A polyurethane elastomeric rubber composition containing a bio-based polyol cross-linked with a bio-based isocyanate using a urethanation catalyst such as a bismuth catalyst in the presence of a cosmetic emollient is disclosed. The cross-linked polyurethane elastomer rubber is in further aspect of the invention included in a gel after being milled in the presence of a bio-based emollient or mixture of bio-based emollients. The polyurethane elastomeric gel has good compatibility with cosmetic and natural oils and can be used as a gelling agent for these oils among other desirable cosmetic formulary roles.

Bio-based and biodegradable elastomer for cosmetic and personal care

Compositions and methods useful for maintaining the structural integrity of keratin in the presence of hair bleaching agents and coloring dyes are disclosed. The compositions provide a significant improvement in minimizing hair breakage while improving hair conditioning, smoothness and styling.

Compositions and methods for protecting bleached hair and enhanced oxidative hair coloring

A formulation is disclosed useful for semi-permanent, thermal conditioning and styling of the hair comprising a mercaptosilicone polymer derived from greater than 25 mole percent mercaptosilicone monomer. A method of straightening the hair is also disclosed which comprises the steps of applying the mercaptosilicone polymer formula to the hair and then styling the hair at an elevated temperature with a flat iron to achieve a lasting straight style that remains after more than one shampoo cycle.

Composition and method for thermally activated hair treatment

The present invention relates to a composition for treating skin comprising an acylated short chain bioactive peptide and fulvic acid, and optionally colloidal gold. The invention further relates to a method for topically administering the composition in an amount therapeutically effective to reduce wrinkles by building the dermal fibroblast matrix. The invention further relates to a method of treating wrinkled skin by topically administering the composition to an individual in need of such treatment.

Anti-wrinkle cosmetic composition

The properties of 2-pyrrolidone-4-carboxylic substituted polysiloxanes can be dramatically altered by increasing the presence of the carboxylic-substituted pyrrolidone monomer of the polysiloxane, such that the amidopolysiloxane has an acid equivalent weight of about 3:00-3,000 daltons and a molecular weight average Mw of about 1,000-60,000 daltons resulting in enhanced detergent and water solubilities and the ability to form water-in-oil emulsions thereby providing usefulness across a broad range of formulations having enhanced electrolytic and silicone and/or hydrocarbon compatibility and cleansing properties.

Pyrrolidone-carboxylic modified polysiloxanes having aqueous and detergent solubilities and water-in-oil emulsion capability

A composition is disclosed for treating the skin comprising an acylated short chain bioactive peptide andextract product. Also disclosed is a method for topically administering the composition in an amount therapeutically effective to reduce wrinkles by building the dermal fibroblast matrix. The composition may contain dimethylisosorbide or ethoxydiglycol as solubilizing and penetration enhancers for the hydrophobically modified peptide.

Anti-wrinkle composition

Adjuvant surfactant compositions for beneficially modifying the properties, particularly rheological properties, of surfactant systems are provided. The surfactant compositions, which include at least one primary surfactant and can be substantially free of monoethanolamines, diethanolamines, and diethanolamides include alkoxylated hydroxyalkyl isostearamide which is substantially a liquid at room temperature. The isostearamide composition may also include a second surfactant. Methods of preparation and uses are also disclosed.

Mixed polyalkylene glycol hydroxyalkyl isostearamides as rheology adjuvants

The present invention relates to heavy duty liquid composition in which solid particle or mixture of solid particles, wherein at least one side of solid has length or width of 3 to 25 microns, helps to suspend particles of much greater size (i.e., up to about 1000 microns) than possible w/o addition of the suspending solid particles.

Heavy duty liquid compositions comprising structuring solids of defined

The present invention relates to toilet bar soap compositions comprising 1 to 45% by wt. of specified alkali metal (alkyl glycosid) uronates and to processes for making them.

Toilet bar compositions containing glycolipid surfactants and a process

Improved process for preparing chelidonic acid is disclosed.
