The present invention falls within the general field of cosmetics, and in particular, it relates to a breakable capsule (1) with a membrane (2) and core (3) suitable for releasing an active ingredient comprised in the membrane (2), both for cosmetic use and for pharmaceutical use and to the preparation processes thereof. The capsule (1) has good chemical and mechanical stability wherein the capsule, once applied to the skin, reduces or does not generate residues and, at the same time, any residual trace produced by the membrane (2) can be absorbed or adsorbed by the skin. In addition, they have good stability against light and breakage.

The present invention relates to a composition which can effectively control bacteria by containing meso-2,3-butanediol, which is an isomer of 2,3-butane diol, and has excellent antiseptic power even without containing a chemical antiseptic agent.

According to the invention, it has been found that a particulate biomass containing an oxidation-sensitive material of value can be converted into a particularly easy-to-handle product in a gentle manner if it is subjected to a granulation with the addition of an agglomeration auxiliary.
