Disclosed is a composition having a substrate comprising metal oxide particles. The substrate has a coating thereon that includes an organic dispersant present in a amount that renders the substrate self-dispersible. Also disclosed is a composition, such as a cosmetic composition, that includes that self-dispersible coated substrate, and a process that includes coating a particulate metal oxide with an organic dispersant to render the metal oxide self dispersible.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing solid round emulsion beads by dropping liquid emulsion into a cryogenic freezing refrigerant. The obtained solid round emulsion beads can be stored and used at a low temperature. The solid round emulsion beads can be coated with a solution containing a composition which is solid at room temperature or which can form gel. The emulsion beads can be prepared by using liquid emulsion containing additional composition, which is solid at room temperature or can form gel, in the water phase of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion or the oil phase of oil-in-water (W/O) emulsion. The emulsion beads prepared by the present invention can maintain its shape without swelling and/or damage but with stability and does not give any grainy feeling when the liquid emulsion was applied on the skin.

The instant invention relates to a composition for cosmetic raw material containing microcapsule containing at least one encapsulated material comprising at least one core and at least one layered coating surrounding the core, and the encapsulated material being at least one particle having a high wet point and being optionally porous, and being only released from the microcapsule when the composition is applied onto a keratin material, such as keratin fibers or skin. The invention further relates to a method for preparing the composition for cosmetic raw material containing microcapsule containing at least one encapsulated material comprising at least one core and at least one layered coating surrounding the core, and the encapsulated material being at least one particle having a high wet point and being optionally porous, and being only released from the microcapsule when the composition is applied onto a keratin material, such as keratin fibers or skin.

Cosmetic compositions including a) 0.05 to 10% by weight of a hydrophobized metal oxide powder, b) 0.01 to 2.0% by weight of at least one white pigment, c) 1.0 to 50% by weight of wax, d) 1.0 to 30% by weight of an emulsifier, e) 0.1 to 25% by weight of an organic polyol, and f) 5.0 to 90% by weight of water,
the use thereof for temporary hair shaping, and a method using these compositions.

The present invention relates to a method of preparing a colored gloss pigment using a natural dye. According to the present disclosure, the method may include preparing a dye from a dye material of natural dyes; titrating the dye with an inorganic salt solution and subsequently adjusting a pH neutral to prepare a natural pigment containing the dye; dispersing a substrate coated with a metal oxide into a DI water to form a substrate suspension; and introducing a pH adjusting agent and the natural pigment into the substrate suspension to coat a surface of the substrate with the natural pigment.

Provided are: a particulate composition which exhibits high water dispersibility regardless of the kind of solid particles; and a method for producing this particulate composition. Also provided are: a liquid composition; a surface modifying agent; and a method for improving water dispersibility. The present invention additionally provides: a particulate composition which has dispersibility in an oil-based material; and a method for producing this particulate composition. A particulate composition according to the present invention contains solid particles and an amphiphilic substance that is present on the surfaces of the solid particles; and the amphiphilic substance has an ability of forming vesicles in water. A method for producing a particulate composition according to the present invention comprises: a step for preparing a mixture of solid particles and a solvent in which amphiphilic substance that has an ability of forming vesicles in water is dissolved; and a step for removing the solvent in the mixture.

The pigment composition is an inorganic pigment coated with lauroyl lysine, in which a contact angle with respect to water is 95 degrees or greater, and a nitrogen specific surface area ratio between before and after coating is 0.70 or less. Further, the pigment composition of the present invention is an organic pigment coated with lauroyl lysine, in which a contact angle with respect to water is 95 degrees or greater, and a nitrogen specific surface area ratio between before and after coating is 0.90 or less. The cosmetic material, the ink, the coating material, the toner, or the molded article of the present invention contains the pigment composition described above.

The present invention is directed to a granulated composition comprising a salt encapsulated by a composition that comprises at least one wax.

Disclosed are a method for preparing exosomes from bovine placenta, lyophilized powder of the exosomes, as well as a composition containing exosomes from animal placenta and a preparation method and use thereof in anti-wrinkle on skin.

The invention relates to a nicotine chewing gum giving an immediate release and uptake of nicotine as well as an extended release and uptake of nicotine as well as describing suitable manufacturing processes for such chewing gum formulations and the use of the chewing gum for the treatment of a human being suffering from cravings from tobacco and/or e-cigarette dependency.
