Described herein is a nanofibre matrix comprising 100% natural biopolymers selected from polysaccharides and/or proteins with optional functional ingredients for use as cosmetic products. More specifically, nanofibre matrix manufactured by electrospinning methods comprising a dry sheet without containing any preservatives, surfactants, solvents and crosslinkers. To use nanofibre cosmetic products, simply wet skin and then apply the nanofibre to skin. Functional ingredients may be optionally incorporated within the nanofibre matrix during electrospinning to provide different cosmetic effects. Functional ingredients offer skin benefits such as moisturizing, anti-ageing, wrinkle reduction, brightening, antioxidant and acne treatment. Functional ingredients can be essential oil where it is incorporated into nanofibre matrix to provide scent effect to cosmetic products. Functional ingredients can also be natural dye where it is incorporated in nanofibre matrix to make coloured nanofibres. Coloured nanofibres can be used for makeup products such as blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, nail polish, lipstick, contouring and hair dye product. The nanofibre matrix comprising 100% natural biopolymers with or without functional ingredients can be processed to assorted shapes or easily cut by consumers for using on different areas of skin for different purposes.

An aqueous formulation for topical application to the skin comprising water, a water-miscible organic solvent, and benzoyl peroxide, wherein the concentration of the organic solvent is sufficient to provide a stable suspension of benzoyl peroxide in the aqueous formulation without the inclusion of a surfactant in the formulation, wherein the ratio of concentrations of water and organic solvent in the formulation is sufficient to maintain the benzoyl peroxide in saturated solubility in the formulation following application to the skin, and wherein the concentration of benzoyl peroxide in the formulation is less than 5.0% and at least 1.0% w/w. The formulation may further contain a chemical compound in addition to benzoyl peroxide that is effective in the treatment of acne. The aqueous formulations of the invention are useful in the treatment of acne and acne rosacea.

This disclosure relates to a cosmetic composition capable of preventing enzyme damage, and a cosmetic container for storing the same. One aspect of this disclosure provides a cosmetic composition capable of preventing enzyme damage, the composition including a first content disposed in a first space; a second content which is disposed in a second space separated from the first space, and which includes an enzyme and a polyol, wherein a cosmetic material is produced by mixing the first content and the second content.

The present disclosure relates to fragrance materials encapsulated within polymeric materials in the form of microcapsules of polymer encapsulated fragrance. The microcapsules are mixed with a water-based binding agent so that a coating forms on the microcapsule in situ, after which the coated microcapsules may be applied to hard surfaces of a product, from which controlled release of the fragrance is provided over time as the product is subjected to normal handling by a user.

The present invention relates to an emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant, in particular to an oil-in-water emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant, characterized in that it comprises, especially in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least composite particles comprising a core comprising at least organic or inorganic particles A; said core being covered at the surface, continuously or discontinuously, with an envelope comprising at least organic or inorganic particles B; said particles A and B having different polarities.

The present invention relates to an oil-in-water type cosmetic composition which includes an oil phase containing at least one selected from the group consisting of general oil, silicon oil and a gelling agent; and a water phase containing carbomer, PVA and purified water. An oil-in-water type cosmetic composition provided in the present invention contains oil particles including oil and water components, thereby improving visual aesthetic sense and maintaining the stability of emulsified particles even without any surfactant and emulsifier, so as to prevent a coalesce with other oils and also maximize an overall feeling of use, including spreadability and absorbency when applied to the skin due to low hardness. In addition, the composition does not contain any surfactant and emulsifier and thus minimize an irritation to the skin.

Provided is a liquid skin external composition which allows a poorly water-soluble component to be applied to a skin in a liquid state. An assembly of fiber for use in production of a liquid skin external composition, the assembly of fiber comprising (a) a polymer soluble in water and an alcohol or a ketone in a content of 50 mass % or more and 98 mass % or less with respect to the whole assembly of fiber and (b) a poorly water-soluble component in a content of 2 mass % or more and 40 mass % or less with respect to the whole assembly of fiber.

Described is a urogenital cleansing composition that includes a non-ionic cellulose ether, an aqueous solvent, a triglyceride oil and a pH-regulating agent, wherein the urogenital cleansing composition does not contain any additional emulsifier and have a pH within the range of from 3 to 4 and wherein the pH-regulating agent is a lactate buffer.

Methods of treatment and dosage regimes using hydrophobic gel or foam compositions comprising a tetracycline antibiotic for accelerating the return of skin integrity and or in treating or alleviating a disorder including impetigo, acne, rosacea, a skin disease caused by a bacteria or a tetracycline antibiotic responsive disease, wherein the foam composition or gel is administered topically to a target area on a subject having the disorder and wherein the target area comprises an area of skin, or mucosa or an eye.

The present invention relates to an emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant, in particular to an oil-in-water emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant, characterized in that it comprises, especially in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least composite particles comprising a core comprising at least organic or inorganic particles A; said core being covered at the surface, continuously or discontinuously, with an envelope comprising at least organic or inorganic particles B; said particles A and B having different polarities.

The present invention also relates to the use of the composite particles as defined previously as emulsion stabilizer, in particular as stabilizer for an emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant, and more particularly as stabilizer for an oil-in-water emulsion not containing any emulsifying surfactant.

The present invention also relates to a cosmetic process for treating a keratin material, which consists in applying to the keratin material an emulsion as defined previously.
