Abstract: This invention illustrates a composition which has a high antioxidant power in cosmetic products. The composition includes a combination of two critical ingredients, originating from two natural superfood products: olive and kale. This current technology utilizes the sprout of kale, instead of the whole plant, as one ingredient. In the perspective of olive extract, it is either in the form of a concentrated liquid syrup of olive tree and leaf, which is enriched with natural polyphenols, especially with high content of hydroxytyrosol, or in the form of pure liquid hydroxytyrosol. An enhanced antioxidant power is observed when incorporating the kale sprouts together with the olive leaf extract.
Abstract: An oil-based composition for use in a rinse off or leave on hair product for protecting hair cuticles, the composition including a triglyceride carrier, squalene, a coconut oil-based alkane, melon seed oil, argan seed oil, and argan seed oil unsaponifiables. Using 0.001% to 25% of the composition in a rinse off/leave on product provides many improvements in the condition of hair, such as improving the hair moisture content; hair shine; reduction in flyaways; reduction in inter fiber friction; improved curl retention; improved hair smoothness; fill in/correction of hair cuticle defects; improved appearance of hair: increased hair break strength; and/or hair elasticity. The use of the 0.001%-25% of the composition can also prevent: the loss of hair moisture; the formation of split ends; the formation of cuticle gaps and voids; the loss of hair tensile strength; the loss of hair elasticity; hair breakage; and/or increase inter fiber friction.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a combination for obtaining improved stability of a Vitamin A ester and Vitamin C formulation, achieved via including a specific Vitamin A derivative and one of several other Vitamin C derivatives. This combination shows an enhanced stability in varied cosmetic formulations as a function of time and at different environmental conditions.
