The present invention relates to a method for preventing or treating skin damage which comprises applying to the skin a composition containing an effective amount of a cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable compound capable of acting as an electron donor, simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with the application of a composition containing an effective amount of a cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable compound capable of acting as an electron acceptor, whereby an exchange of electrons between the electron donor and electron acceptor results in generation of an electrical current on the skin.

Skin battery cosmetic composition

The invention relates to cosmetic or pharmaceutical powder-to-liquid compositions comprising hydrophobically coated silica particles into which are incorporated water and a water soluble polymer, the composition containing substantially no oil.

Powder to liquid compositions

The present invention relates to self-tanning compositions comprising an effective amount of DHA in combination with an effective amount of propolis extract. The compositions provide self-tanning compositions which can produce a tan with enhanced coloration. The self-tan produced using the compositions of the present invention is more natural looking. In another embodiment of the present invention, the compositions comprise DHA combined with caffeic acid phenethyl ester.

Self tanning compositions containing DHA and propolis extract

The present invention relates to opalescent cosmetic compositions that are stable and suitable for topical application to human skin, and to methods for preparing and using such compositions. The compositions of the invention include (1) a hydrogenated indene-styrene-vinyltoluene polymer in an amount from about 0.1% by weight to about 50% by weight of the composition and (2) a carrier material in an amount from about 50% by weight to about 99.9% by weight of the composition. The opalescent composition may further contain a cosmetic material in an amount from about 0.5% by weight to about 20% by weight of the composition.

Opalescent cosmetic compositions and methods for their preparation

The present invention relates to cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising a powder containing a water soluble carboxylated gum and a clay crosslinked with metal ions.

Powder compositions

The present invention relates to cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising a magnetic metal species bound to an ion exchange resin as well as a method for preparing stable compositions of this type.

Magnetic cosmetic compositions

The present invention relates to solid lipophilic compositions suitable for topical application to human skin and to methods for preparing and using such compositions. The solid lipophilic compositions of the invention comprise dibenzyl monosorbitol acetal (DBMSA), lipophilic materials and one or more cosmetic materials.

Solid lipophilic composition and process for its preparation

The present invention relates to compositions that are stable, solid, and clear and suitable for topical application to human skin and to methods for preparing and using such compositions. The compositions of the invention comprise dibenzyl monosorbitol acetal (DBMSA) and a refractory material having a refractive index of between about 1.50 and about 1.65.

Clear cosmetic sticks and process for its preparation

Disclosed are cosmetic compositions for providing an artificial tan to skin which comprise dihydroxyacetone and an azole in a cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Also disclosed is a method for providing an artificial tan to skin which comprises applying dihydroxyacetone and an azole to the skin.

Skin tanning compositions and method

The instant invention relates to methods of preparing and stabilizing complex multiphase compositions that include distinct phases of water, gel, liquid crystal or oil and perfluoropolyether dispersed in a continuous phase of a silicone fluid. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of preparing a stable multiphase composition comprising the steps of mixing an aqueous solution of a water-soluble polymeric emulsifier, a silicone-based emulsifier and an oleophobic, hydrophobic silicone fluid in amounts effective to form a stable water-in-silicone emulsion; mixing the water-in-silicone emulsion with a hydrophilic gel comprising a homogeneous mixture of water and a sufficient amount of at least one viscosity-enhancing, water-soluble polymer, the emulsion and gel being combined in amounts effective to form a dispersion in which the gel is dispersed in the emulsion; and adding to the dispersion an oil or a thermotropic liquid crystal and a perfluoropolyether in amounts effective to form a stable, multiphase composition comprising a continuous phase of silicone fluid and independent, polydisperse phases of water, gel, oil or liquid crystal and perfluoropolyether.
