  • Patent number: 5436010
    Abstract: This invention discloses the phenomenon of penetrating the hair shaft with a hydroxysphere and glycerin carrier system ("HS-GL"), manufactured using materials that are Generally Regarded As Safe ("GRAS"). The penetration of the hair shaft by the HS-GL carrier system provides a means of transporting materials such as hair care agents, moisturizers, coloring agents, therapeutics, hair setting agents, and agents used for hair care cosmetic applications, through the cuticle and the cortex to the medulla region in the center of the hair shaft. The resulting benefits that can be achieved using this HS-GL carrier system alone, are greater hair manageability, greater ease of combing, higher sheen, better hair set, longer-lasting hair curl, and a restoration of softness in dry hair and also in hair which is brittle and damaged by split ends. Penetration of the hair shaft by the HS-GL carrier system is also reversible with water.

  • Patent number: 5173303
    Abstract: This invention discloses the phenomenon of physically sequestering organic soluble material by lamellar envelopment. It is to be distinguished from microdroplets of water insoluble drugs coated with a phospholipid prepared by sonication. Actual reduction to practice in a commercial effort has been with insect repellent. Hence, the disclosure will refer essentially to the dispersing of DEET.
