Disclosed are stable microcapsule compositions each containing a microcapsule dispersed in an aqueous phase and a stabilizing agent. The microcapsule compositions are stable for at least 4 weeks when storing at 45° C., and the microcapsule composition is considered stable when (i) the composition has a viscosity of 3000 cP or less and (ii) 20% or less water by volume of the composition is separated from the composition. Also disclosed are consumer products having such a stable microcapsule composition.

An improved delivery particle comprising a benefit agent core material and a shell encapsulating the core material is described, along with a process for forming such a delivery particle and articles of manufacture. The shell is the reaction product of: i) an isocyanate or acid chloride or acrylate with ii) an amine-containing natural material having free amino moieties, and iii) an a, β -unsaturated compound, the a, β -unsaturated compound forming C-N covalent bonds with the amine moieties of the natural material. The delivery particle of the invention has improved release characteristics, with enhanced degradation characteristics in OECD test method 301B.

Oil-based particles have an average particle size of 0.05 mm to 10 mm, and include: (A) polar oil; and (B) an oily gelling agent having a melting point of 60° C. or more.

The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising an aqueous solution of at least about 70% by weight water in combination with selected fatty acid salts and optionally an alcohol and/or a cooling sensate, as well as methods of using the same to treat symptoms of hot flashes. The fatty acid salts form fiber-like crystalline particles that together form a self-supporting mesh structure with voids, the aqueous solution being contained in the voids. When the composition is compressed above a critical stress, the mesh allows for the entrapped aqueous solution to be expressed.

The present invention provides starch film-forming compositions and methods of their use for preparing capsule shells. The starch film-forming composition includes a gellan gum and at least one starch, wherein the total acyl content of the gellan gum ranges from 14 to 34%. The starch film-forming composition of the present invention has the advantages of desired film-forming strength and toughness, which can be applied in soft capsules to obtain soft capsules with a desired adhesive property upon formation and encapsulation property and which is free of animal-derived ingredients. The soft capsules thus are suitable for all ethnic populations in the world and can be applied globally.

A glucose in solid form containing a matrix phase and a plurality of carbohydrate crystals within said matrix phase, the matrix phase containing amorphous glucose and water, wherein the carbohydrate crystals comprise glucose and optionally one or more other carbohydrate(s), and optionally wherein the glucose in solid form is coated with a dry powder coating. The glucose in solid form may comprise at least 50 wt % dry substance (DS) glucose and may comprise one or more other carbohydrate(s) besides glucose. A method for manufacturing solidified glucose is also provided.

To provide a water in oil type emulsion cosmetic capable of obtaining a smooth and fresh sensation of use, and has superior emulsion stability. A water in oil type emulsion cosmetic contains (A) cetyl PEG/PPG 10-1 dimethicone; (B) silicone wax; (C) polyethylene glycol; and (D) a polar oil.

The present invention provides a solid composition containing an amorphous poorly water-soluble material, and a method for producing the same. The solid composition of the present invention is a solid composition containing an amorphous poorly water-soluble material (1a), hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (2), and one or more types of water-soluble polysaccharides (3) other than hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, and is characterized in that an XRD analysis value of the solid composition is 4.0% or less.

A composition containing amitochodrially-targeted antioxidant of the SkQ type and a polyacrylate, agarose, agar-agar orhyaluronic acid polymer useful for production of pharmaceutical, medicinal and cosmetic compositions having good stability. Such compositions may usefully also include lactic acid.

Provided is a cosmetic comprising nano bubble-liquid and cosmetic ingredients. The cosmetic according to the present invention comprises nano bubble-liquid and cosmetic ingredients, in which the nano bubble-liquid is liquid in a nano bubble state comprising a liquid medium and bubbles, the bubbles having a diameter of 5 nm to 500 nm.
