The present invention relates to compositions comprising molecular iodine and a vehicle comprising a semifluorinated alkane. The compositions of the invention may be used to treat or prevent diseases or conditions caused by, or associated with microorganisms.

A skin defense system and a skin rejuvenation and defense system. The skin rejuvenation and defense system includes a skin rejuvenation application and a skin defense application that work together synergistically to rejuvenate and defend the skin from environmental insults that can accelerate the aging process and deprive the skin of its vitality. The skin rejuvenation application invigorates, oxygenates, and detoxifies the skin. After the skin has been opened up and made receptive by the skin rejuvenation application, the skin defense application absorbs into the skin to deeply moisturize and revitalize the skin. In addition to moisturizers, emollients, and similar ingredients that improve health and appearance of the skin, the skin defense application includes ingredients that can reverse and protect the skin from damage caused by pollutants (e.g., pollutants up to 2.5 micrometers) and pre- and pro-biotics that promote the growth and development of beneficial skin flora.

The present invention describes compounds and uses thereof in applications relating to absorption of electromagnetic energy. Preferred compounds are double bond-containing compounds capable of absorbing electromagnetic radiation energy and having improved properties.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a method for remarkably reducing a critical micelle concentration of an anionic surfactant, which is used in a large amount currently, to reduce the amount to be used. Also, the objective of the present invention is to provide a surfactant composition of which whole critical micelle concentration is remarkably reduced and in which an amount of an anionic surfactant is reduced in comparison with the case of using an anionic surfactant only as a surfactant. The method for reducing a critical micelle concentration of an anionic surfactant according to the present invention is characterized in using a cyclic lipopeptide biosurfactant in combination with the anionic surfactant.
