The present invention relates to Regentide-034 and Regentide-041 and, more specifically, to a use of a mixture of Regentide-034 and Regentide-041 for improving skin conditions. A mixture of Regentide-034 and Regentide-041 according to the present invention is free of cytotoxicity and has remarkable effects of promoting cell proliferation and collagen synthesis, inhibiting elastase activity, and suppressing ultraviolet light-induced cell death and as such, can be variously utilized in the pharmaceutical, medicinal, cosmetic, and food fields.

Photochromic formulations including a core material and a photochromic layer overlying the core material and forming a particle are provided. The photochromic layer may include a plurality of photochromic materials, including a first photo-responsive pigment characterized by reversible diffuse reflectance at a first central wavelength from 490 nm to 520 nm in response to irradiation by photons of a first characteristic wavelength, a second photo-responsive pigment characterized by reversible diffuse reflectance at a second central wavelength from 570 nm to 590 nm in response to irradiation by photons of a second characteristic wavelength, and a third photo-responsive pigment characterized by reversible diffuse reflectance at a third central wavelength from 450 nm to 495 nm and a fourth central wavelength from 625 nm to 740 nm in response to irradiation by photons of a third characteristic wavelength. The first, second, and third characteristic wavelengths may be different.

Oil compositions containing two or more mixtures selected from the group consisting of a lauroyl glutamic acid diester mixture having a melting point higher than 33° C., a lauroyl glutamic acid diester mixture having a melting point of 20 to 32° C., and a lauroyl glutamic acid diester mixture having a melting point of −20° C. or lower can simultaneously achieve the texture properties (melting smooth feel, uniform spread over the lip surface, and transparent gloss), stability (such as improvement in breaking strength and improvement in temporal stability of the breaking strength), and the elasticity necessary for improving makeup duration of a lipstick.

A personal care composition and methods for generating increased foam volume in the personal care composition are disclosed. The personal care composition may include a carrier and at least two hydrocolloids, wherein the at least two hydrocolloids are present in an effective amount to produce increased foam volume. The method may include contacting a carrier of the personal care composition with at least two hydrocolloids. The at least two hydrocolloids may include xanthan gum and carrageenan in a ratio of from about 1.5:1 to about 9:1.

Personal care compositions comprising a polymer and a trisolvent system, and the use of the compositions in removing oily soils (such as grease or sebum).

Disclosed are hair care compositions, such as shampoos, conditioners and leave on treatments, containing one or more hydroxylated triglyceride oligomers. Also disclosed are methods of using the hair care compositions.

A cleansing composition and method of using a cleansing composition, the cleansing composition including a blend of three different emollients, the emollients including a first stearic ester, a second stearic ester, and a branched hydrocarbon, where the first stearic ester and second stearic ester are different from each other.

The present invention is directed to a composition comprising phytoene, phytofluene, and zeta carotene, and methods of using the same, such as for reducing collagen loss.

To provide a hair growth agent which is a topical agent that exhibits effect in terms of causing increase in hair shaft diameter and improving maximum hair shaft length and improving hair shaft elongation rate and new hair growth and increasing expression of genes contributing to hair growth in dermal papilla cells and promoting hair shaft growth at head hair, eyelashes, and/or eyebrows, a hair growth agent which is a topical agent is made to contain active ingredients in the form of palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminobutyloyl hydroxythreonine and palmitoyl dipeptide-5 diaminohydroxybutyrate.

Described herein are clay masks for skin care and methods of making said masks. The mask may comprise Moroccan clay, rhassoul clay, Kaolin white clay, glycerin, aloe vera juice, rose water, and lavender hydrosol. Additionally, the mask may include fragrance or preservatives.
