The present disclosure relates to the field of hair coloring compositions. Described herein is an oxidative hair coloring composition including microcapsules made of a perfumed-oil based core and a polymeric shell. Also described herein are a method for coloring hair and a hair coloring kit.

Provided herein is a method of reducing or preventing sunburn caused from visible and ultraviolet radiation in a subject, the method comprising topically applying to the subject a sunscreen composition comprising inorganic UV filtering agents, antioxidants, and at least one inorganic pigment, wherein the at least one inorganic pigments and antioxidants are present in an amount effective to reduce or prevent sunburn caused from visible light. Also provided herein are sunscreen compositions and methods of increasing the SPF of a sunscreen composition that comprises at least one inorganic UV filtering agent.

A process that includes simultaneous and/or sequential steps for separating, extracting and/or isolating all or part of the components contained in the inner aragonitic organo-mineral layer and in the outer calcitic organo-mineral layer of the shells of marine bivalve molluscs. Also, compositions including these components, such as cosmetics and medicinal products.

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.

Provided are coated particles and methods of their use for providing healthcare benefits. More specifically, the present invention provides amino acid and/or polymer-coated particles, or particles coated with other materials, for binding to, or otherwise associating with, surfaces of the oral cavity.

The present invention relates to an elastic makeup powder derived from natural inorganic particulates, and a method of preparing same, and more specifically, to an elastic natural makeup powder and a method of preparing same, the elastic natural makeup powder being characterized by comprising: natural inorganic particulates therein; and an elastic coating layer, which is dry-coated on the surface of the inorganic particulates and comprises (a) a triester of hydroxy fatty acids with glycerin, which his solid at room temperature, and a derivative thereof, or (b) a glyceryl fatty acid ester, which is solid at room temperature, and a derivative thereof. The elastic natural makeup powder of the present invention utilizes natural ingredients and thus, when applied to a cosmetic material, exhibits skin stability, is safe to the human body, exhibits excellent dispersibility, and can significantly improve the texture of the cosmetic material.
