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 relates to a structure for accelerating transdermal absorption, a manufacturing method thereof, and a cosmetic composition comprising the same, and the structure for accelerating transdermal absorption comprises an acicular body; a hydrophilic group binded to the acicular body; and a carrier binded to the hydrophilic group.

The present invention relates to a process for producing a colored nonwoven fabric that contains a colorant and nanofibers, which includes the step of injecting a polymer compound A by an electrospinning method to deposit the nanofibers on a surface of a collector, in which the surface of the collector on which the nanofibers are deposited is at least partially formed into an uneven shape.

A cosmetic product, system and method that creates a temporary, semipermanent, stubble-like appearance to bald or balding areas of the human head and face where facial hair typically grows. The bald or balding areas are covered in an oil to accept a pigment material, such as activated charcoal, applied to a desired area. The pigment material is then covered with a sealing agent and waterproofing agent to prevent smudging and enable the user to expose the covered area to water without losing the effect.

A process for producing an oxidized nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel is disclosed, wherein the process comprises oxidizing cellulose pulp fibers in the presence of hypochlorite as an oxidant and a heterocyclic nitroxyl radical as a catalyst; and disintegrating the oxidized cellulose pulp fibers to obtain a nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel; wherein all steps of the process after oxidizing are performed under aseptic conditions. An oxidized nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel and a system for producing the same are also disclosed.

A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics.

A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments having nano-sized diameters and exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics, wherein said nano-filament has a core and a sheath.

A shaving aid for razor cartridges comprising water soluble filaments having nano-sized diameters and exhibiting lubricating properties and with improved visual and tactile aesthetics.

Topical delivery systems are described. The topical delivery systems include at least one skin care active and nanocellulose in a cosmetic composition. It has been surprisingly found that the presence of nanocellulose in a cosmetic composition enhances or regulates the penetration of skin care actives. The present application further describes a cosmetic composition comprising a skin care active and nanocellulose and use thereof.

Disclosed are hair care and hair cleansing compositions as well as skin care and skin cleansing compositions comprising a fibrous material of natural origin and obtained from plants. The fibrous material comprises micro-scaled and/or nano-scaled fibril agglomerates. Such compositions show pleasant skin feel and comfort during and after application, as well as fast drying and fast absorption into skin. The compositions obtained are also particularly well suited for the topical delivery of cosmetic and pharmaceutical active substances into skin. Additionally, a method to obtain said hair care or hair cleansing composition or said skin care or skin cleansing composition is disclosed.
