A method for inhibiting hair growth in mammals using compositions containing FP receptor antagonists (e.g., prostaglandin F analogs that are block activation of the FP receptor). The compositions can be applied topically to the skin and/or hair. The compositions can arrest hirsutism or hypertrichosis, reverse hirsutism and hypertrichosis, and further prevent hair growth. These compositions can also be used to protect hair from chemical or radiation-induced alopecia or hair loss. These compositions can also be used to inhibit pigmentation of the hair or skin.

Cosmetic and dietary supplement compositions containing silymarin and sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrin, particularly sulfobutyl ether cyclodextrin, are described. The compositions and methods are useful in reducing appearance of facial redness in rosacea-prone skin, rejuvenating skin, preventing skin aging, inhibiting oxidative stress in epidermal and dermal cells, increasing collagen production, reducing the likelihood of skin cancer, treating or reducing liver damage from a toxin, or treating a liver disease.

The present disclosure relates to, inter alia, a formulation in a package, the formulation comprises one or more active agents and is co-mingled with a whipping agent prior to being filled under pressure into the package. The whipping agent is added in sufficient amounts to be dispersed in the formulation. The pressurized package is under sufficient pressure suitable to maintain the whipping agent dispersed in the formulation; and the pressurized package is under sufficient pressure to expel the formulation as a whipped formulation upon application of external force on the formulation in the package.
