Abstract

Disclosed are compositions, methods and kits for producing natural, organic personal hygiene and health maintenance products. The products can be produced and regulated under food preparation standards for safety, sterility and efficacy and personalized and prepared for an individual user in consideration of the user's sensitivities, allergies. The compositions, methods and kits are essentially free of chemically-formulated constituents, non-irritating, stable and environmentally friendly properties including organically grown raw materials and biodegradable products.

Claims (32)

1. A composition for topical applications to the skin of a subject comprising:

an emulsion of an aqueous phase and an oil phase,

a. the aqueous phase comprising:

i. about 25.5-47.4 wt. % of at least aloe vera juice as an aqueous carrier,

ii. about 2.6-2.9 wt. % of glycerin as a humectant constituent,

iii. about 1.40-1.53 wt. % borax as a first emulsification agent constituent, and

b. an oil phase comprising:

i. about 30.3-33.5 wt. % of at least jojoba oil as an emollient constituent,

ii. about 11.3-12.5 wt. % coconut oil as a surfactant constituent, and

iii. about 6.01-6.71 wt. % beeswax as a second emulsification agent constituent, and

iv. about 0.1-25.0 wt. % zinc oxide as a first additive constituent,

wherein the composition is an individualized, personal care product for the subject,

wherein the composition has an essential absence of chemically-formulated constituents:

emulsifiers, pesticides, thickeners, stabilizers, buffers, anti-microbials, artificial preservatives, and artificial additives,

wherein optionally, the aloe vera juice has extracted a botanical extraction,

wherein the botanical extraction is a rich botanical extract,

wherein the ratio of the aqueous phase to the oil phase is about 1:1,

wherein an emulsifier is formed in situ during dispersal of the aqueous phase composition in the oil phase, and

wherein the composition is at least one of protective, non-irritating, stable, environmentally friendly, and combinations thereof.

2. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising about 0.1-2.0 wt. % of each of a second or more additives as a wt. % of the total composition selected from the group consisting of red ferrous oxide, yellow ferrous oxide and black ferrous oxide.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein there is about 25.5-29.2 wt. % aloe vera juice and further comprises about 16.4-20.1 wt. % calendula extract in the aqueous phase, and an essential absence of the first additive constituent.

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein there is about 25.5-47.4 wt. % aloe vera juice, an essential absence of zinc oxide, and further comprising as a wt. % of the total composition about 0.1 wt. % to about 25.0 wt. % colloidal oatmeal as the first additive constituent.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein each constituent of the aqueous and oil phases is essentially organic and/or naturally occurring.

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is biodegradable.

7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is at least one of non-acnegenic, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic, and easily adherent.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is at least one of mild, non-irritating, quick drying, non-sticky, and non-drying.

9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the emulsified composition is selected from the group consisting of an oil-in-water emulsion, a water-in-oil emulsion, an oil-in-water-in-oil emulsion, and a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion.

10. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the emulsified composition is a topical formulation in the form of a lotion, a solution, a gel, an ointment, a patch, a paste, a liquid, a foam, a mousse, a spray, an aerosol, a triple emulsion, a nanoemulsion, a microemulsion, a hydrogel, a jelly, a dispersion, a suspension, and a tape.

11. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition provides at least one of a cosmetic effect and/or pharmaceutical effect.

12. The composition of claim 11 , wherein the at least one pharmaceutical effect is selected from the group consisting of moisturizing, soothing, smoothing, inhibition of: solar radiation effects, itchiness, inflammation, a skin disorder(s) and/or irritation(s), and avenanthramide activities.

13. A pharmaceutical formulation for use in the inhibition, treatment or amelioration of a skin disorder or condition comprising applying the composition of claim 4 .

14. A cosmetic formulation for use in the inhibition, treatment or amelioration of a skin disorder or condition comprising applying the composition of claim 2 .
