A dry shampoo composition for treating, deterring and/or killing insect and arachnid infestations, particularly head lice infestations. The composition includes diatomaceous earth and at least one starch.

Antimicrobial polymer coating formulations are prepared that protect biological surfaces by treating, reducing, ameliorating, preventing or inhibiting pathogenic microorganism ingress to a human or animal host, reducing the potential for infection, particularly by necrotizing fasciitis originating microorganisms, through use of a polymer coating barrier containing antimicrobial agents that facilitates sustained release of biocidal agents active against such opportunistic microorganisms. Such formulations are effective for inhibiting microbial ingress pertaining to soft tissue and skin tears, abrasions, punctures and surgical wounds, and can be used as in water environments and as a skin protectant sunscreen and insect repellent.

The present invention teaches a foamable pharmaceutical carrier comprising a benefit agent, selected from the group consisting of a dicarboxylic acid and a dicarboxylic acid ester; a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of at least one surface-active agent; at least one polymeric agent and mixtures thereof; a solvent selected from the group consisting of water, a hydrophilic solvent, a hydrophobic solvent, a potent solvent, a polar solvent, a silicone, an emollient, and mixtures thereof, wherein the benefit agent, stabilizer and solvent are selected to provide a composition that is substantially resistant to aging and to phase separation and or can substantially stabilize other active ingredients. The invention further relates to a foamable composition further containing a liquefied hydrocarbon gas propellant.

The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition. The present invention provides an antimicrobial composition comprising at least one biphenol and monohydric non-phenolic alcohol in certain amounts. The antimicrobial composition provides synergistic antimicrobial benefit, particularly synergistic antiviral benefit.

A plant composition, a preparation method and an application thereof. The plant composition comprises the following components in parts by weight: 20-60 parts of lemon eucalyptus, 3-20 parts of lavender, and 2-15 parts of mint. By means of adjusting the content of lemon eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint, a synergistic effect among said three components is expressed, ensuring a repellent effect while repellent time is prolonged; introducing the plant composition into skin care products enhances a repellent effect while being safe and non-irritating.

A topical mosquito control product includes active and inert ingredients. The active ingredients include natural materials and may include soybean oil, geraniol, cinnamon oil and cedar wood oil. The inert ingredients include natural materials and may include bee's wax, isopropyl alcohol, sunflower oil, salt, triethyl citrate and water.

This is a topical solution primarily for protecting against mosquito bites while guarding against the sun.

The primary agent is Avon SKIN SO SOFT®{oil}.

The Avon SKIN SO SOFT® {oil} is being infused with Neutrogena® Ultra Sheer® Dry Touch Sunscreen {sunscreen}100+, pure essential Lavender Oil and any bran consisting of 300 mg of Liquid Vitamin C.

These ingredients when combined provide for a single solution, rather than multiple layering of several products, that will ward off mosquitos while protecting the skin from the effects of the sun.

This is a simple single solution having multiple purposes 1) keep mosquitos from biting and 2) protecting against the sun.

Applying this single solution will take care of both issues, mosquitos and sun.

Preparations and formulations capable of crossing and incorporating into a membrane of a cell or an organelle or an exosome are described. Methods of treatments utilizing the preparations and formulations are also described.
