Abstract: The disclosure relates to sunscreen compositions having a synergistic combination of ultraviolet light (UV) filtering agents that provide a high sun protection factor (SPF). Compositions according to the disclosure have high SPF values without requiring high overall amounts of UV filtering agents, and without requiring the use of oxybenzone. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to methods of using the described compositions for protecting keratinous substances such as skin and hair from UV radiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use in a composition for caring for human hair or eyelashes of an effective amount of a pyridinedicarboxylic acid derivative of general formula (I) or of one of its salts, in which R1 and R2 represent, independently of one another, OH, OR?, —NH2, —NHR? or —NR?R?, and R? and R? represent, independently of one another, a saturated or unsaturated and linear or branched C1-C18 alkyl radical or an aryl radical, this alkyl or aryl radical optionally being substituted by at least one OH, alkoxy, acyloxy, amino or alkylamino group, or R? and R? together represent a heterocycle, the composition being intended to induce and/or stimulate the growth of human keratinous fibers, such as the hair and eyelashes, and/or slow down their loss; the invention also relates to a cosmetic treatment intended to stimulate the growth of human keratinous fibers, such as the hair and eyelashes, and/or slow down their loss.
