The present invention provides a multiple, long-term use, antimicrobial glove. The glove is formed from one or more layers of material having a latex-based matrix with an antimicrobial agent, such as diiodomethyl-p-tolylsulfone, homogeneously incorporated therein. Optionally, the glove may also have additional antimicrobial agents incorporated therein. The glove of the present invention is capable of inhibiting molds and other microbes from proliferating on any surface of the glove, during both storage and use, which results in the prevention of malodor, discoloration, and degradation of the glove. Also, the glove of the present invention is believed to be capable of providing an antimicrobial effect to surfaces contacted by the antimicrobial glove.

An in vitro method for the prediction of in vivo UVA protection by a composition with sunscreen properties. The method includes the steps of: determining in vivo SPF; determining in vitro SPF based on the sunscreen's absorbance spectrum in the UV region; normalizing the absorbence spectrum based on integration area of UVA1; and calculating the PFA-PPD in vitro.

The present invention is directed to a cosmetic composition that has an amount of at least two rheology-modifying agents such that the viscosity of the composition remains stable over a broad temperature range. The compositions of the present invention may also include at least one of the following additional components: sunscreen agent, SPF booster, secondary emulsifier, emollient, moisturizer, humectant, film former/waterproofing agent, bio-active (functional) ingredient, pH adjuster/chelating agent, preservative, fragrance, effect pigment, color additive, or any combinations thereof.

The present invention is directed to an emulsion base for formulating cosmetic and dermatological compositions. The emulsion base has particular surfactant and/or emulsifier ratios such that a wide range of compositions with varying forms and additional components can be formulated without changing the ratio or amount of the primary and/or co-surfactant/emulsifier in the emulsion base or the amount of the emulsion base in the final composition. The emulsion base can be used in a system of formulating cosmetic and dermatological compositions.

In one aspect, a cosmetic composition includes a sunless tanning agent and a sunscreen agent. A photostabilizer is added to stabilize the sunscreen agent from the destabilizing effect of the sunless tanning agent. In this manner, UV protection is provided to the user when the cosmetic composition is applied to skin. In another aspect, a water-based sunless tanning/sunscreen composition includes a sunless tanning agent, a sunscreen agent, and a photostabilizer. The sunless tanning agent is DHA, and the sunscreen is avobenzone. Because the avobenzone degrades when exposed to UV radiation when used with DHA, the photostabilizer is added to enable the avobenzone to retain most of its original ability to absorb the UV radiation. The photostabilizer is a low molecular weight copolymer of adipic acid and neopentyl glycol.
