Various embodiments disclosed relate to water-based nail-treatment compositions including a first film-forming copolymer that is a copolymer of a (C.sub.1-C.sub.5)alkyl ester of methacrylic acid, of a (C.sub.1-C.sub.5)alkyl ester of acrylic acid, or a combination thereof, and of methacrylic acid. The nail-treatment compositions also include a second film-forming copolymer that is a copolymer of isophorone diisocyanate, a poly((C.sub.2-C.sub.3)alkylene oxide), and 2,2-bis(methylol)propionic acid. Methods of using the nail-treatment compositions and cured products of the same are also provided. A cured product of the nail-treatment composition can be monolithically peelable from the nail.

The present invention is a cosmetic containing a silicone resin whose constitutional units consist of general formulae (A) (R.sup.1.sub.3SiO.sub.1/2)a, (B) (R.sup.2.sub.2SiO.sub.2/2)b, (C) (R.sup.3SiO.sub.3/2) c, and (D) (SiO.sub.4/2) d, where R.sup.1, R.sup.2, and R.sup.3 each independently represent a group selected from an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, and a fluorine-substituted alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, “a” has a value of 0.2 to 0.5, “b” has a value of 0.0 to 0.1, “c” has a value of 0.2 to 0.6, “d” has a value of 0.2 to 0.5, a+b+c+d has a value of 1.0, a/(c+d) has a value of 0.3 to 0.9, and c/d has a value of 0.4 to 3.0, the silicone resin having a weight-average molecular weight of more than 20000 and 100000 or less. An object of the present invention is to provide accordingly a cosmetic that has no stickiness upon application, has excellent cosmetic durability, and can prevent adhesion to clothes or the like (secondary adhesion).

The invention relates to a method of customizing a nail-biting and/or finger sucking treatment solution, and a kit for providing a nail-biting and finger sucking treatment that is customizable for a wide range of afflicted users seeking to break a persistent nail-biting and/or finger sucking habit. In exemplary embodiments, the composition kit includes two separate containers, a first container having a nail growth-promoting, waterproofing composition that may be applied directly on a user's nails; and a second container may include an additive for customizing a bitterness factor of the first composition. Typically, the first container includes an applicator such as a brush. To facilitate adding the additive in a manner that is easily customizable, the second container may include a dropper for adding small doses of the additive composition to the first composition. The customizable kit allows the user to safely adjust the bitterness so that the treatment remains effective.

The invention relates to a nail varnish composition comprising: a) an embossed effect pigment comprising a metallic substrate in platelet form with embossed structure having a periodic pattern with diffractive elements, said substrate having been produced by PVD methods, and optionally at least one coating applied to the substrate, wherein the substrate has an elemental metal content of 80% to 100% by weight, based on the substrate, and wherein the effect pigment has been treated with a leafing additive for surface modification, b) at least one hydrocarbon resin as binder, c) at least one solvent or solvent mixture and d) optionally further auxiliaries. The invention further relates to a process for producing the nail varnish composition.
