[0015] The topical lotion composition the also may comprise one or both of cactus gel and bergamot oil. For example, the topical lotion composition may comprise, on a volume/volume basis, one or both of cactus gel at 2.50 to 7.50% and bergamot oil at 0.50 to 1.25%, with the base comprising 69.25 to 77.25% of the topical lotion composition.

[0016] The topical lotion composition is devoid of mineral oil and paraffins. The base comprises one or more of water, sunflower seed oil, glycerin, coconut oil, safflower seed oil, soybean oil, canola oil, grape seed oil, glycerin, glyceryl stearate, glyceryl stearate citrate, glyceryl caprylate, ethylhexylglycerin, polyglyceryl-3 polyricinoleate, betaine, shea butter, tapioca starch, palmitic acid, isopropyl palmitate, lactic acid, citric acid, sorbitan olivate, xanthan gum, wool wax, beeswax, hydrolyzed beeswax, decyl cocoate, nonfat dry milk, stearic acid, sucrose stearate, sodium stearoyl lactylate, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, magnesium aluminum silicate, dimethicone, ethanol, cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, polysorbate 20, carbomer, p-anisic acid, sodium hydroxide, titanium dioxide, and fragrance.

[0017] The present invention anticipates a method of preparing a topical lotion composition for use in promoting hair growth, as shown in FIG. 1. The preparation method 10 comprises a first step 12 providing a vessel. A second step 14 of the preparation method 10 is adding a base to the vessel. A third step 16 of the preparation method 10 is adding to the vessel, with mixing, honey, aloe vera gel, rosemary oil, coconut oil, olive oil, rose oil, almond oil, and vitamin E oil. A fourth step 18 of the preparation method 10 is mixing the contents of the vessel until substantially homogenous.

[0018] For example, 500 mL of a base, such as, but not limited to, Johnson's® baby lotion, may be charged to the vessel. With stirring, 30 mL of honey, 45 mL of aloe vera gel, 10 mL of rosemary oil, 10 mL of coconut oil, 5 mL of olive oil, 5 mL of rose oil, 15 mL of almond oil, and 2.5 mL of vitamin E oil are added to the base.

[0019] The topical lotion composition enables a method of promoting hair growth 20, as shown in FIG. 2. The hair growth method 20 comprises a first step 22 of providing a topical lotion composition according to the specification above. A second step 24 of the hair growth method 20 is applying the topical lotion composition to a scalp of a user. A third step 26 of the hair growth method 20 is allowing the topical lotion composition to remain in contact with the scalp for up to 12 hours. For example, the topical lotion composition may be allowed to remain in contact with the scalp between 1 and 8 hours.

[0020] Although the foregoing invention has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity and understanding, it will be readily apparent, in light of the teachings of this invention, that certain changes and modifications may be made thereto without departing from the spirit or scope of the following claims.

[0021] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the elements is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
