The present specification relates to a composition for external application to skin with improved solubility and feeling during use, comprising a benzoic acid amide compound, an isomer thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a hydrate thereof or a solute that is a solvate thereof, and a first cyclodextrin solubilizing agent.

Provided are tissue products comprising a single ply tissue web that has been prepared by a creping process and more preferably by a print creping process adapted to dispose a non-crosslinked latex polymer on at least one of the outer surfaces of the tissue web. The creped single ply tissue products generally have a low degree of stiffness, such as a Stiffness Index less than about 8.00, and are highly durable, such as a Durability Index greater than about 12.0. In other instances, the tissue products may have very low levels of lint or dust, such as a Slough less than about 4.00 mg, even at basis weights from about 45 to about 55 grams per square meter (gsm) and tensile strengths from 600 to 1,200 g/3″.

Disclosed herein are cosmetic compositions that provide for an improved appearance of the dermis and for improved dermal and epidermal health in view of conventional formulations.

The present invention relates to a composition, especially a cosmetic composition, in particular for making up and/or caring for keratin materials, comprising at least retinol, an ethylenediaminedisuccinic acid salt, at least one compound chosen from ascorbic acid or an analog thereof, and tocopherol or a derivative thereof.

Disclosed in the present invention is a formulation of lip gloss, comprising at least main ingredients, stabilizers, preservatives, flavours and some additives. The ingredients comprise Centella asiatica extract, dimethicone, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, Polysorbate 60, Polyisobutene, Squalane, Arginine, Tocopherol. Stabilizers comprise Sorbitan Isostearate, 1, 2-Hexanediol, Hydroxyacetophenone, water, Acrylates Copolymer, Polyacrylate-13 and Polysorbate 20 or water and Acrylates Copolymer by weight. Preservatives comprise Hydroxyacetophenone and 1,2-Hexanediol. Additionally, the said invention may comprise at least CI 15850, CI 19140, CI 17200, CI 15985, CI 42090, CI 15510 and CI 16035 as additives in designated amount by weight. The said invention comes with a shiny finish, long lasting or transfer proof.

Methods and industrial scale set-ups for manufacturing spray-dried powders are provided. During the process, a solvent is used. The process is done batchwise such that the emulsification mass ratio is low when removal of the solvent is started. Preferred solvents are isopropyl acetate and ethyl acetate.

The present invention provides a composition comprising lycopene, one or both of phytoene and phytofluene, and phytosterols, wherein the concentration of lycopene is in the range of 0.3%-2% (w/w) and wherein the weight ratio of said lycopene to one or both of phytoene and phytofluene is in the range of 1:1 to 1:2.5. The invention also encompasses a method for preparing said composition.

A skin care composition for improving the appearance of the skin. The skin care composition comprises petroleum jelly, a vegetable oil blend and an antioxidant. The concentration of the vegetable oil blend in the composition is at least 50% (v/v). In some embodiments, the vegetable oil blend comprises apricot oil, coconut oil, jojoba oil and argan oil. In some embodiments, the vegetable oil blend further comprises castor oil and vegetable glycerin oil.
