Provided herein are sunscreen formulations containing a metal oxide sunscreen, squalane, and an antioxidant. The sunscreen formulations provided have increased SPF per unit mass of the metal oxide compared to sunscreen formulations that contain metal oxide without the addition of squalane and antioxidant. Also provided are methods of preventing UV damages to skin involving the application of the sunscreen formulation.

An alcohol-free lotion for the topical application having sanitizing properties is made by combining an aqueous phase comprising water, a water soluble preservative, an antimicrobial active, and at least one humectant with an oil phase, wherein the at least one humectant is present in the aqueous phase in the range of from 5 to 30 wt. %, wherein the oil phase comprises an oil soluble preservative, at least one surfactant, and at least one oil, wherein the surfactant is present in the oil phase in the range of from about 20 to 60 wt. %, and wherein the aqueous phase to oil phase ratio is from about 12:1 to 1:2.

An emulsion composition, a cosmetic composition, and a method for preparing an emulsion composition, in which the oil components are not limited to vegetable oils, and which do not require xanthan gum or welan gum as an essential component. The emulsion composition contains an oil component, an aqueous dispersion medium, an emulsifier, and CNF. The CNF is an emulsion stabilizer, and obtained by unmodified cellulose defibration, and the emulsifier amount is less than 20 mass % of the total composition. The cosmetic composition contains the emulsion composition. The method includes preparing an oil phase, preparing an aqueous phase, and emulsifying by mixing the oil and aqueous phases. CNF obtained by defibrating unmodified cellulose is added in at least preparing an aqueous phase or emulsifying, and an emulsifier is added in at least preparing an oil phase, preparing an aqueous phase, or emulsifying.

This invention relates to syndet-based compositions having pH of 4.5 to 5.5 wherein use of caprylic acid has been unexpectedly found to enhance bacterial kill.

This invention relates to solid oral care compositions, for example a tablet, comprising a comprising a sugar alcohol and a lubricant. In certain aspects the invention is directed to solid oral care compositions that are tablets that comprise a lubricant, wherein the lubricant comprises a poloxamer, as well as methods of use and related kits.

A cream formulation or topical use made of a mixture of naturally occurring biologically active phytochemical compounds that possess a variety of beneficial animal and human health effects. An extract from an aqueous extraction process or other active ingredients could be used in the cream formulation. The present invention generally provides for the preparation of cream formulations containing active ingredients that contain individually, or in combination, an analgesic, natural product extracts, or a protein or proteins from the tripartite motif family of proteins (TRIM). The analgesic will provide mitigation of pain during the healing process.

Products and methods are disclosed relating to a deodorant stick comprising mandelic acid.

The present disclosure provides orally deliverable pharmaceutical compositions comprising DGLA and to methods of using same to treat a variety of conditions and disorders.

The present invention relates to a method of increasing the foaming properties of detergent compositions comprising at least one surfactant by incorporation of saccharide isomerate.

Cosmetic compositions are widely used to obtain certain benefits like e.g. anti-aging, skin lightening and moisturizing effect. These benefits are delivered by benefit agents (actives) like e.g. anti-oxidants, hyaluronic acid and resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol. However, these actives have a certain shelf life beyond which they tend to degrade in terms of chemical activity and/or their color stability. The present invention discloses a novel process to prepare cosmetic compositions that improved color stability of resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol and compositions comprising such actives when prepared as per said process.
