Abstract: An improved hair and scalp treatment composition comprising a hair care product wherein the improvement comprises reducing the comedogenicity thereof by excluding therefrom comedogenic elements having a Fulton scale grade greater than 2.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are topical compositions comprising Centella asiatica extract and mandelic acid, wherein the compositions have a pH of less than 5, and methods of using the compositions to decrease cellular senescence in skin and treat dermatoporosis. Topical compositions comprising Centella asiatica extract and mandelic acid are effective to reduce the number of senescent cells in mammalian dermis, reduce the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), downregulate at least one SASP-associated gene, increase the expression of at least one cell cycle-related gene in dermal fibroblasts, downregulate at least one gene associated with skin inflammation, and increase fibroblast cell turnover.

Abstract: Skin treatment compositions and methods provide a superficial depth skin peel and exfoliation utilizing a combination of four acids, a carrier gel, colorant(s), and a topical oxygen delivery system. The combination of acids, oxygen delivery, gel formulation and colorant(s) aid in the efficacy of the formulations to result in beneficial skin treatment compositions by creating an effective superficial peel without the use of BHA's and only using AHA's having a molecular weight greater than 100. The AHA's used in the present invention are intended to predominately impact the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of skin. The AHA's utilized in the present invention reduce corneocyte adhesion by impacting the ionic bonds in a manner that reduces the cohesion forces. The corneocytes are then more easily shed and replaced by the newer, bright layers underneath. This can give the skin a smoother and less scaly appearance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hair care component and method of manufacture for use in a hair coloring system. In one embodiment of the invention, a hair care component for use in a hair coloring system includes a mixture resulting from blending an aqueous solution, an emulsion, and a cationic water-in-oil liquid dispersion of an alkylene, olefinically unsaturated (alkyl)amide. The emulsion includes a polysiloxane (A)-polyoxyalkylene (B) block copolymer of an (A-B)n-type. The copolymer includes an aminofunctional silicone. The liquid dispersion inverts from the water-in-oil phase to an oil-in-water phase when mixed with the aqueous solution.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the use of botanical extract compositions, which contain ingredients with self-preserving properties for use in cosmetic or dermatological compositions.
