Abstract: A composition comprising a first peptide selected from tripeptide, tetrapeptide and mixtures thereof; a second peptide selected from pentapeptide, hexapeptide, and mixtures thereof; an extract from the Laminaria genus, and whey protein, and a method for stimulating collagen synthesis in skin cells.
Abstract: A combined bottle and cap assembly has a cap assembly secured to a bottle by snap-fit engagement. The cap assembly has downwardly directed ramps on an underside and bottle has upwardly directed ramps on a top wall. When the cap assembly is rotated relative to the bottle, the downwardly directed ramps cooperatively engage the upwardly directed ramps to lift the cap assembly from the bottle sufficiently to disengage the snap-fit engagement and allow cap assembly to be easily lifted from the bottle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for dispensing false eyelashes. The apparatus includes a dispensable tape, the tape being loaded with false eyelashes, and the eyelashes being delivered to a user's eyelashes by advancing them forward on the tape. The apparatus further includes an upper and lower clamping mechanism, designed to assist the user, by clamping down on dispensed eyelashes, facilitating more accurate application of the false eyelashes.
Abstract: A method of stabilizing riboflavin by affixing the riboflavin to at least one substrate for the riboflavin by covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding, Van der Waals forces, or a combination thereof, to form an optically-activated complex, is provided. When activated by absorption of light in the ultraviolet (UV) to visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum the riboflavin in the complex re-emits light of longer wavelength in the blue-green-yellow region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Abstract: Compositions of the invention comprise 8-oxoguanine glycosylase (OGG1) and SIRT6 activating peptide G-A-G-V-S-A-E-NH2. Compositions of the invention exhibit anti-aging effects by promoting the repair of skin cell DNA and/or by protecting skin cell DNA from UV damage.

Abstract: A mud mask with real leaves is described. The mud mask is made by separating a leaf batch into a first sub-batch, a second sub-batch, and a third sub-batch. The first sub-batch is ground into a fine powder, while the second sub-batch remains as whole leaves and the third sub-batch is chopped into partially chopped leaves. The fine powder and whole leaves are added to hot water for a period of time to form a brewed tea. Thereafter, the partially chopped leaves and mud components are added to the brewed tea to form a mud solution, which is mixed to form the mud product. The mud product is packaged and allowed to marinate, which allows the leaves to begin releasing their nutrients and antioxidants into the mud formula, after which the mud mask includes atypical and unusually high levels of nutrients, antioxidants and caffeine.
Abstract: An integrated carton and liner assembly for consumer products includes a paperboard tray and thermoformed plastic insert. The sidewalls of the assembled carton are four layers thick, interleaved, and secured with snap fitments for exceptional sturdiness. The assembly is easy to assemble without adhesive, and achieves an upscale look. The thermoform liner is held securely in the carton.
