An anhydrous shampoo composition includes two surfactants selected from (a) sodium cocoyl isethionate, and (b) at least one of sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate and sodium cocoyl methyl isethionate; and propanediol. The compositions can further include glycerin, gaur and citric acid. The shampoos compositions are capable of foaming when combined with water during use for cleaning and conditioning keratinous fibers.

A robust sunscreen composition is disclosed herein comprising a water soluble polymer and a water insoluble film former providing a synergistic effect in SPF retention and critical wavelength after immersion in water, salt water, and chlorinated water. The water soluble polymer comprises poloxamer 338 (and) PPG-12/SMDI copolymer, poloxamer 407 (and) PPG-12/SMDI copolymer, or a combination thereof.

Compositions for use in oral hygiene contain a Lactobacillus helveticus strain. Compositions further containing a Lactobacillus plantarum strain, especially Lactobacillus plantarum SD5870, are particularly effective. The combination of Lactobacillus helveticus LAFTI L10 and Lactobacillus plantarum SD5870 synergistically improves oral hygiene. The compositions are particularly useful against dental caries.

An antimicrobial eyelid cleanser composition contains: (a) a hypohalous acid; (b) one or more surfactants having a HLB value of 5 to 18; and (c) an aqueous vehicle, the aqueous vehicle comprising: (i) one or more tonicity adjusters; (ii) one or more osmolality adjusters for adjusting an osmolality of the composition; and (iii) one or more pH adjusters for maintaining the pH of the composition at between about 4.5 to about 8.0. The composition can be dispensed in a foam, liquid, spray, mist, gel or lotion form. The composition can facilitate long term eyelid hygiene by removing excess oil, debris and desquamated skin and provide relief for inflammation of the eyes.

Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a combination of zinc oxide and zinc citrate, and methods of preparing and using the same.

A pearling agent including a combination of low HLB surfactants and high HLB surfactants.

The present invention relates to a cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and a photoprotective system consisting of: (a) 5,6,5′,6′-tetraphenyl-3,3′-(1,4-phenylene)-bis[1,2,4]triazine, (b) 2,4-bis[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxyphenyl]-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine, (c) hexyl 2-[4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzoyl]benzoate, and (d) a solar filter selected from the group comprised of ethylhexyl triazone, diethylhexyl butamido triazone and 2-ethylhexyl salicylate,
wherein the photoprotective system represents between 4% and 20% by weight of the composition relative to the total weight of the composition.
