Abstract: The invention refers to a new cosmetic gel product which contains oils or fats and suitable gel forming polymers and which has improved characteristics as regards stability and structure. The product of the invention comprises 5-85% by weight of a fat phase forming agent selected from among oils, hydrogenated hydrocarbons, alkenes, mono esters, di esters, tri esters and mixtures thereof, 0.1-15% by weight of a further gelling agent selected from among 12-hydroxy stearic acid, polyethylene whose molecular weight is between 400 and 2500 Daltons, glyceryl behenate and mixtures thereof, 0.5-5% by weight of a surface-active agent, and ad 100% by weight other auxiliary substances, carrier substances, active substances and mixtures thereof, all percentages being relative to the weight of the gel product. The product is wax-free and free of fatty absorbing substances and has as a stick a water content up to 60% and with no sweating or bleeding.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel cosmetic product with special flexibility and stretching characteristics, so-called “stretch-mascara”. The mascara has an oil phase and an aqueous phase, said oil phase containing 2 to 10 wt. % of an unbranched polyethylene wax with a molecular weight of 400 to 1500 Dalton, in relation to the weight of the oil phase, and at least one other wax or oil or mixture thereof. The aqueous phase contains 0.5 to 5% of a film former PVP/PVP-VA, polyquaternium-46 and mixtures thereof. The product also contains 0.5 to 20 wt. % of an external film former phase with a water-soluble film former selected from the group PEG/PPG-25/25 dimethicone/carylates/t-butyl acrylates copolymer, polyurethane-1 and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a highly viscous cosmetic product having a novel wax and gel based structure. The inventive cosmetic product is a combination of the structure of a gel, an emulsion, and a wax, and contains the following components (in wt. %): 0.01-8% of a gel-forming substance, between 0.01-3% of the gel-forming substance being gellan gum; 0.01-10% of humectant; 0.1-2% of a hardening agent for the structure of the gel, containing inorganic salts which are at least partially soluble in water; 0.1-10% of a natural or synthetic cosmetic wax; 10-90% of an emulsion-forming agent selected from cosmetic oils and esters, and mixtures of oils, esters and water; 001-15% of an anionic or nonionic emulsifying agent; 4-30 wt. % of pigments. Said product has a penetratin value between 15 and 66, measured by means of a 12 g cone penetrometer.

Abstract: There are disclosed stabilized Ti-Sn-O nanoclusters formed by complexing Ti-Sn-O nanoclusters with a salt of an alpha-hydroxy acid and also complexed nanoclusters with increased charge transfer interaction formed by annealing the complexed nanoclusters. Also disclosed are compositions for protection against ultraviolet radiation in which the nanoclusters are utilized with the usual topical carriers in an amount to give the level of sun protection factor (SPF) desired. Further disclosed is the method of making the nanoclusters involving acid hydrolyzing a titanium alkoxide and then reacting the hydrolyzed alkoxide with a tin halide.
