An anti-aging formula is provided. The anti-aging formula comprises a first microbial blend, a second microbial blend, chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D.sub.3, vitamin E, astragalus, and resveratrol. The first microbial blend comprises one or more lactobacillus bacteria, one or more streptococcus bacteria, one or more bifidobacterium bacteria, and kefir microflora. The second microbial blend comprises one or more lactobacillus bacterium, one or more lactococcus bacteria, and one or more bifidobacterium bacteria. The anti-aging formula is provided as a dietary supplement or drug for human use and is aimed at reversing aging. The formula targets particular genes and proteins that influence the process of aging, including Klotho, telomerase, and sirtuins. In addition, the anti-aging formula induces DNA time dilation, time reversal and quantum entanglement.

The invention relates to an antimicrobial mixture containing 4-(3-ethoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)butan-2-one and chlorphenesin, and also to a cosmetic composition containing such a mixture. Use in caring for, making up and cleansing keratin materials.

The present invention is directed to methods for treating or ameliorating skin conditions, diabetic conditions, cardiovascular conditions, cancer, infections or metal poisoning, enhancing performance, or providing nutritional support, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof compositions comprising a magnetic dipole stabilized solution (MDSS). The MDSS solution may include additional components and can be provided in a kit.

A process for permanently reshaping keratin fibers comprising mixing a component A and a component B to form a reducing composition. The component A comprises at least one thiol-based reducing compound having one thiol group selected from the group consisting of thioglycolic acid and derivatives thereof, thiolactic acid and derivatives thereof, 3-mercaptopropionic acid and derivatives thereof, and cysteine and derivatives thereof, and has pH 7.0 or less and the component B comprises at least one buffer salt selected from the group consisting of carbonates, bicarbonates and carbamates, and has pH 8.0 or more, wherein at least one of the component A and component B comprises at least one disulfide compound that is further defined, and wherein the reducing composition has a pH ranging from 7.0 to 7.8 and a viscosity ranging from 500 cps to 100,000 cps. The reducing composition is then applied to the keratin fibers.

A cleansing composition and method of using a cleansing composition, the cleansing composition including a blend of three different emollients, the emollients including a first stearic ester, a second stearic ester, and a branched hydrocarbon, where the first stearic ester and second stearic ester are different from each other.

Provided are largely aqueous topical antimicrobial cleaning composition which provides an antimicrobial benefit, as well as methods for their production and methods for their use. The compositions comprise at least two different cationic surfactants which provide a primary antimicrobial benefit, and as a predominant further surfactant an amine oxide surfactant. The composition are at an acidic pH and are highly effective in providing an antimicrobial benefit to topical surfaces, e.g, epidermis and hair.

The present invention relates to the use of methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol, optionally in combination with tris-biphenyl triazine, to reduce fabric staining of a sunscreen or daily care composition, wherein the sunscreen or daily care composition comprises (i) at least one particulate UV-f liter; and/or (ii) at least one oil soluble UV-A filter, wherein the at least one oil soluble UV-A filter is present in an amount of at most 3% by weight, based on the total weight of the sunscreen or daily care composition; and/or (iii) at least one water soluble UV filter. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of methylene bis-benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol, optionally in combination with tris-biphenyl triazine, to facilitate the washability of such sunscreen or daily care compositions from textiles.

The present application relates to cosmetic compositions and in particular, to skintightening compositions and to compositions that improve the appearance of the skin by providing skin-tightening improvements to the skin, for treatment of, for example, eye bags, facial wrinkles and other skin imperfections, the cosmetic compositions comprising a polyvalent silicate; at least one film former, and a carboxylic acid wherein the pH of the composition is in the range 6.0 to 11.2 wherein the composition provides a tightening effect on application to the skin. The present invention provides a composition which provides an efficient tightening product yet with good natural skin shine but without the white residue appearance associated with known products.

Methods of use and compositions useful for moisturizing skin, conditioning skin, reducing lines and wrinkles, evening skin tone, lightening skin tone, increasing skin radiance, elasticity, skin barrier function, and/or skin firmness, reducing photodamage, reducing sagging skin, increasing anti-oxidant capacity in skin, MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-9, pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., lipoxygenase, IL-6, Il-8, TNF-α, or VEGF), and/or elastase expression in skin, and/or increasing collagen expression in skin, elastin expression in skin, laminin expression in skin, and/or fibronectin expression in skin are disclosed herein. The composition includes a combination of one or more of Rosmarinus officianalis leaf extract, Caulerpa lentillifera extract, Moms alba fruit extract, and Porphyridium cruentum extract.

The present invention relates to a composition for treating keratin fibers, preferably hair, comprising (a) tartaric acid, (b) at least one aromatic alcohol, (c) at least one organopolysiloxane selected from polydialkylsiloxane, polydiarylsiloxane, and polyalkylarylsiloxane, and (d) at least one amino-modified silicone.
