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.

Suggested is a method for making and using an extract of halophytes or psammophilous plants comprising the steps of contacting the plant materials with a solvent, re moving the dissolved extract from the residue, recovering the extract and topically or orally administering the extract to a patient in need of dysfunctions of skin and hair.

The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge comprising a metathesized unsaturated polyol ester for improved lubrication.

A solid cosmetic composition including 12 to 50% by weight of a non-volatile liquid fatty phase and 40 to 85% by weight of a pulverulent phase including spherical fillers that are surface-treated with a metallic soap. Also, a process for preparing such a solid cosmetic composition and a method for making up the skin or lips using such a solid cosmetic composition.

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 compositions and methods for their use that include a combination of escin, Ruscus aculeatus root extract, ammonium glycyrrhizate, Centella asiatica extract, hydrolyzed yeast protein, and Calendula officinalis flower extract.

The present invention concerns a method for the cosmetic caring of the skin and/or mucosa, comprising applying a postbiotic composition comprising at least one postbiotic and at least one bacteriocin and/or endolysin, wherein said postbiotic is preferably a bacterial lysate preferably obtained from bacteria heterologously expressing said at least one bacteriocin and/or endolysin and wherein said postbiotic and said at least one bacteriocin and/or endolysin have a synergistic effect in the cosmetic caring method.

The present invention relates to a soothing composition, comprising (a) menthol compounds, and (b) one or more cosmetically acceptable carriers.

The invention relates to cosmetic and dermatological preparations which comprise a combination of levulinic acid and anisic acid. The preparations according to the invention are particularly suitable for use on skin. The preparations have a selective antibacterial effect on skin by specifically controlling anaerobic bacteria of the skin flora while having little or no bactericidal effect on aerobic bacteria. The compositions according to the invention are therefore suitable for cosmetic skin care and for the dermatological treatment of certain skin disorders, such as acne.

Personal care compositions and methods for treating or reducing skin irritation or skin inflammation. The personal care composition may include a carrier, one or more plant oils, and a cannabinoid source. The one or more plant oils and the cannabinoid source may each be present in an effective amount to treat or reduce skin irritation or skin inflammation. The method for treating or reducing skin irritation or skin inflammation may include contacting the personal care composition with skin, and optionally, decreasing the amount of IL-1α in or on the skin.
