The present invention relates to a hair dyeing process comprising at least one pigment and at least one aqueous dispersion of polyalkene supramolecular polymer with a surfactant system chosen from an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant and a non-ionic surfactant.

The instant disclosure generally relates to a dual component hair coloring composition for coloring mammalian or synthetic keratin fibers, the composition comprising composition A comprising a cationic polymer, pigment microparticles and an aqueous medium, and comprising composition B comprising an anionic polymer, aqueous medium and optional cross linking agent. Optionally or alternatively composition B may contain pigment particles. The cationic and anionic polymers are at least partially soluble in the medium and the pigment microparticles are dispersed therein. The hair coloring composition forms a dual layer coating upon application to keratin fibers such as hair and has a substantially permanent pigment lastingness following development (setting); minimally alters the keratin fibers, upon application; and substantially eliminates development time. Methods of using such compositions are also described herein.

The present invention relates to the use of a polymer or of a cosmetic product comprising said polymer, and additionally other known cosmetic ingredients, to bring about an anti-pollution effect on human skin or on human hair, especially to protect human skin or human hair from dust, wherein the polymer is a cationic, anionic or non-ionic polymer, and wherein the polymer has a solubility in water of at least 0.01 g of polymer in 100 g of water at 20 C. at least at a pH in the range between 4 and 9.

A cosmetic composition comprises (A) a silicone elastomer. The (A) silicone elastomer comprises the reaction product of: (a) a branched organosiloxane; (b) a crosslinking agent; and (c) a hydrosilylation catalyst. The cosmetic composition further comprises (B) a carrier fluid. A method of preparing the cosmetic composition is also disclosed.

A macromonomer precursor is provided that includes a polymeric chain derived from farnesene and a single functional terminal end. The functional terminal end may include a hydroxyl group, an amino group, an epoxy group, an isocyanato group, or a carboxylic acid group. The terminal end of the macromonomer precursor may then be reacted with a (meth)acrylate to form a macromonomer having a (meth)acrylate functionalized terminal end that may be (co)polymerized with radically polymerizable monomers, such as alkyl(meth)acrylate monomers. Alternatively, a copolymer may be obtained by first deriving a poly(meth)acrylate from (meth)acrylate monomers having reactive groups that would allow the macromonomer precursors to be grafted onto the poly(meth)acrylate in a second step. The resulting copolymer may be incorporated as an additive in various formulations, such as a lubricant, a hydraulic fluid, a cosmetic composition, and an adhesive composition.

Methods for use in selectively conditioning and remineralizing teeth. An exemplary method comprises the steps of applying a conditioning composition to one or more of a person's teeth, and separately applying a remineralizing composition to the person's teeth. The conditioning composition includes a conditioning agent, and the remineralizing composition includes a remineralizing agent comprising calcium ions and/or fluoride ions. The conditioning composition may be applied prior to or after application of the remineralizing composition. In one embodiment, both the conditioning composition and the remineralizing composition include different remineralizing ions (e.g., one including calcium, one including fluoride).

Provided are personal care compositions comprising a core polymer, at least one inner shell polymer, and an outer shell polymer providing SPF boosting and opacity, wherein the core polymer comprises polymerized units derived from monoethylenically unsaturated monomers containing at least one carboxylic acid group and non-ionic ethylenically unsaturated monomers, and the inner and outer shell polymers comprise polymerized units derived from non-ionic ethylenically unsaturated monomers and aliphatic monomers selected from the group consisting of allyl acrylate, allyl methacrylate, and mixtures thereof.

Disclosed are adhesives comprising a first compound comprising three or more 1,2-dihydroxybenzene groups; and a second compound that is a functionalized polymer; wherein the first compound and second compound are in the form of a mixture, and wherein the adhesive has adhesive properties when wet. Additional embodiments to methods of preparing an adhesive, adhesives prepared by the method, and articles prepared from the adhesive are disclosed.

The present invention relates to an aqueous dispersion of polyalkene supramolecular polymer with a surfactant system chosen from an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant and a non-ionic surfactant. The invention also relates to a cosmetic composition comprising such a dispersion. Use for caring for and making up keratin materials.

Disclosed are compositions and methods for their use for reducing tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) and/or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production in skin cells by topically applying to skin in need thereof, a composition comprising an effective amount of Opuntia ficus-indica tuna, Opuntia ficus-indica nopales, or both, or extracts thereof, to reduce TNF- or VEGF production in skin cells.
