The use of long-chain alkenones to impart desired characteristics in personal care compositions for topical applications is described. The preparation of mixtures long-chain alkenones and synthetic derivatives thereof is presented. Examples of compositions include abrasive soaps, with alkenones serving as natural exfoliating agents. Alkenones and their derivatives can serve as emollients, occlusive agents, stabailizing agents, binding agents, thickening agents, surfactants, and antimicrobials.

The present invention provides a foamable composition for administration to the skin, body surface, body cavity or mucosal surface, e.g., the mucosa of the nose, mouth, eye, ear, respiratory system, vagina or rectum. The foamable oil in water emulsion composition includes: an oil globule system, selected from the group consisting of oil bodies; and sub-micron oil globules, about 0.1% to about 5% by weight of an agent, selected from the group consisting of a surface-active agent, having an HLB value between 9 and 16; and a polymeric agent, and a liquefied or compressed gas propellant at a concentration of about 3% to about 25% by weight of the total composition, water and optional ingredients are added to complete the total mass to 100%. Upon release from an aerosol container, the foamable composition forms and expanded foam suitable for topical administration.

The present disclosure is directed to the use of a composition comprised of: (1) a first active blend of at least: (a) Jojoba oil/Macadamia seed oil esters; (b) squalene; (c) phytosteryl macadamiate; and (d) phytosterols; (2) a second active blend of at least: (e) EGF growth factor; (f) IGF-1 growth factor; (g) acidic FGF growth factor; (h) basic FGF growth factor; (i) VEGF growth factor; (j) vitamin B9; and (k) acetyl glutamine; and (3) a third active blend of at least: (l) an extract of lithothamnium calcareum; (m) pentylene glycol; (n) lactic acid; and (o) glycerin; (4) an emulsifier; and (5) a dermatologically acceptable carrier which, when applied onto skin, helps to positively influence inflammation, hydration, and keratinocyte hyperproliferation, thereby supporting skin barrier health, integrity, and functionality.

Cosmetic composition for making up and/or caring for keratin materials, in particular the skin and/or the lips, including: at least one aqueous phase gelled with at least one polymeric gelling agent that is natural or of natural origin; and at least one oily phase gelled with at least one lipophilic gelling agent chosen from particulate gelling agents, organopolysiloxane elastomers, semi-crystalline polymers and dextrin esters, and mixtures thereof; the phases forming therein a macroscopically homogeneous mixture.

Disclosed is a callus lysate containing a callus metabolite without a loss of callus metabolite and its preparation method, a capsule containing a callus lysate prepared through encapsulation by coating the callus lysate with a natural polymer material and its preparation method, and composition for external skin application and a cosmetic composition that includes the callus lysate or the capsule containing the callus lysate as an active ingredient, wherein the callus lysate of the present invention contains a large amount of a callus metabolite without a loss of callus metabolite and thus allows penetration or absorption of callus metabolite directly into the skin, thereby providing effects of the callus metabolite to prevent and improve various skin diseases and symptoms.

In some embodiments, soothing redness correction formulations are provided. In other embodiments, formulations to treat skin discoloration via a multi-modal approach are provided in some embodiments in which select ingredients work together to effectively brighten skin and treat hyperpigmentation. In yet other embodiments, certain formulations are renewal formulations adapted to treat the eye area to, for example, reduce laxity, puffiness, wrinkles and/or dark circles around the eye.
