Nanoemulsions as emulsion additives are prepared to stabilize actives and prevent formulation discoloration. The nanoemulsions have at least 30% by weight oil and are suitable to add to emulsions and/or structured water to produce color stable end use skin benefit compositions.

Color stable skin benefit compositions

A method for stabilizing retinoic acid precursors and a skin benefit composition with stabilized retinoic acid precursors are described. The composition has a retinoic acid precursor and a resorcinol to impede oxidation of the precursor in situ in the composition.

Booster oils with stable oil soluble actives are described. The oils are suitable to be combined with end use compositions in order to enhance the compositions efficacy and ensure superior topical benefits to consumers after application.

Personal care topical compositions at skin-tolerant pH with cystine which is solubilized or has small crystal size below 20 microns. A process of making the composition is also described.

Personal care compositions with cystine

Nanoemulsions and a method for making the same are described. The nanoemulsions comprise a skin benefit agent in the water phase and they are made from two macroemulsions that have non-identical pH values.

Nanoemulsions and a method for making the same

Cosmetic compositions are widely used to obtain certain benefits like e.g. anti-aging, skin lightening and moisturizing effect. These benefits are delivered by benefit agents (actives) like e.g. anti-oxidants, hyaluronic acid and resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol. However, these actives have a certain shelf life beyond which they tend to degrade in terms of chemical activity and/or their color stability. The present invention discloses a novel process to prepare cosmetic compositions that improved color stability of resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol and compositions comprising such actives when prepared as per said process.

Use of chelating agents for improving color stability of resorcinol

Freeze dried active compositions are described. The compositions comprise less than 6.5% by weight water and they may be hydrated or added to end use compositions in order to yield compositions for delivering superior topical benefits to consumers.

A water-in-oil personal care emulsion with water droplets size below 20 microns, the droplets containing solubilized cystine. A process of making an emulsion is also described.

Personal care compositions comprising poorly soluble compounds

The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition and more particularly an antimicrobial composition for leave-on applications. The present invention discloses an antimicrobial composition comprising; a) 0.01 to 2% by weight of thymol; b) 0.01 to 2% by weight of terpineol; and c) 0.1 to 2% by weight of a cationic phospholipid complex.

Antimicrobial composition comprising thymol, terpineol and a cationic phospholipid

The invention is directed to a cosmetic composition and the precursor thereof. The composition has solid agent and liquid agent, both of which are cosmetic benefit ingredients. The solubility of solid agents in liquid agents in the inventive compositions is enhanced in the presence of a tricyclodecane amide.

Cosmetic compositions with tricyclodecane amides

Non-solid skin conditioning compositions comprising 12-hydroxy stearic acid, aminosilicone and water are disclosed. The compositions have a relatively low viscosity and are suitable for spreading on the skin.
