Abstract

Personal care composition comprising a dehydroacetate salt, and a dermatologically acceptable carrier, wherein the pH of said composition is about 7.0 and greater.

Claims

1. A personal care composition comprising:

a) a dehydroacetate salt; and

b) a dermatologically acceptable carrier;

wherein the pH of said composition is about 7.0 and greater.

2. The composition of claim 1, wherein said dehydroacetate salt is selected from the group consisting of sodium dehydroacetate, potassium dehydroacetate, triethanolamine dehydroacetate, and mixtures thereof.

3. The composition of claim 2, wherein said dehydroacetate salt is sodium dehydroacetate.

4. The composition of claim 1, wherein the composition comprises from about 0.001% to about 10% of the dehydroacetate salt.

5. The composition of claim 1, wherein the pH of said composition is from about 7.0 to about 11.0.

6. The composition of claim 5, wherein the pH of said composition is from about 7.0 to about 9.0.

7. The composition of claim 1, further comprising a particulate material.

8. The composition of claim 1, further comprising at least one additional skin care active.

9. The composition of claim 8, wherein said additional skin care active is selected from the group consisting of vitamin B compounds, vitamin E compounds, vitamin C compounds, vitamin D compounds, peptides, sugar amines, protease inhibitors, sunscreens, desquamation agents, chelators, skin lightening compounds, non-vitamin antioxidant radical scavengers, phytosterols, plant hormones, protease inhibitors, tyrosinase inhibitors, anti-inflammatory agents, topical anesthetics, anti-cellulite agents, sunless tanning agents, N-acyl amino acid compounds and derivatives, and mixtures thereof.

10. The composition of claim 9, wherein the additional skin care active is selected from the group consisting of tocopheryl nicotinate, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, hexamidine, ascorbyl glucoside, palmitoyl-lysine-threonine-threonine-lysine-serine, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), cetyl betaine, bisabolol, green tea extract, theophylline, undecenoyl phenylalanine, cetyl pyridinium chloride, dihydroxyacetone, panthenol, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, derivatives and mixtures thereof.

11. A method of regulating the condition of mammalian keratinous tissue, comprising the step of applying to the keratinous tissue a personal care composition comprising:

a) a dehydroacetate salt, and

b) a dermatologically acceptable carrier;

wherein the pH of said composition is about 7.0 and greater.

12. The method of claim 11, wherein said personal care composition comprises from about 0.001% to about 10% of sodium dehydroacetate.

13. The method of claim 11, wherein said personal care composition further comprises at least one additional skin care active selected from the group consisting of vitamin B compounds, vitamin E compounds, vitamin C compounds, vitamin D compounds, peptides, sugar amines, protease inhibitors, and derivatives, and mixtures thereof.

14. The method of claim 13, wherein the additional skin care active is selected from the group consisting of tocopheryl nicotinate, N-acetyl-D glucosamine, hexamidine, ascorbyl glucoside, palmitoyl-lysine-threonine-threonine-lysine-serine, and mixtures thereof.

15. The method of claim 11, wherein said personal care composition is deposited onto a substrate.

16. A kit comprising:

a) a personal care composition comprising a dehydroacetate salt and a dermatologically acceptable carrier, wherein the pH of the composition is about 7.0 and greater; and

b) at least one additional personal care composition.

17. The kit of claim 16, wherein said additional composition is a dietary supplement.

18. The kit of claim 16, further comprising an implement.

19. The kit of claim 16, further comprising a delivery enhancement device.

20. The kit of claim 16, further comprising instructions for complying with an application regimen.
