The present invention relates generally to mascara compositions that impart volume to the eyelashes while maintaining a smooth texture and high shine.

Volumizing mascara compositions

Compositions and methods are disclosed for imparting super-hydrophobic properties to cosmetics, which can be used to significantly improve water repellency compared to traditional cosmetics. The compositions comprise a hydrophobic film former, and hydrophobic particles, in an emulsion base.

Cosmetic compositions for imparting superhydrophobic films

The present invention relates to cosmetic, dermatological, and pharmaceutical compositions that deliver, in an acceptable vehicle or carrier comprising a film former or wax and an effective amount of nanoparticles and one or more pigments and methods for improving the appearance of a biological surface by altering the optical properties of the biological surface. The compositions of the invention enhance color and may be topically applied to the biological surface in an amount effective in improving the aesthetic and natural appearance of the biological surface.

Nanoparticle compositions providing enhanced color for cosmetic formulations

Compositions and methods are disclosed for imparting water repellency to the hair. The compositions generally comprise a first hydrophobic particulate material having a coefficient of dynamic friction of 0.5 or greater in combination with a second hydrophobic particulate material having a coefficient of dynamic friction less than 0.5.
