A sunscreen composition comprised of one or more sunscreen active agents encapsulated in a cellulose derived capsule wherein the composition can contain one or more additional agents. A sunscreen composition can be mixed with a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product.

Provided are lip-based compositions such as lipsticks, lip balms, and lip glosses that have favorable transparency, haze, temperature stability, hardness, taste, payoff, moisturizing effect, feel, and/or resistance to droop and/or shear. In certain embodiments, the lip-based compositions are for use with a container that exposes a substantial percentage of the surface area of the lip-based composition. Also provided are processes for production of such lip-based compositions.

The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions which comprise a hyperbranched copolymer of the monomers dodecenyl succinic acid anhydride, diisopropanol amine and bis-dimethylaminopropyl amine having quaternary terminal groups and at least one liquid dispersion of an acrylic polymer which is a homopolymer or a copolymer of the monomers selected from the group consisting of (meth)acrylic acid, (meth)acrylic esters, (meth)acrylamide and amides of (meth) acrylic acid.

Disclosed are a double stranded oligonucleotide construct, configured such that a hydrophilic material and a hydrophobic material are conjugated through a simple covalent bond or a linker-mediated covalent bond to both ends of a double stranded oligonucleotide in order to efficiently deliver an androgen-receptor-specific oligonucleotide into a cell, a nanoparticle capable of being produced by self-assembling double stranded oligonucleotide constructs in an aqueous solution through hydrophobic interactions, and a composition for preventing hair loss or promoting hair growth containing the double stranded oligonucleotide construct. The double stranded oligonucleotide construct including the androgen-receptor-specific oligonucleotide and the composition for preventing hair loss or promoting hair growth containing the same as an active ingredient can suppress the expression of an androgen receptor with high efficiency without side effects, and can thus exhibit excellent effects on preventing hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, and telogen effluvium, and promoting hair growth.

The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions which comprise a hyperbranched copolymer of the monomers dodecenyl succinic acid anhydride, diisopropanol amine and bis-dimethylaminopropyl amine having quaternary terminal groups and a liquid and/or solid organic UV-filter. The copolymer is used in a cosmetic composition comprising the UV-filter for reducing the material transfer to a contacted surface. Preferably the copolymer is polyquatemium-110.
