The present invention is directed to a hair care composition comprising from about 8% to about 25% of one or more surfactants from about 0.01% to 10% of one or more surfactant-soluble agent; wherein the composition has a fractional soluble agent concentration (a) of 0.5-1.0 wherein ‘a’ is defined as where C is the surfactant-soluble agent concentration, Care the surfactant concentrations and Kis the solubilization capacity of each type of surfactant (e.g. in units of ppm octopirox/weight percent of surfactant) wherein Kcan be measured easily for any surfactant and surfactant-soluble agent combination.

Compositions having enhanced deposition of surfactant-soluble anti-dandruff agents

The present invention discloses a personal care composition comprising: 

Enhanced stability of zinc pyrithione in oxidative environments, such as scalp sebaceous fluid

The present invention is directed to an aptamer composition comprising at least one oligonucleotide consisting of: deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, derivatives of deoxyribonucleotides, derivatives of ribonucleotides, and mixtures thereof; wherein said aptamer composition has a binding affinity for one or more fungi species from the genus

Aptamers for personal care applications

A skin smoothing film made from a skin smoothing composition that comprises sodium silicate, polyvalent silicate and water. Moreover, the film may be made from a composition that has a contraction value of from about 30% to about 160%. The film thickness is from about 5 microns to about 50 microns, preferably from about 10 microns to about 40 microns, when applied. The standard deviation of the film over the area covered is less than about 30, preferably less than about 25.

Applied films for smoothing wrinkles and skin texture imperfections

In one embodiment, a stable personal-care composition in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion may comprise a hydrocarbon wax, a polar oil, and a non-emulsifying silicone elastomer. In another embodiment, a stable personal-care composition in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion may comprise a hydrocarbon wax and a polar oil. The weight ratio of the hydrocarbon wax to the polar oil is from about 0.01 to about 0.5. The personal-care composition allows for previously unattainable levels of polar oils and/or aqueous phase within a water-in-oil emulsion.

Personal-care composition comprising a hydrocarbon wax and a polar oil

A personal care product having a personal care composition and a dispensing container with the personal care composition disposed therein. The personal care composition may have a pre-dispense G' of at least about 5,000 Pa. The personal care product provides a G&#x2032; preservation percentage of no less than 10%. The dispensing container can be a container body having a storage void containing the personal care composition, a movable partition at least partially disposed within the storage void, a drive mechanism connected to and able to advance the movable partition, and a dispensing plate joined to the container body. The dispensing plate has an orifice through which the personal care composition is dispensed. The orifice may have an inscribed circle diameter of about 1 mm to about 12 mm.

Personal care product having a solid personal care composition within a structure maintaining dispenser

In one embodiment, a personal-care composition in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion comprises at least about 10% of a non-polar silicone oil; from about 0.1% to about 10% of a first oil-soluble solid sunscreen; and from about 0.1% to about 10% of a second oil-soluble solid sunscreen. The weight ratio of the first sunscreen to the second sunscreen may be from about 0.8 to about 2.0, or from about 1.0 to about 1.5. The first sunscreen may be oxybenzone. The second sunscreen may be avobenzone. The composition may further comprise a skin-care active selected from the group consisting of a vitamin Bcompound, a sugar amine, a peptide, a hexamidine compound, and combinations thereof. In another embodiment, the invention relates to a method for improving the solubility of a second oil-soluble solid sunscreen in the oil phase of a water-in oil emulsion.
