Abstract: An intelligent beauty product packaging system includes a container that contains a beauty product and that has a sensor to detect beauty product usage, a processor, and a memory that stores non-transitory computer-readable instructions. The non-transitory computer-readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive beauty product usage information from the sensor; store the beauty product usage information in the memory; analyze the beauty product usage information; and generate a user communication based on the analysis of the beauty product usage information.

Abstract: Inhibiting radical formation or quenching of radicals may aid in limiting damage to bodily structures resulting from exposure to these reactive species. Surprisingly, hydroxycinnamic acids, such as ferulic acid, may enhance the performance of polyphenols in inhibiting radical formation or quenching of radicals. Hydroxychromanes, such as copherol, may further improve the inhibition or quenching of radicals when combined with polyphenols and hydroxycinnamic acids. Cosmetic compositions having radical-mitigating properties may comprise at least one polyphenol, at least one hydroxychromane bearing at least one methyl group, and at least one hydroxycinnamic acid. The at least one polyphenol, the at least one hydroxychromane, and the at least one hydroxycinnamic acid may be present at or above a minimum concentration at which the synergistic interaction is first observable.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods and systems are provided. Such systems and methods include inputting at least a portion of received user data indicative of at least a plurality of unique face and/or skin characteristics into a trained artificial intelligence module. The trained artificial intelligence module is trained using historical data inputs that are associated with known face and/or skin characteristics. Execution of the trained artificial intelligence module may identify the plurality of unique face and/or skin characteristics from the user data and cosmetic and/or skincare products contained in a database. At least one personalized recommendation may then be generated based on the plurality of unique face and/or skin characteristics identified by the trained artificial intelligence module. The at least one personalized recommendation may be for one of the cosmetic and/or skincare products contained in the database and include associated usage guidelines.

Abstract: A hair management system includes a flexible frame and an elastic cover extending over the flexible frame. A plurality of micro-suction pads are arranged over an interior of the hair management system and are configured to draw loose hairs away from a head of a user and into the plurality of micro-suction pads. A vacuum source and a collection container are in communication with the plurality of micro-suction pads and the collection container is configured to collect the loose hairs drawn into the plurality of micro-suction pads. A power source is coupled to the vacuum source and is configured to power the vacuum source.

Abstract: Via a virtual appearance controller system, a person can define how depictions or virtual appearances of the person are to be controlled in images that are initially captured and subsequently output by image-capturing devices. The person may define various conditions under which various virtual appearance features and/or aspects of the person are to be utilized in such images, and the system may transmit an indication of a selected set of controlling requirements for virtual appearances of the person based on a detected condition. An image-capturing device may receive the set of controlling requirements for the virtual appearances of the person, and may automatically apply the requirements to initially-captured images so that virtual appearances of the person in (any) images that are based on the initially-captured images and provided at a display, transmitted via a communication interface, and/or otherwise output from the image-capturing device are in accordance with the requirements.

Abstract: Methods for improving the skin night-time renewal process, for protecting the skin from free radicals associated with blue light exposure, and for increasing the expression of the proteins Angel2 and Timeless include topically applying to the skin a cosmetic composition that has an active ingredient that include an aqueous extract of lavender aerial parts (Lavandula angustifolia).

Abstract: A cosmetic product may include an outer housing having a rim forming an opening and including an interior cavity, a container coupling member operably coupled with the rim of the outer housing, and a removable container the container including an outer surface and a container cavity adapted to retain a cosmetic substance. The container coupling member includes a ring member defining an interior surface. The removable container may be insertable into the interior cavity of the outer housing such that the interior surface of the ring member frictionally engages the outer surface of the removable container to retain the removable container therewithin.
