Abstract: The present invention is directed to two-phase sunscreen compositions containing (1) a water phase including an alcohol having five or fewer carbons and a polyol; and (2) an oil phase including at least one sunscreen active, a first emollient, and a second emollient, the first emollient having a first polarity, the second emollient having a second polarity, the first polarity differing from the second polarity. The present invention is also directed to a two-phase sunscreen product formed from the two-phase sunscreen composition and a method of protecting a keratinous substrate from UV radiation by applying onto a surface of the keratinous substrate the two-phase sunscreen product.

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. 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 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 present invention is directed to sunscreen composition comprising: (a) at least one oil- and water repellent emulsifier chosen from polyperfluoroethoxymethoxy difluoroethyl PEG phosphate; (b) at least one hydrophobically-modified emulsifier chosen from inulin lauryl carbamate; (c) at least one gelling agent; and (d) sunscreen actives, and wherein the composition is water-resistant, while not requiring the use of a film-former, and is a stable emulsion.

Abstract: A self-tanning aqueous gel composition containing: (a) a cosmetically acceptable support; (b) at least one monocarbonyl or polycarbonyl self-tanning agent; (c) at least one aqueous phase gelling agent comprising at least one water-soluble or water-dispersible, crosslinked or non-crosslinked polymer or copolymer; d) at least one tinting agent; and (e) optionally, at least one water-soluble or water-dispersible film-forming agent.

Abstract: Disclosed are sunscreen compositions containing at least one sunscreen agent, a volatile solvent comprising a cosmetically acceptable lower alkanol, and a fluorinated alkyl ether, and methods of making and using same.

Abstract: The use of dill oil or a mixture of two or more components thereof as a potentiator for a pesticide, such as an insecticide and in particular a pyrethroid is described, together with compositions containing dill oil, and their use in agriculture and in veterinary applications.

Abstract: The present application relates to a UV protecting composition containing: (a) at least one organic UV sunscreen active; (b) at least one semi-crystalline polymer which is solid at ambient temperature and has a melting point of less than about 8O0 C; (c) hollow latex particles; and (d) at least one additional ingredient chosen from: i) a UV light absorbing compound having an SPF of less than 2, and ii) an SPF booster capable of reflecting UV light, different from hollow latex particles, wherein the hollow latex particles are employed in an amount equal to, or greater than, the amount of the at least one organic UV sunscreen active present in the composition. The invention also relates processes for protecting cellular targets from UV rays and free radical-induced damage by topically applying a UV protecting composition onto a keratinous substance, such as skin, and processes for making such compositions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a water-insoluble reaction product of an oil-soluble polar modified polymer and a polyamine.

Abstract: A method is described for cooling fuel for a diesel engine system with a common rail fuel injection system having a coolant pump and a fan. The method comprises passing a returning fuel from the engine through a fuel to coolant heat exchange system to cool the fuel, and adjusting the cooling of the fuel by controlling the coolant pump and/or the engine cooling fan.

Abstract: The invention relates to a physiologically acceptable composition, especially a cosmetic composition, comprising at least one polyorganosiloxane containing polymer comprising at least one moiety which comprises: at least one polyorganosiloxane group consisting of 1 to about 1000 organosiloxane units in the chain of the moiety or in the form of graft, and at least two groups capable of establishing hydrogen interactions.
