The invention relates to an anhydrous liquid composition, in particular for caring for and/or making up keratinous substances, in particular the skin, comprising, preferably in a physiologically acceptable medium: a) an oily phase comprising: i) at least one non-volatile oil and ii) at least one volatile hydrocarbon oil and b) at least one monoalcohol comprising from 2 to 8 carbon atoms and c) at least one lipophilic film-forming polymer chosen from: (i) silicone resins of MQ type, (ii) silsesquioxane resins, (iii) vinyl polymers grafted with a carbosiloxane dendrimer, (iv) their mixtures, and d) at least one particulate material, the said composition comprising at least 15% by weight of non-volatile oil(s) with respect to the total weight of the composition. The invention also relates to a method for coating keratinous substances, more particularly for making up and/or caring for keratinous substances, such as the skin, characterized in that it comprises the application to the keratinous substances of a composition as defined above.

An anhydrous stick composition, including deodorant active, an antiperspirant active, or a combination thereof; a carrier; a structurant; and a cyclodextrin perfume complex, comprising cyclodextrin and a perfume, wherein the perfume comprises perfume raw materials and 10% or more, by weight of the perfume, of the perfume raw materials have: a cyclodextrin complex stability constant of about 3.0 or less, a C log P of about 2.5 or less; and a weight average molecular weight of about 200 Daltons or less.

The present invention relates to methods of increasing one or more of collagen, elastin, fibronectin, and hyaluronic acid gene expression in the skin of a subject comprising topically administering to the subject a hyaluronic acid compound and a retinoid in one or more compositions. The methods improve the look, feel and/or appearance of the skin, hydrate the skin, plump the skin, improve skin elasticity, improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce the depth, length, or width of fine lines and wrinkles, and smooth the skin. The present invention also relates to cosmetic compositions comprising a hyaluronic acid compound wherein the composition is anhydrous.

The invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, an oily phase and at least a) a phenyl silicone oil of formula (I) [Chem 1] (I) wherein —Me is methyl and Ph is phenyl, OR′ represents an —OSiMe3 group, —y ranges from 1 to 1000, and —z ranges from 1 to 1000, b) a C8-C30 fatty alcohol, c) a branched dextrin ester, and d) advantageously a liposoluble polymer selected from among the group consisting of: (i) acrylate polymers selected from among the group consisting of silicone acrylate polymers, acrylate polymers comprising an alkyl chain of at least 10 carbon atoms, and copolymers of acrylates and acrylamide, (ii) copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone (VP) and alkene comprising at least 18 carbon atoms, and (iii) mixtures thereof, and its use in particular on the lips for a make-up result with improved gloss and longer-lasting gloss and color. Preferably, the composition is in a semi-solid or solid form.

The instant disclosure relates to cosmetic compositions that when applied to skin instantaneously and dramatically improve the appearance of the skin. The compositions include volatile hydrocarbon oil; mineral thickening agents; silicone elastomers; and hydrophobic film forming polymers; wherein the weight ratio of the total amount of hydrophobic film forming polymers to the total amount of mineral thickeners (film forming polymers: mineral thickening agent) is 1:1 to 8:1, and the weight ratio of the total amount of silicone elastomer to the total amount of mineral thickener (silicone elastomer: mineral thickening agent) is 1:1 to 5:1. Methods for improving the appearance of skin comprising application of the cosmetic compositions to the skin are also disclosed.

Cosmetic compositions capable of forming a multilayer structure after application to a keratinous material are provided, as well as methods of applying such compositions to a keratinous material.

A non-Newtonian, lyophilic colloid comprised of (i) at least one anionic, non-sulfated glycosaminoglycan (ANSG) having a molecular weight greater than about 500 kDa and (ii) glycerin.

A method for treating skin of a person is disclosed. The method can include topically applying to the skin of the person a composition comprising an effective amount of an aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic extract from Vinca major, wherein the composition reduces melanin production in the skin, increases antioxidant activity in the skin, and/or increases skin moisture content.

Multi-phase oral care compositions for whitening teeth including hydrophilic bleaching agent particles in a hydrophobic phase with a cone penetration consistency value of from about 25 to about 300. The hydrophilic bleaching agent particles can include peroxide compounds and/or hydrogen peroxide adducts. The hydrophilic bleaching agent particle can have a solubility in water of at least about 20 parts, by weight of the particles, in about 100 parts, by weight, of water.

An anhydrous and alcohol-free slow fragrance diffusive composition (lotion, gel or cream) with longer lasting properties than hydroalcoholic formula fragrance product that contains 50 to 75 percent by weight dimethicone crosspolymer gel, 0.01 to 30 percent by weight fragrance oil and 5 to 40 percent by weight volatile linear silicone fluid. Emollients may be added to moisturize the skin, improve the fragrance rendition and/or increase the miscibility of the fragrance oil in the composition when a high level of dimethicone is used (in case of a lotion for example). Moreover, a preservative and some pigments can be added to the formula to preserve the fragrant product from bacteria contamination and to improve the aesthetics respectively.
