The present invention relates to anhydrous compositions including at least one silicone film former; from about 10% by weight to about 20% by weight of expanded perlite having an average particle size of less than about 50 microns; at least one silicone elastomer; and at least one volatile solvent.

The disclosure relates to novel compositions comprising 1) conditioned media, 2) combinations of secreted biomolecules/organic molecules, and/or 3) secreted extracellular vesicles/exosomes collected from differentiated epithelial cell culture, as well as methods of making and using such compositions.

Disclosed herein are oral care compositions comprising hydroxyapatite and a silica abrasive as well as methods of reducing or inhibiting enamel erosion, repairing enamel erosion damage, increasing enamel microcrack resistance and/or increasing enamel microscratch resistance using these compositions.

A manufacturing method for porous resin microparticles comprising steps of: heating a polyester thermoplastic resin having biodegradability to a temperature of 80° C. or higher and 200° C. or lower in a glycol ether solvent to obtain a solution, and cooling the solution to precipitate the polyester thermoplastic resin as porous resin microparticles.

The invention relates to poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) microgels, to the process for preparing same and the uses thereof in various fields of application such as optics, electronics, pharmacy and cosmetics.

These microgels have the advantage of being monodisperse, pH-responsive and temperature-responsive. They can carry magnetic nanoparticles or biologically active molecules. These microgels may also form transparent films, which have novel optical and electromechanical properties.

Hair spray compositions comprising a liquid carrier, hollow, fluid-filled micropspheres, a polymer fixative, and propellant are provided.

A cosmetic having excellent properties in transparency, spreadability, smoothness, skin compatibility and safety is prepared using a synthetic talc that is flake-like particles containing 2:1-type laminar crystals of silicate which have a basic structure of an octahedron sheet sandwiched between two tetrahedron sheets. The flake-like particle has a mean volume particle diameter of 0.5 to 100 μm, and 0.3° or less of half width at half maximum of peak present at 2θ equal to 9.4°±1° when measured by unoriented powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD) using CuKα rays, and the cosmetic is substantially free of Mg.sub.3Si.sub.2O.sub.5(OH).sub.4.

A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments having nano-sized diameters and exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics, wherein said nano-filament has a core and a sheath.

A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments having nano-sized diameters and exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics.

The invention relates to methods and compositions for improving wound healing and in particular for preventing scar formation and thus loss of function that can occur in injured tissues during the natural wound healing process. Particularly, although by no means exclusively, the invention relates to the healing of chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers.
