The present invention teaches a foamable pharmaceutical carrier comprising a benefit agent, selected from the group consisting of a dicarboxylic acid and a dicarboxylic acid ester; a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of at least one surface-active agent; at least one polymeric agent and mixtures thereof; a solvent selected from the group consisting of water, a hydrophilic solvent, a hydrophobic solvent, a potent solvent, a polar solvent, a silicone, an emollient, and mixtures thereof, wherein the benefit agent, stabilizer and solvent are selected to provide a composition that is substantially resistant to aging and to phase separation and or can substantially stabilize other active ingredients. The invention further relates to a foamable composition further containing a liquefied hydrocarbon gas propellant.

A permeable layer associated relative to a phase change material associated relative to a securing fabric layer. The permeable layer retains a therapeutic or cosmetic agent to be transferred, in whole or in part, to the user's skin. The phase change material may be dissolved within a thermoplastic matrix or situated within a suitable container. This invention provides the novelty of a phase change material, coupled with a permeable layer and a fabric layer, which work in conjunction with a therapeutic or cosmetic agent.

Suggested is a cosmetic blend, comprising or consisting of (a) at least one TRPV1 and/or TRPV3 modulator and (b1) at least one 1,2-alkandiol having 5 to 12 carbon atoms and/or (b2) at least one polyol having 3 to 12 carbon atoms and 3 to 6 hydroxyl groups.

The invention relates to an alcohol-free cosmetic or pharmaceutical foam carrier comprising water, a hydrophobic solvent, a foam adjuvant agent, a surface-active agent and a water gelling agent. The cosmetic or pharmaceutical foam carrier does not contain aliphatic alcohols, making it non-irritating and non-drying. The alcohol-free foam carrier is suitable for inclusion of both water-soluble and oil soluble pharmaceutical and cosmetic agents.

The present invention aims to provide a warming composition showing a favorable dispersion stability after long-term storage, a high warming impact, and improvement of zeolite-specific deterioration of feeling of use, and to provide an aerosol formulation containing the warming composition. This object is achieved with a warming composition containing zeolite nanoparticles having an average particle size of not more than 500 nm, wherein the temperature of the composition is rapidly increased by heat generated by hydration reaction between the zeolite and water.

The disclosed aspects and embodiments provide compositions, systems, and methods for applying a warming cosmetic composition in a manner that provides unexpected levels of temperature increase (on a per mass basis) and prevents aggregation of inorganic components of the composition. In one aspect, a composition is provided that includes an anhydrous medium and at least one exothermic heating agent, wherein the composition is configured to provide increased temperature when exposed to water sufficient to initiate an exothermic reaction and mixing energy, as compared to the composition when exposed to water in the absence of mixing energy.

A dentifrice composition with an optimized weight ratio between a TRPV1 agonist and that of menthol or a menthol derivative provides a desirable user experience of a dominant warming sensation during brushing a and a dominant cooling sensation after brushing. The warming sensation signals to the user active or benefit delivery, while the cooling sensations provides the freshness that many users expect from dentifrice.

A self-warming hygienic tissue system may be provided utilizing a hygienic tissue having a first and second surface. The first surface may have a first plurality of ridges and a first plurality of troughs such that each of the first plurality of ridges may be disposed between a pair of troughs of the first plurality of troughs and each of the first plurality of troughs may be disposed between a pair of ridges of the first plurality of ridges. Further, the second surface may have a second plurality of ridges and a second plurality of troughs such that each of the second plurality of ridges are disposed between a pair of troughs of the second plurality of troughs and each of the second plurality of troughs are disposed between a pair of ridges of the second plurality of ridges.

A permeable layer associated relative to a phase change material associated relative to a securing fabric layer. The permeable layer retains a therapeutic or cosmetic agent to be transferred, in whole or in part, to the user's skin. The phase change material may be dissolved within a thermoplastic matrix or situated within a suitable container. This invention provides the novelty of a phase change material, coupled with a permeable layer and a fabric layer, which work in conjunction with a therapeutic or cosmetic agent.

The invention relates to an alcohol-free cosmetic or therapeutic foam carrier comprising water, a hydrophobic organic carrier, a foam adjuvant agent, a surface-active agent and a gelling agent. The cosmetic or therapeutic foam carrier does not contain aliphatic alcohols, making it non-irritating and non-drying. The alcohol-free foam carrier is suitable for inclusion of both water-soluble and oil soluble therapeutic and cosmetic agents.
