Abstract: Artificial intelligence based systems and methods for analyzing user-specific data to predict user-specific skin or hair conditions. User-specific data of a user is received at a scalp and hair analysis application and defines a scalp or hair region of the user including last wash data of the user and at least one other factor of the user. An artificial intelligence based learning model, trained with training data regarding scalp and hair regions of respective individuals, analyzes the user-specific data to generate a scalp or hair prediction value corresponding to the scalp or hair region of the user. The application generates, based on the scalp or hair prediction value, a user-specific treatment designed to address at least one feature based on the scalp or hair prediction value of the user's scalp or hair region.

Abstract: Artificial intelligence-based systems and methods are described for interacting with individuals via a web environment. A provisioning server is configured to receive a request from a web browser, executing on a client device, for a predefined imaging code stored in a memory of the provisioning server. The provisioning server responds to the request by transferring the predefined imaging code to the web browser. The predefined imaging code is configured to be executed by the client device to load, into a memory of the client device, one or more images of an individual; and determine, based on image analysis of the one or more images of the individual, one or more personal attributes of the individual.

The provisioning server responds to the request by transferring the predefined imaging code to the web browser. The predefined imaging code is configured to be executed by the client device to render an interactive graphical user interface (GUI) within the web browser on a display of the client device; load, into a memory of the client device, one or more images of an individual; determine, based on image analysis of the one or more images of the individual, one or more personal attributes of the individual; and, render the one or more personal attributes of the individual within the interactive GUI.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method to measure and/or adjust combing resistance of fibers by using a brush, wherein the brush comprises: a brush handle; a brush head connecting to the brush handle and comprising a substrate and bristles which are mounted on the substrate, wherein a certain number of the bristles are movable; an activation means which moves the movable bristles from their original positions to different positions; wherein the brush further comprises at least one of the following: a cover for the brush head which is movable between an open position and a closed position, which internal surface can closely face to the tips of the bristles in its closed position, and which has a gap between the substrate and its side ends in its closed position; an indication to match at least one position of the movable bristles to at least one fiber type and/or at least one treatment type; or the combination thereof.

Abstract: Personal cleansing compositions, especially body washes and shampoos, are disclosed comprising surfactant, fragrance oil and less than about 7.5% non-fragrance oil, wherein the surfactant and fragrance oil form: a) a first micellar phase; and b) a second phase which rotates polarized light.

Abstract: Confectionery compositions comprising a candy base having improved stability are provided. Said candy base comprises one or more sugar bases, at least one edible organic acid, one or more xanthine derivatives and less than 1.9% of fructose by weight of said candy base. The confectionery compositions herein provide the stimulant effect of xanthine derivative and the energy of sugar bases without the negative aspects of opaqueness, stickiness and flavour modification.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a substantially dry, disposable personal care article comprising: a) a water insoluble substrate comprising: 1) a non-scouring, lofty, low-density batting layer comprising synthetic fibers; and 2) a non-lofty, fluid-permeable nonwoven layer which is disposed adjacent to said batting layer; and b) a cleansing component disposed adjacent to said batting layer, wherein said component comprises from about 10% to about 1000%, by weight of the water insoluble substrate, of a lathering surfactant. The present invention further relates to a substantially dry, disposable personal care article suitable for conditioning wherein the above-described article comprises a therapeutic benefit component, disposed adjacent to said water insoluble substrate, wherein said component comprises from about 10% to about 1000%, by weight of the water insoluble substrate, of a therapeutic benefit component in addition to or in lieu of the cleansing component.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a substantially dry, disposable personal care article containing a substantially dry, disposable, multilayered personal care article suitable for cleansing, the article contains a water insoluble substrate containing a batting layer comprising a composite material; a nonwoven layer which is disposed adjacent to said batting layer; and a cleansing component disposed adjacent to said water insoluble substrate, wherein said component contains from about 10% to about 1000%, by weight of the water insoluble substrate, of a lathering surfactant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a substantially dry, disposable personal care article that contain a water insoluble substrate; a lathering cleansing composition contacted with said substrate wherein said composition comprising; a safe and effective amount of one or more mild crystalline surfactants; water; and a safe and effective amount of one or more polar solvents other than water; wherein said composition exhibits hotmelt behavior. These substantially dry, disposable personal care article contacted with the hotmelt compositions have been found to be useful for cleansing and conditioning skin and hair due to their ability to achieve a sustained lather and to deposit therapeutic benefit agents.
