A purpose of the present invention is to provide an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic having a fresh feeling in use like that of a skin-care cosmetic such as a milky lotion, while also allowing titanium oxide or zinc oxide, which are ultraviolet scattering agents, to be stably blended into the oil phase, and also providing excellent sunscreen effects. The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic characterized by comprising (A) an ultraviolet scattering agent having a hydrophobic surface; (B) a water-soluble alkyl-substituted polysaccharide derivative; (C) a higher alcohol; and (D) a non-ionic surfactant. The emulsion cosmetic of the present invention preferably has a viscosity, measured by a B-type viscometer at 30° C., of 12,000 mPa.Math.s or lower.

Heterocyclic compounds are provided. In particular, the heteroatom of the heterocyclic compound may be nitrogen. The heterocyclic compounds may demonstrate capacity of stabilizing photoactive compounds. Topical compositions comprising these heterocyclic compounds are also provided. In particular, these topical compositions further comprise photoactive compounds. Methods for stabilizing photoactive compounds are also provided. These methods comprise mixing the photoactive compounds with photostabilizing heterocyclic compounds.

A rinse-off cleansing composition with improved viscosity. The rinse-off cleansing composition contains a surfactant system with an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and a non-ionic surfactant. The surfactant system is substantially free of sulfate-based surfactants
