Personal care compositions with acid functional silicone based structuring agents

The invention is directed to a cosmetic skin covering sheet which comprises a patch containing a cosmetic material for application to the skin or a cosmetic formulation which forms the cosmetic skin covering sheet in-situ upon topical application of the cosmetic formulation onto the skin, wherein each of said patch or cosmetic formulation comprises an ionic silicone as described herein.

Cosmetic skin covering sheets and their method of preparation

A method to gently and permanently relax or straighten hair utilizes a protease enzyme, and preferably the enzyme kerA. The hair is optionally treated with a swelling agent, after which it is treated with the enzyme in an aqueous solution. The hair is then physically manipulated, such as by ironing, to remove unwanted curl, wave, and or kink. The enzyme has the ability to cleave inter-peptide bonds, allowing the hair fiber to be relaxed or straightened with less damage to the fiber than would have occurred using traditional or existing straightening methods.
