According to some embodiments, a method of promoting hair growth or hair stimulation in a subject comprises applying vacuum or suction using a handpiece assembly along a targeted portion of the subject's skin surface where hair growth or hair stimulation is desired and providing at least one treatment material to said targeted portion of the subject's skin surface, wherein the application of vacuum or suction helps promote hair growth or stimulate hair.

Disclosed are oral care compositions comprising an abrasive, cocamidopropyl betaine and an amine fluoride (e.g., olaflur (N′-octadecyltrimethylenediamine-N,N,N′-tris(2-ethanol)-dihydrofluoride)) or amine base plus fluoride, wherein the abrasive is present in an amount of from 16% to 30% by weight of the composition and wherein cocamidopropyl betaine is present in an amount of from 1.1% to 2% by weight of the composition, as well as methods of using these compositions.

The present invention is directed to a personal composition comprising a) a strobilurin; b) a 2-pyridinol-N-oxide material wherein the ratio of a:b is from about 10:1 to about 1:20; wherein there is a synergistic anti-inflammatory/cellular stress activity.

A mousse composition having high gloss and good spreadability comprising: (i) carrier; (ii) one or more surface tension reducing agents that reduce the surface tension of the carrier; (iii) from greater than 5% to about 20% by weight, based on the weight of components (i)-(v), of foaming agent, wherein said foaming agent comprises at least about 30% by weight of trans-1234ze; and (iv) optionally one or more active components in addition to said surface tension reducing agents; and (v) optionally one or more adjuvants.

[Problems] Provided are a highly marketable reversibly thermochromic composition that provides a black color during color development by using a fluoran derivative having a specific structure as an electron-donating color-developing organic compound, turns colorless during decoloration, and is excellent in contrast between a colored state and a decolored state and a microcapsule pigment encapsulating the same.

[Solution] Disclosed are a reversibly thermochromic composition including: (a) a fluoran derivative having a specific structure as an electron-donating color-developing organic compound; (b) an electron-accepting compound; and (c) a reaction medium which reversibly induces an electron transfer reaction between the component (a) and the component (b) in a specific temperature range, and a reversibly thermochromic microcapsule pigment encapsulating the same.
