A water-soluble unidirectional moisture transport traditional Chinese medicine facial mask and a preparation method thereof. The facial mask includes a facial mask substrate and a facial mask effective ingredient layer, wherein a lateral surface of the facial mask substrate is a hydrophobic surface, and the other lateral surface is a superhydrophilic surface; the facial mask effective ingredient layer is loaded to the superhydrophilic surface, in which facial mask effective ingredients include a traditional Chinese medicine colloid. In use, by simply spraying water, the effective ingredients such as the traditional Chinese medicine on the surface can be quickly dissolved to exert effects. Its hydrophobic layer can be kept dry, which not only delays volatilization of liquid and prolongs the effective time, but also is easy to operate and is clean and hygienic. The present invention has a simple preparation method, is non-harmful and non-toxic, low-carbon and environmentally friendly.

The present specification discloses compositions comprising one or more encapsulates comprising one or more agents and methods and uses for the disclosed agents. A composition disclosed herein can be incorporated into a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product.

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 belongs to the area of cosmetics, especially to a delivery system for actives to the skin, such as face masks and facial masks. Particularly, the present invention refers to a delivery system consisting of a basic body comprises nonwoven fibrous materials and an active-substance preparation which is an o/w emulsion or w/o emulsion, and a wetting liquid that comprises one or more actives to activate the delivery system.

Disclosed is a composition comprising at least one core-shell microcapsule in a suspending medium. The microcapsule comprises a core and a shell around said core. The shell comprises a hyperbranched polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of amylopectins, dextrins, hyperbranched starches, glycogen and phytoglycogen and mixtures thereof.

The present invention relates to a composition for treating keratin fibers, preferably hair, comprising: (a) at least one silicone oil in an amount of 20% by weight or more relative to the total weight of the composition; (b) water; and (c) at least one polyol in an amount of 10% by weight or more relative to the total weight of the composition, wherein the ratio of the amount of the (b) water/the amount of the (c) polyol is 3 or less. The composition according to the present invention can also provide keratin fibers such as hair with improved cosmetic effects such as smoothness (e.g., smooth combing even if the keratin fibers are wet, and smooth feeling to touch when the keratin fibers are dry), ease of running fingers through the keratin fibers even if the keratin fibers are wet, moist feeling even if the keratin fibers are dry, less stickiness (or less greasy) on hair when the keratin fibers are dry, and volume down control (therefore, it can be easy to style the shape of keratin fibers, due to anti-fizz properties of the composition according to the present invention).

The invention relates to a method of customizing a nail-biting and/or finger sucking treatment solution, and a kit for providing a nail-biting and finger sucking treatment that is customizable for a wide range of afflicted users seeking to break a persistent nail-biting and/or finger sucking habit. In exemplary embodiments, the composition kit includes two separate containers, a first container having a nail growth-promoting, waterproofing composition that may be applied directly on a user's nails; and a second container may include an additive for customizing a bitterness factor of the first composition. Typically, the first container includes an applicator such as a brush. To facilitate adding the additive in a manner that is easily customizable, the second container may include a dropper for adding small doses of the additive composition to the first composition. The customizable kit allows the user to safely adjust the bitterness so that the treatment remains effective.

A semi-permanent colorant composition is provided that is exhibits excellent color deposit without heat or oxidative treatment, and resists fading throughout several washes.

The application relates to an emulsifying composition, in particular for cosmetic use, allowing an oil-in-water emulsion (O/W) to be obtained, the emulsion comprising at least one cyclodextrin and at least one O/W emulsifier of natural origin with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance value (HLB) of more than 8. The O/W emulsifier of natural origin can be selected from alkyl polyglucosides, mixtures of at least one alkyl polyglucoside and at least one fatty alcohol, and non-ethoxylated polyol fatty esters. The application also relates to a composition of the Pickering emulsion type, in particular for cosmetic use, containing the emulsifying composition according to the invention, and to the process for preparing such a composition of the O/W Pickering emulsion type, in particular at low temperatures.

The present invention relates to a method and a composition to prevent or treat acne by selective inhibition of P. acnes bacteria. This is delivered using a composition comprising P. acnes phage-derived endolysins where the actives are maintained at conditions like use of non-ionic polymers and specific pH and electrolytes range that ensure maximal inhibition efficacy.
