A mascara composition includes a film-forming polymer portion. The film-forming polymer portion is stabilized in a vehicle that includes water. The film-forming polymer portion includes a high molecular weight vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer and an acrylic polymer having a glass transition temperature of 65&#xb0; C. or more. The mascara composition includes at least about 10 percent by weight of the vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer and is substantially free of wax. Methods of applying makeup to the eyelashes are also provided.

The invention relates to photocurable compositions comprising at least one inorganic gelling agent.

Photocurable nail compositions containing inorganic gelling agent

The invention relates to nail compositions including water, at least one high molecular weight latex comprising at least one styrene group, at least one latex lacking styrene groups, and at least one low molecular weight sulfopolyester compound, as well as to methods relating to application of such nail compositions.

Nail compositions containing latex and sulfopolyester compound

The present invention relates to nanoparticle compositions and, in particular, to composite polymeric nanoparticle compositions. A composite nanoparticle described herein comprises a photoluminescent polymeric component and a photo-thermal polymeric component. The photoluminescent polymeric component and the photo-thermal polymeric component can each comprise a single polymeric species or multiple polymeric species.

Composite polydots and applications thereof

The invention relates to nail compositions comprising at least one silicone-organic polymer hybrid compound and at least one alkyd resin.

Nail compositions containing silicone-organic polymer hybrid compound

Compositions including polycarbodiimide together with latex compounds to enhance the quality of the keratinous substrates. The present invention relates to a cosmetic treatment and process for treating keratinous materials, in particular for nail polishes and other treatments, where, according to the process, the polycarbodiimide and latex actives may be applied in a nail treatment that is a single step or at least two sequential steps. The ratio of the latex compound to the polycarbodiimide compound is in the range from about 50:50 to about 95:5, and the composition comprises 10 to 100% of a combined amount of the polycarbodiimide compound and the latex compound, by weight, of the entire composition. It is in particular a nail treatment composition and process for providing one or more of improved adhesion, water resistance, and shine through crosslinking between the actives, thereby imparting long wear, good shine, nail protection, and easy removal.

Nail polish compositions

An acetone deficient composition including at least one polyol, at least one alkyl carbonate, at least one monoalcohol and optionally at least one hydrocarbon based non-volatile oil is provided.

Acetone-deficient composition

In one aspect, electrically conductive conjugated polymeric compositions are described herein demonstrating compatibility with aqueous solvents and/or phases. The ability to provide aqueous compatible compositions from previously water insoluble conjugated polymeric systems, in some embodiments, can facilitate use of such systems in a variety of aqueous applications, including biological applications.
