Abstract: This invention relates to syndet-based compositions having pH of 4.5 to 5.5 wherein use of caprylic acid has been unexpectedly found to enhance bacterial kill.

Abstract: The invention relates to a personal cleansing composition that delivers enhanced deposition of sunscreens on to the topical surface of the body. The composition more particularly provides for such wash off compositions that ensure that the sunscreens incorporated therein are stable and due to the high deposition on to surface provide high Sun Protection Factor (SPF). This is achieved through combination of two select water-soluble sunscreens in a high surfactant containing composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a topical composition. The present invention more particularly relates to a topical composition for antimicrobial benefit and a method of disinfecting a surface. According to the invention there is provided a topical composition comprising: a) 0.1 to 10% by weight of Niacinamide or its derivatives; b) 0.01% to 5% by weight of a first quaternary ammonium salt comprising Didecyl Dimethyl Ammonium Chloride; c) 0.01 to 5% by weight of a second quaternary ammonium salt; and d) a cosmetically acceptable base.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sanitizer composition for topical use, i.e. for application onto the human skin, especially on hands for instantaneous disinfection of the body part while imparting long lasting immunity benefit. The sanitizer composition comprising high amount of alcohol and vitamin B3 compound or a derivative thereof is seen to be hazy and this problem is solved by inclusion of specific type non-ionic surfactant.

Abstract: This invention relates to an antimicrobial composition for application onto human skin, said composition comprising: a. 20 to 90 wt. % of one or more C2 to C4 monohydric alcohols; b. 0.5 to 10 wt. % vitamin B3 compound; c. 1 to 20 wt. % of one or more polyols; and wherein the weight ratio of the vitamin B3 compound to the one or more polyols is in the range of 1:2 to 1:20 and wherein the viscosity of the composition is in the range of 0.5 Pa s (500 cps) to 18 Pa s (18000 cps) at 25° C. wherein the one or more C2 to C4 monohydric alcohols are selected from ethanol, isopropyl alcohol and combinations thereof and further wherein the composition comprises a combination of ethanol and isopropyl alcohol.

Abstract: This invention relates to a liquid or soft-solid personal cleansing composition that utilises the detergency properties of new materials which are more efficient, more inexpensive and are an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional soaps or synthetic surfactants. It more particularly relates to a cleansing composition in liquid, gel or cream formats. The present invention provides for a personal cleansing composition comprising (i) 1 to 50% of treated clay particles; and (ii) a cosmetically acceptable base; wherein said treated clay particles are asymmetric 1:1 or 2:1:1 clay particles having alternating tetrahedral and octahedral sheets terminating with a tetrahedral sheet at one external surface plane and an octahedral sheet at another external surface plane, with a fatty acid of carbon chain length 10 to 22 attached to coordinating cation on one of said exterior surface planes.
