Abstract: A topical mixture that produces nitric oxide and a method for using the topical mixture to increase the vasodilation of a bloodstream via transdermal absorption of the nitric oxide. The nitric oxide can then affect subcutaneous tissues. The systemic vasodilation of a mammal may be increased via a topical application of an appropriate nitric oxide producing substance.

Abstract: The invention relates to a Truffle extract for skin cosmetic use, comprising compounds having a molecular weight of less than 5 kDa. The invention also relates to a cosmetic method of treatment designed to reduce and/or correct the signs of aging and photo-aging of the skin and keratinous appendages, and to protect the skin against aggressions due to ultraviolet radiation.

Abstract: A composition of oily, pungent and odoriferous substances and a process for preparation thereof are described, in particular an extended and sustained release of a stable, free flowing, solid composition of one or more of substances such as capsicum, black pepper, ginger, mustard, cinnamon, garlic, onion, paprika, turmeric and the like, extracts thereof, and/or components thereof, and a process for preparation thereof are described. For example, compositions comprise a substance such as capsicum containing capsaicinoid components, which include for example capsaicin, dihydro-capsaicin, and/or nor-dihydro-capsaicin.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a multi-phase liquid agent for the non-chemical smoothing and de-curling of keratin fibers, in particular human hair, which has an aqueous-alcoholic phase and a non-aqueous phase existing separately therefrom and which can be applied as a spray, and a method for non-chemical smoothing or de-curling of keratin fibers using the agent.
