The present disclosure provides an oily moisturizer composed of an esterified product of a component A and a component B, or an esterified product of the component A, the component B and a component C, wherein Component A comprises a polyhydric alcohol that is dipentaerythritol, erythritol or sorbitan, Component B comprises one fatty acid, or two or more fatty acids, selected from among linear saturated fatty acids of 6 to 10 carbon atoms, and Component C comprises one fatty acid, or two or more fatty acids, selected from among fatty acids of 6 to 28 carbon atoms (but excluding fatty acids of the component B).

The present invention relates to sulfate-free cleansing compositions comprising at least one zwitterionic surfactant and at least one human milk oligosaccharide as well as to a method of increasing the foaming properties of cleansing compositions comprising at least one surfactant by incorporation of one or more human milk oligosaccharides into said cleansing composition.

Compositions, and methods and uses thereof are provided, wherein the compositions comprise a biologically active agent and one or more solvents that dissolve the biologically active agent.

The present invention relates to a composition in the form of an O/W emulsion, comprising: (a) at least one hydrocarbon-based block copolymer comprising at least one styrene block and at least one block comprising units chosen from butadiene, ethylene, propylene, butylene and isoprene or a mixture thereof, which are optionally hydrogenated; (b) at least one film-forming linear ethylenic polymer devoid of styrene; (c) at least one oil; and (d) water. The composition according to the present invention can maintain the form of an O/W emulsion for a long period of time, and can exhibit good cosmetic properties such as soft feeling to the touch, uniform adhesion to the skin and long lasting cosmetic effects.

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition, in which a high-content of oil-soluble components is stabilized using a natural surfactant, and more specifically to a cosmetic composition, in which by using a plant-derived natural surfactant and a high-pressure emulsification method without using PEG-based or ionic surfactants that may cause skin irritation, a transparent gel formulation containing a high-content of oil-soluble components can be realized, thereby effectively combining the advantage of an oil formulation excellent in moisturizing power, and the advantages of a moisture gel formulation, which is easy to use without flowing down, and has a fresh feeling of use.

A transdermally absorbable base material including: a lipid peptide compound including at least one of compound of Formula (1) below and the similar compounds or pharmaceutically usable salts thereof; a surfactant; a specific polyhydric alcohol; a fatty acid; and water,

wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.9-23 aliphatic group; R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group that optionally has a branched chain having a carbon atom number of 1 or 2; R.sup.3 is a (CH.sub.2).sub.nX group; n is a number of 1 to 4; and X is amino group, guanidino group, CONH.sub.2 group, or a 5-membered cyclic group optionally having 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms, a 6-membered cyclic group optionally having 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms, or a condensed heterocyclic group constituted by a 5-membered cyclic group and a 6-membered cyclic group which optionally have 1 to 3 nitrogen atoms.

An aqueous cleansing composition comprising a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, and a thickener comprising an alkoxylated methyl glucose ether, wherein a weight ratio of cationic surfactant to nonionic surfactant is greater than 0.9:1. The combination of the cationionic:nonionic surfactant ratio with the alkoxylated methyl glucose ether thickener provides the composition with cold weather stability. Cold weather stability is observed when the composition remains transparent after cold storage.

An anti-bacterial mouthwash includes aqueous extracts of Salvia libanotica and Malva sylvestris plants, at least one essential oil, and an emulsifier. The essential oil can include at least one of eucalyptus oil and peppermint oil. The emulsifier can include polyoxyethylene sorbitan. The anti-bacterial mouthwash can be free from alcohol.

The subject-matter of the present invention is an anhydrous cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium: at least one nonionic surfactant, at least one anionic surfactant, at least 25% of at least one filler.

The article is partially or completely soluble in water and it constitutes a foaming product used for cleansing the skin and hair and/or removing makeup from the skin and/or as scrubbing product.

The present invention relates to esterified glycerylated alkyl glycoside and to a process for making same. The esterified glycerylated alkyl glycoside have one or more polyglyceryl moieties and one or more acyl moieties, wherein all of the one or more acyl moieties are situated on the one or more polyglyceryl moieties via an ester linkage. These compounds have been found to be useful as emulsifiers and coemulsifiers in the formulation of a phase stable emulsions suitable for use in personal care, home care, industrial and institutional, and health care applications.
