An opaque antiperspirant composition, including an antiperspirant active, a high HLB surfactant, an emollient, and a gelling agent, wherein the high HLB surfactant includes a high HLB glyceryl monostearate mixture.

A two-part oxidative dyeing composition is described. The two-part composition has an alkaline first part comprising oxidative dye couplers and/or oxidative dye precursors, and a second part comprising hydrogen peroxide, xanthine and/or its derivatives, and a lipophilic compound. The second part is formulated as water-in-oil emulsion and it was unexpectedly found that xanthines stabilize the viscosity of the second part composition allowing for improved dyeing performance.

The disclosure describes silk hair care compositions and methods of using and making thereof.

Described herein, a transparent soap bar for cleaning the skin including a soap surfactant, a synthetic surfactant, a fragrance component, an amine component, an antioxidant salt, wherein the transparent soap bar has a percent transmittance (% T) value of greater than 40% as measured using the method of Measurement of % Transmittance.

Described herein, personal cleansing compositions, methods and uses. Personal cleansing compositions can include a surfactant, a perfume, a hydric solvent, and water, wherein the composition is structured.

It relates to a cosmetic composition in the form of a transparent or semi-transparent gel, comprising (a) an oil phase; (b) a surfactant portion comprising a first non-ionic surfactant and a second non-ionic surfactant; (c) an aqueous phase; and (d) at least one C.sub.2-C.sub.6 polyol; wherein the first nonionic surfactant comprises at least one alkyl polyglucoside and the second nonionic surfactant comprises at least one having the following general formula (I) or (II): R(X).sub.nOR′ (I) wherein, R represents a linear or branched C.sub.8-C.sub.30 alkyl group or C.sub.8-C.sub.30 alkenyl group; X represents —OCH.sub.2CH.sub.2— or —OCH.sub.2—CHCH.sub.3—; n represents an integer from 2 to 100; and R′ represents H, or a linear or branched C.sub.8-C.sub.30 alkyl group or C.sub.8-C.sub.30 alkenyl group; (II) wherein, the sum of x+y+z represents an integer from 2 to 100; and R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.3, are the same or different and are each independently represents OH, or a linear or branched C.sub.8-C.sub.30 fatty acid ester group, with the proviso that at least one of R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 is not OH. It also relates to a method for preparing the cosmetic composition and the use thereof. The cosmetic composition has high oil content, superior stability and desirable cleansing efficacy.

##STR00001##

A rinse-off cleansing composition with improved viscosity. The rinse-off cleansing composition contains a surfactant system with an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and a non-ionic surfactant. The surfactant system is substantially free of sulfate-based surfactants

Compositions comprising extracts from marine organisms show beneficial effects on skin ailments. Fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging in skin are improved with the application of compositions with marine extracts. Production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are increased after application of the compositions.

The invention is directed to a composition suitable for topical application that comprises a naturally derived preservative having benzoic acid or a derivative thereof. The composition is stable when preserved with the naturally derived preservative and when at a pH that is above the natural pH of skin to as high as 7.25.

Composition for topical use including a gelled phase dispersed in a continuous phase, with: the gelled phase including a diol having 3-8 atoms and represented either by formula (Ia): R.sup.a1-C(R.sup.b1)(OH)—C(OH)(R.sup.c1)(R.sup.d1) (Ia), in which each of the Ra1, Rb1, Rc1 and Rd1 radicals represent, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom or saturated aliphatic radical having 1-5 carbon atoms, or by formula (Ib): R.sup.a1-C(R.sup.b1)(OH)—[C(R.sup.e1)(R.sup.f1)]t-C(OH)(R.sup.c1)(R.sup.d1) (Ib), in which t is equal to one, two or three, each of the R.sup.a1, R.sup.b1, R.sup.c1, R.sup.d1, R.sup.e1 and R.sup.f1 radicals represent, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom or saturated aliphatic radical having 1-5 carbon atoms, it being understood that at least one of the Ra1 or Rb1 radicals and/or at least one of the Rc1 or Rd1 radicals do not represent a hydrogen atom, and —a fatty phase including an oil, an emulsifying surfactant system and an emulsifying surfactant.
