Patent number: 5576027Abstract: Hydroxylated milk glycerides having low levels of ethylenic unsaturation are disclosed. The hydroxylated milk glycerides can have enhanced resistance to rancidification and as such, are suitable for use in personal care compositions e.g., lotions, skin creams, lipsticks, eye shadow, and makeup. Personal care compositions comprising the hydroxylated milk glycerides can have enhanced properties as compared to personal care compositions which do not comprise the hydroxylated milk glycerides or alternatively comprise milk fat.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 1994Date of Patent: November 19, 1996Assignee: Amerchol CorporationInventors: Amnon Friedman, Stuart B. Polovsky, Joseph P. Pavlichko, Luis S. Moral

Patent number: 5567420Abstract: A lotion such as a sunscreen includes a pH indicator which colorizes the lotion until the lotion is applied to the human skin, whereinafter the colored lotion turns clear. A physiologically compatible pH indicator such as phenolphthalein is used which has a red appearance from pH 7.5+ and which has a clear appearance from about pH 7.0 to 7.5, the general pH range of the skin. The invention is suitable for use in any lotion, gel, mousse or medication that is best applied in an even and uniform manner to the skin. Accordingly, one preferred use of the invention is in UV-protecting sunscreens so that a user can ensure even distribution of the sunscreen on the body. In certain aspects of the invention, a cap houses the pH indicator and attaches to a container of the lotion, e.g a sunscreen. The pH indicator mixes with the lotion as it is applied to the skin.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 1994Date of Patent: October 22, 1996Inventors: John McEleney, Wende Reenstra, Curtis A. Vock
