This invention relates to a hair care composition more particularly to a wash-off composition, especially preferred being a shampoo or a conditioner, which provides the desired anti-dandruff efficacy with enhanced stability of the active materials on hair/scalp during use. This is achieved through a judicious combination of an organic UV filter, a zinc compound and selective anti-dandruff agent. The composition comprises 0.01 to 3% by weight zinc pyrithione, an organic UV filter and 0.1 to 5% by weight additional zinc compound. The weight ratio of zinc compound to zinc pyrithione is over 3:1.

Embodiments described herein relate generally to apparatus, methods and systems for low energy processing of consumer personal hygiene products (PHPs) and formulations of the same. In some embodiments, a method of manufacturing a consumer PHP comprises combining a first material and second material at room temperature to form a first mixture, mixing the first mixture at room temperature, adding a third material at room temperature to form a second mixture; mixing the second mixture at room temperature, adding a fourth material at room temperature to form a third mixture; and mixing the third mixture at room temperature. In some embodiments, the third material and the fourth material can be mixed to form the second mixture and the first mixture and second mixture can be combined to form the third mixture. In some embodiments, the mixing can be accomplished using a propeller mixer. In some embodiments, the propeller mixer can be rotated at a speed of greater than about 200 rpm during at least one of the mixing steps. In some embodiments, the pH of the third mixture can be adjusted to between about 4.5 and about 6.5 using an acidifier. In some embodiments, the viscosity of the third mixture can be adjusted to between about 100 cP and about 25,000 cP using a thickener.

Cosmetic products with a high concentration of propolis bioactive components produced using a new method that achieves increased concentration of, beneficial for skin health, phenolic components. The increase in the concentration of bioactive components is achieved by incorporating a piece of beeswax of specific dimensions into the cosmetic product after having been sprayed with propolis tincture. In the cosmetic product the extraction of the bioactive components of the propolis (terpenes, phenolic components) takes place assisted by the surfactants of the cosmetic product.
