  • Patent number: 11766391
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are hair care compositions and methods of using same. The compositions may be substantially anhydrous, and optically clear. The hair care compositions, when mixed with water, create an exothermic reaction, for example, when mixed with hair that has been pre-wetted. The mixture with water further causes the composition to become opaque, much like a traditional conditioning agent. The compositions may be left on the wetted hair and subjected to heat for enhanced treatment of the hair.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6030607
    Abstract: A topical solution that looks and performs like an oil, but with the totally non-oil-like characteristic of being completely water soluble. The present invention utilizes materials that have the oil-like look and feel, i.e. polyoxyethylene ethers, but define an end product which is water soluble.

  • Patent number: 5770183
    Abstract: A waterproof water-in-oil emulsion, wherein the aqueous phase consists predominately of deionized water and the oil phase includes sunscreen active ingredients, silicone emulsifiers, oil soluble solubilizers and skin conditioning agents. The emulsion provides sun protection higher than SPF 30 and is characterized in that the mean particle size of the oil phase ingredients is 2.0 Microns (.mu.). The particles of the emulsion are uniformly distributed and substantially of the same size to reduce gaps between particles thus reducing the amount of skin left exposed to ultra violet radiation. A method of manufacturing the emulsion is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 5392876
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and device for preventing theft of an automotive vehicle, in particular, one which engages the brakes to prevent the vehicle from moving. An anti-theft device is coupled to the brake system, and, upon leaving the vehicle, manually actuating a concealed switch to enable the anti-theft device. The device is designed so that it is not operable until the brakes are operated by the thief. Once the brake system has been used by the thief after actuating the switch, engagement of the brake system is maintained, preventing movement of the vehicle.
