Disclosed in the present disclosure is a composition for improving skin damage caused by fine dust, which contains an Aureobasidium pullulans strain; a lysate thereof; a culture thereof; or an extract of the strain, the lysate or the culture as an active ingredient, and the composition has an effect of promoting the expression of keratinocyte differentiation markers and granular layer tight junction markers, thereby enhancing the skin barrier function and having skin-moisturizing, anti-aging and wrinkle-suppressing effects, and, thus, has an excellent effect in terms of improving skin damage caused by fine dust.

The present invention relates to the use of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione or one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts in the treatment of rare chronic inflammatory pulmonary diseases. The invention in particular relates to the use of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione sodium salt for said purposes.

Disclosed are personal care compositions, e.g., natural liquid soap compositions, comprising an effective amount of a long chain alkyl (C.sub.6-C.sub.22) anionic surfactant (e.g., disodium 2-sulfolaurate), an effective amount of an amphoteric surfactant (e.g., cocamidopropyl betaine), an effective amount of one or more alkyl glucoside(s) (e.g., decyl glucoside and coco-glucoside); and water, as well as to methods of using these compositions.

This invention relates to a composition, in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion, containing: —at least 6% by weight in relation to the total weight of the composition, of at least one non-volatile hydrocarbon-based oil H1 chosen from plant oils or non-volatile triglycerides with a molecular weight greater than 400 Da, non-volatile non-polar hydrocarbon-based oils with a molecular weight greater than 350 Da, non-volatile ester oils with a molecular weight greater than 350 Da, and mixtures thereof; —optionally less than 5% by weight in relation to the total weight of said composition of non-volatile hydrocarbon-based oil(s) H2 chosen from C.sub.10-C.sub.26 alcohols, preferably monoalcohols; non-volatile triglycerides with a molecular weight less than or equal to 400 Da; non-volatile ester in oils with a molecular weight less than or equal to 350 Da; non-volatile non-polar hydrocarbon-based oils with a molecular weight less than or equal to 350 Da; dialkyl carbonates; and mixtures thereof; —at least 15% by weight of water with respect to the total weight of said composition; —at least one nonionic hydrocarbon-based or silicone surfactant; and —at least one polar hydrocarbon-based wax chosen from beeswaxes; synthetic beeswaxes; (poly)oxyalkylenated hydrocarbon waxes, the oxyalkykenated residue(s) being C.sub.2-C.sub.4 or (poly)glycerolated; alcohol waxes, and mixtures thereof.

Compositions are provided that include date palm pollen or an extract thereof. The compositions may be formulated for topical use in methods of treatment or prophylaxis of various skin conditions or methods to counteract the effects of skin aging.

The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising a peroxide compound and a zinc compound, wherein the weight ratio of the peroxide compound to the zinc compound is from 1:10 to 5:1.

An object of the present invention is to provide an external composition for skin excellent in ultraviolet-ray absorbability. The present invention relates to the external composition for skin comprising (a) an ultraviolet-ray absorber, and (b) an inorganic phosphor. (a) The ultraviolet-ray absorber preferably contains at least one ultraviolet-ray absorber which absorbs UVB. Also, (a) the ultraviolet-ray absorber is more preferably at least one ultraviolet-ray absorber selected from the group consisting of 2-ethylhexyl paramethoxycinnamate, phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, etc.

The present invention relates to a method for crosslinking hyaluronic acid, a method for preparing an injectable hydrogel, the hydrogel thus obtained and its use.

A UHT process for the manufacture of an aqueous antiperspirant composition comprising the steps of: (i) mixing aluminium-containing antiperspirant salt, water soluble calcium salt, amino acid, and water, (ii) heating the mixture to a temperature of greater than 100° C. at a pressure of greater than 1 Bar (100,000 Pa) and (iii) restoring the mixture to ambient temperature and pressure.

The present disclosure relates generally to compositions for natural and artificial nail coatings, and particularly, but not by way of limitation, to polymerizable compositions that provide improved adhesion-promoting and improved solvent-susceptibility.
