  • Patent number: 12576017
    Abstract: A sunscreen composition includes a sunscreen active, a carrier, and a film former polymer. The sunscreen active may be selected from organic sunscreen actives. The carrier may include an amphiphile monolayer to encapsulate a least a portion of the total amount of the sunscreen active. The film former polymer may include an acrylic film former polymer selected from C1-C30 alkyl (meth)acrylates copolymer. Notably, the sunscreen active may provide enhanced photoprotection at relatively low concentration levels when present with the carrier, including the amphiphile monolayer, and the acrylic film former polymer.

  • Patent number: 12546710
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, a computing device, a computer readable storage medium, and a method to detect a personal care composition. In embodiments, an image capture device may capture values for infrared (IR) radiation from an interaction between light and an ingredient of the personal care composition. In embodiments, a processor may detect the presence of the personal care composition based on the valued for the IR radiation captured by the image capture device. Embodiments further relate to a personal care composition including one or more ingredients to be used as a marker for the personal care composition, selected for an ability to exhibit diffuse reflection or absorbance of IR radiation.

  • Publication number: 20250367107
    Abstract: A sunscreen composition including at least one organic sunscreen active and Pongamia pinnata Seed Extract. The at least one organic sunscreen active may be selected from at least one organic sunscreen active having no substantial photoprotection capabilities within the UVA-1 region. The at least one organic sunscreen active may be selected from a salicylate. For example, a salicylate may be present in an amount from about 3.0 wt. % to about 20.0 wt. % and the Pongamia pinnata Seed Extract may be present in an amount from 0.26 wt. % to 4.9 wt. %, based on the total weight of the sunscreen composition. Thus, for example, the weight ratio of homosalate to the Pongamia pinnata Seed Extract may be from about 9:1 to about 18:1 and the weight ratio of octisalate to the Pongamia pinnata Seed Extract may be from about 4.0:1 to about 9:1.

  • Publication number: 20250000784
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to personal care compositions including Camellia sinensis (green tea) extract present in an effective amount to provide enhanced antioxidant power. The Camellia sinensis (green tea) extract may be in crystalline dosage form. The Camellia sinensis (green tea) extract may be initially dispersed in an aqueous solvent to provide an aqueous dosage form. The Camellia sinensis (green tea) extract may be initially dispersed in a non-aqueous anhydrous solvent to provide a non-aqueous dosage form. The personal care composition may further include a sunscreen filter. The personal care composition may further include a vitamin or a derivative thereof.

  • Patent number: 12175837
    Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, a physical game element such as a wagering chip or a playing card may be utilized to implement a promotion scheme on an electronic game table (e.g., using RFID or optical imaging technology). During a game it may be determined whether the element is associated with special functionality (e.g., entitles the player to a payout multiplier, special payout table, bonus prize or other benefit). The special functionality may have been previously associated with the element or associated with the element during the game (e.g., dynamically and/or randomly). In accordance with some embodiments a player is not able to readily discern the special functionality by a physical inspection of the physical game element and is only notified of the special functionality once the physical game element is used in a qualifying action (e.g., during a wager at an electronic game table).

  • Publication number: 20230410768
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a device housing and one or more displays presenting one or more user actuation targets defining one or more virtual buttons in a predefined arrangement relative to a first end of the device housing. One or more sensors detect a condition of the electronic device, such as an approaching object, change in the direction of gravity, or an object tapping or pushing the electronic device. One or more processors cause, in response to the one or more sensors detecting the condition, the one or more displays to present the one or more user actuation targets defining the one or more virtual buttons in another predefined arrangement that is different from the predefined arrangement.
