The present invention relates to a topical or cosmetic system that includes a first element capable of acting as an electron donor and a second element capable of acting as an electron acceptor. Such first and second elements are spaced apart by a predetermined distance across a skin surface. The system also includes a third element extending over the predetermined distance across the skin surface, while the third element contains an electrically conductive medium for electrically connecting the first and second elements, thereby generating an electrical current that flows across the skin surface from the first element through the conductive medium to the second element in the absence of any power source. The present invention also relates to methods of using the above-described system for preventing or treating skin damage.

Microcurrent-generating topical or cosmetic systems, and methods of making and using the same

The present invention pertains to oil-in-water emulsion compositions having hydrophobic materials stably dispersed therein and methods for making such. The preferred method of making the emulsion compositions the formation of two O/W emulsions. A first O/W emulsion is for wetting or otherwise pre-treating the hydrophobic components. Thereafter, the first emulsion is added to a second O/W emulsion after the second emulsion has been formed. Both emulsions use a ternary surfactant blend of cationic, anionic and bridging surfactants, making the finished product a double or 'binary-CAN' emulsion system. Generally, the system has a bi-modal oil droplet distribution.

Hydrophobic agents stably dispersed in oil-in-water emulsions

The invention relates to a topical delivery system suitable for application to the lips, comprising at least one naturally occurring oil, at least one naturally occurring wax, and at least one naturally occurring diet aid. The invention also relates to a method for controlling weight in an individual by applying such a composition to the lips.

The present invention relates to a method of making a ringing nanogel with low levels of emulsifiers. The oil-in-water nanogel is thickened by an oil phase and a silicone component that self-structure to increase the complex viscosity of the composition and form the nanogel. The pre-emulsion, containing the silicone component, the oil phase and a water phase, is subjected to a high shear and high pressure treatment at least two consecutive times. The self-thickening of the gel occurs when the silicone component and the oil phase provide structure to the composition. Alternatively, the silicone component can be added to a pre-emulsion of the oil and water phases after the two phases are subjected to high shear and high pressure treatment. The combination of the silicone component with the treated intermediary emulsion is subjected to a second high shear and high pressure treatment which results in self-structuring of the silicone component and the oil phase. The resulting ringing nanogel has a difference in complex viscosity of at least about 10,000 poise under oscillation stress in the range of about 0 to 5,000 (dyne/cm), and has an initial complex viscosity greater than about 15,000 poise.

Ringing nanogel compositions

The invention relates to a water-thin emulsion comprising a non-phospholipid, non-ethoxylated pseudoemulsifier system, the system having a chemical composition with at least one hydrophobic moiety and at least one polar moiety, the size, shape and/or planar arrangement of the hydrophobic and polar moieties being asymmetrical with respect to each other. The emulsion of the invention is prepared by high-pressure homogenization of a crude oil and water emulsion containing the pseudoemulsifier. The emulsions require little or no traditional emulsifier to maintain stability, and are particularly useful in the preparation of multiple emulsions.

Water-thin emulsions with low emulsifier levels

The invention relates to cosmetic composition comprising a fluorescent-effective amount of at least one fluorescent mineral powder, in combination with a cosmetically acceptable vehicle, wherein the powder, when the composition is applied, does not substantially alter the color of the skin. The compositions of the invention can be used as color cosmetics and skin treatment products, to replenish the skin's natural fluorescent glow.

Cosmetic compositions containing fluorescent minerals

The present invention relates to a cleansing composition based on the composition of lachrymal fluid. The cleansing composition comprises an ionic aqueous base containing one or more electrolytes, a basic protein or amino acid, and optionally, a mucomimetic compound and a lysozyme. The cleansing composition is gentle to both skin and eyes, and is highly effective in removing even transfer-resistant makeup.
