In one embodiment, a liquid or flowable cleansing or skin treatment composition is described which is substantially nonaqueous and which has a continuous and a discontinuous phase. Components of the discontinuous phase can chemically react with each other or with water when water is blended with the nonaqueous cleansing or skin treatment composition during consumer use. In a second embodiment, a solidified cleansing or skin treatment composition is described which contains components that can chemically react with each other or with water when water is blended with the solidified cleansing composition during consumer use. Methods for treating the skin with the inventive compositions are also described.

Stable nonaqueous reactive skin care and cleansing compositions having a continuous and a discontinuous phase

Skin care or cleansing implements are described containing a liquid, semisolid or solid cleansing or skin treatment composition that is releasably associated with the implement. The composition is substantially nonaqueous and has a continuous and a discontinuous phase. Components of the discontinuous phase can react with each other or with water when water is blended with the nonaqueous cleansing or skin treatment composition during consumer use. Methods for treating the skin with the inventive implements are also described.

Personal care implement containing a stable reactive skin care and cleansing composition

Skin care or cleansing implements are described containing a liquid, semi-solid or solid cleansing or skin treatment composition that is releasably associated with the implement. The composition is substantially nonaqueous and has a continuous and a discontinuous phase. Components of the discontinuous phase can react with each other or with water when water is blended with the nonaqueous cleansing or skin treatment composition during consumer use. Methods for treating the skin with the inventive implements are also described.

A cosmetic composition is provided which includes from 0.01 to 10% of single-crystal platy barium sulfate, from 0.5 to 10% of a water insoluble powdered acrylic polymer in porous particle form and a carrier. The compositions have soft focus optics imparting radiance to the applied skin area without excessive shininess or opacity and have excellent skinfeel properties.

Single-crystal platy barium sulfate in cosmetic compositions

A cosmetic water-in-oil composition is provided which includes a water-in-oil emulsifying silicone surfactant, crosslinked silicone elastomer and conjugated linoleic acid. The conjugated linoleic acid functions to improve radiance on facial surfaces to which the composition is topically applied.

Oil continuous phase cosmetic emulsions with conjugated linoleic acid

A cosmetic water-in-oil composition is provided which includes a water-in-oil emulsifying silicone surfactant, organic sunscreen agent and conjugated linoleic acid. The conjugated linoleic acid functions to moderate shine on facial surfaces to which the organic sunscreen agent formulated composition is topically applied.
