Abstract
The invention describes novel compositions and methods utilized for treating disorders and/or conditions associated with the epidermal and/or dermal level of the skin. Such disorders include hyperhidrosis, bromhidrosis, and chromhidrosis, One representative composition of the invention comprises; water, alcohol, aluminum sesquichlorohydrate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, polysorbate 20, isopropyl myristate, eucalyptus oil, silicone oil, alkyl benzoate, glycerine, talc, a hydrophillic silica, a hydrophobic silica, phenoxyethanol and ethylhexyl glycerine.
Claims15
A method for making an anti-sweating composition comprising;
- (viii) adding purified and/or deionized and/or distilled water to a vessel with the necessary amounts and concentrations of NaOH and/or HCl or citric or acetic acid or other base or acid to raise or lower the pH of said water to 8.5 (±0.1);
- (ix) adding hydroxypropyl cellulose powder to said vessel and stir a resulting solution until said powder is fully hydrolyzed;
- (x) lower pH of said solution to 7.0 (±0.1) using a 1N HCl solution and begin rapid mixing;
- (xi) adding Polysorbate 20 as an emulsifier for stabilizing oils during mixing
- (xii) adding aluminum sesquichlorohydrate during mixing, thereby lowering pH of said solution
- (xiii) adding silicone oil during mixing and ensuring viscosity of said solution does not exceed 200 centipoise;
- (xiv) adding isopropyl myristate during mixing;
- (viii) adding alkyl benzoate during mixing;
- (ix) adding eucalyptus oil during mixing;
- (x) adding glycerine during mixing;
- (xi) adding talc and/or arrowroot during mixing;
- (xii) adding hydrophobic silica slowly during mixing to avoid funing of fumed silica into the atmosphere;
- (xiii) raising mixing speed once full amount of said hydrophobic silica is added to said solution;
- (xix) adding a combination of phenoxyethanol and ethylhexyl glycerine as a preservative;
- (xx) adding hydrophilic silica in the same manner as steps (xii) and (xiii);
- and;
- completing said composition by mixing until said composition is a stable homogeneous cream-like consistency.
