The invention relates to a method for the stabilization of a polysaccharide (hyaluronic acid) with a biomolecule—amino acid—through crosslinking, to generate a bionic hydrogel based on physiological building blocks for applications in regenerative medicine. The designed biosimilar hydrogel is intended to be used in regenerative medicine for the purpose of regenerate, rejuvenate and/or restore the structure or function of impaired or damaged tissues, and to promote healing. The manufacture method is composed of a single step that includes mixing L-lysine and hyaluronic acid sodium salt in an aqueous saline solution with either EDC/NHS as coupling agent.

The invention relates to stable, mild and moisturizing lamellar liquid cleansing compositions which possess a lotion-like appearance conveying signals of enhanced moisturization. However, these liquids often are either unstable or cause poor lather production and other sensory deficits The use of a specific ratio of total acyl isethionates to acyl glutamates or other divalent anionic surfactant in a structured liquid product improve stability and lather production, mildness and acceptable odor.

The invention is directed to a composition suitable for topical application that comprises a naturally derived preservative having benzoic acid or a derivative thereof. The composition is stable when preserved with the naturally derived preservative and when at a pH that is above the natural pH of skin to as high as 7.25.

Provided is a cleansing foam cosmetic composition comprising amino acid-based surfactants, and more particularly to a cleansing foam cosmetic composition in which a nonionic or amphiprotic surfactant is not used, and which comprises amino acid-based surfactants consisting of only sodium lauroyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl glycinate, and potassium cocoyl glycinate.

A cosmetic composition for topical skin application and for use in reducing the appearance of scars comprising a combination of arginine and glutamine. The composition comprises L-Arginine in combination for L-Glutamine and further comprises bromelain, tetrahydrobisdemethoxydiferuloylmethane and tetrahydrocurcumin. Additional ingredients include various antioxidants, moisturizers, skin protectants, and vitamins together to promote the healing of affected skin while reducing visible scarring.

A process for decolorizing keratinous material which has been colored by the application of at least one pigment is disclosed. The process comprises applying to a dyed keratin material a decolorizing agent comprising at least one amphoteric and/or zwitterionic surfactant and a pH of from about 1.0 to about 4.3. The process further comprises rinsing the decolorizing agent from the keratin material after a contact time. A method for dyeing and later decolorizing human hair is also disclosed, and comprises applying a colorant to the hair to give a dyed hair, the colorant comprising at least one amino-functionalized silicone polymer and at least one pigment; applying to the dyed hair the decolorizing agent to give a decolorized hair; and rinsing the decolorizing agent from the decolorized hair. A multi-component packaging unit comprising a first container comprising the colorant and a second container comprising the decolorizing agent is also disclosed.

The present specification discloses compositions comprising one or more encapsulates comprising one or more agents and methods and uses for the disclosed agents. A composition disclosed herein can be incorporated into 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.

According to the present invention, a composition that has high safety, can be continuously used for a long period, promotes production of VEGF and FGF7 involved in hair growth, and affords good prophylactic or improving effect on thinning hair or hair loss can be provided. The present invention relates to a composition for promoting hair thickening, containing one or more members selected from the group consisting of citrulline, tryptophan, glutamine, and ornithine, a composition for maintaining the anagen phase in the hair cycle and a composition for promoting VEGF production, each containing one or more members selected from the group consisting of citrulline, tryptophan, and glutamine, a composition for promoting transition from the telogen phase to the anagen phase in the hair cycle and a composition for promoting FGF7 production, each containing ornithine, and a composition for promoting normalization of the hair cycle, containing one or more members selected from the group consisting of citrulline, tryptophan, glutamine, and ornithine.

Oral care compositions comprising an amino acid and stannous ion source, especially in the absence of a soluble zinc ion source, are provided for promoting Gum Health of a user.

A rheofluidifying surfactant composition structured into planar lamellar phases includes: a) at least one anionic surfactant and b) at least one compound selected from among amphoteric surfactants and non-ionic surfactants, in which the total active material of said surfactants is between 35 and 60% by weight relative to the total weight of said composition, in which the ratio of anionic surfactant is between 0.3 and 0.9, the ratio of amphoteric surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7 and the ratio of non-ionic surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7, said ratio being the ratio between the weight percentage of active material of said surfactant in said composition and the weight percentage of total active material of said surfactants in said composition, the pH of the composition being between 4 and 8, said at least one anionic surfactant being selected from the group comprising alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, sulfonates, derivatives of phosphoric acid, phosphates and alkyl phosphates, isethionates, taurates, sulfoccinates, alkyl sulfoacetates, anionic derivatives of proteins of plant origin, amino acids and amino acid derivatives, polypeptides, carboxylic acids and the salts of same, salts of fatty acids from saponification, lactic acid derivatives and alkyl polyglucoside derivatives, and said composition being free of sodium chloride other than that which may be provided by the surfactants.
