Abstract: The present invention provides novel methods for repairing or reducing skin changes as well as systems, regimens, and cosmetic compositions thereof. The invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising electrospun polymer fibers, at least one active ingredient, and at least one cosmetically acceptable carrier is provided, wherein the electrospun fibers are dispersed in the composition. The composition is in form of a solution, suspension, lotion, cream, gel, emulsion, toner, ointment, paste, foam, hydrogel, film-forming product, or facial skin mask. The composition comprises at least one active ingredient and further comprises antioxidants, moisturizers, surfactants, or humectants.

Abstract: Topical delivery systems are described. The topical delivery systems include at least one skin care active and nanocellulose in a cosmetic composition. It has been surprisingly found that the presence of nanocellulose in a cosmetic composition enhances or regulates the penetration of skin care actives. The present application further describes a cosmetic composition comprising a skin care active and nanocellulose and use thereof.

Abstract: A topical composition comprising a Polymer, a high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HWM HA) and/or its salt, a low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LWM HA) and/or its salt, and a polyamino acid and/or its salt; and water and a method for identifying a test polymer that forms a micro-mesh structure when combined with such ingredients.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel methods for repairing or reducing skin changes as well as systems and cosmetic compositions thereof. A method for reducing the appearance of dark circles, puffiness, or sagginess in the periorbital area of a subject's skin, comprising topically applying a composition comprising electrospun fibers to the subject's skin in need thereof is provided. The method further causes firming or tightening of the skin around the periorbital area of the subject. The composition provided herein is substantially free of active ingredients or devoid of active ingredients.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for whitening or brightening skin comprising at least one whitening active contained in association structures.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of using topical or cosmetic compositions containing resveratrol ferulates for skin lightening and anti-aging applications and method of synthesizing resveratrol ferulates.

Abstract: An applicator for applying cosmetic agents into human skin, comprising: (a) a base, (b) a plurality of microneedles fixed to said base and projecting therefrom a distance sufficient to penetrate into the skin, said microneedles being made of a material that is capable of disintegration and dispersion into the skin, and (c) a cosmetic agent carried by said microneedles for delivery by said microneedles into the skin.

Abstract: An applicator for applying cosmetic agents into human skin, comprising: (a) a base, (b) a plurality of dissolvable microneedles fixed to said base and projecting therefrom a distance sufficient to penetrate into the skin, said microneedles being made of a material that is capable of disintegration and dispersion into the skin, (c) a cosmetic agent carried by said microneedles for delivery by said microneedles into the skin, and (d) wherein said dissolvable microneedles are configured as a dissolvable exterior shell and said shell encapsulates one or more cosmetic agents.

Abstract: Compositions for use with a mascara applicator with vibrating applicator head. The frequency, amplitude and geometry of the vibrating head are sufficient to significantly alter the rheological properties of thixotropic and anti-thixotropic mascara compositions, including an effect that persists after the vibration has stopped. The mascara may be manipulated for improved results, greater flexibility in formulation, benefits in manufacture, as well as other benefits.
