solvent B is compatible with the solvent A, and the polymer C is soluble in the solvent A and insoluble in the solvent B. A content of the solvent B is 5% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less, and a ratio by mass of a content of the solvent A to a content of the solvent B [solvent A/solvent B] in the cosmetic composition is 1 or more and 15 or less.

The present invention concerns a cosmetic method for dyeing or making up keratin fibres, in particular eyelashes and/or eyebrows and preferably eyebrows, comprising the application, to the keratin fibres, of at least: a) A dyeing cosmetic composition A comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, one or more natural dye(s) chosen from the group consisting of neoflavonoids, gallic tannins and catechic tannins, and/or proanthocyanidins and the derivatives of same and the mixtures thereof, or preferably one or more plant extracts containing same, and advantageously an antioxidant, b) A revealing cosmetic composition B comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one iron salt and/or one aluminium salt, in particular an iron gluconate or an iron sulphate, composition A being applied before or after composition B, and preferably before composition B.

Described herein is an oral care implement comprising: a handle; and a head coupled to the handle, the head comprising a main body and a release component coupled to the main body, the release component comprising: a water-dissolvable matrix comprising a first polymer having a processing temperature greater than or equal to 130° C.; and a release agent comprising at least one of zinc oxide, potassium nitrate, and tetrapotassium pyrophosphate; wherein the release agent is dispersed throughout the water-dissolvable matrix.
