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: The present invention relates a hair treatment preparation which, in conjunction with after-applied heat, such as normal blow-drying, adds strength to, and repairs damage to, bleached and permed hair and enhances moisture retention. The treatment preparation consists of an aqueous blend of a hydrolyzed wheat protein and wheat oligosaccharides, wheat amino acids, and panthenol, as its essential active ingredients, with or without selected additives such as panthenyl ethyl ether, fragrance, preservatives, and the like. The invention also discloses a method of strengthening and repairing damaged hair comprising applying the hair treatment hair preparation of the present invention onto damaged hair, and thereafter drying the treated hair. Certain aspects of hair strength, especially for previously permed hair, appear to be increased when the thus treated hair is blow-dried.

Abstract: A hair spray composition exhibiting high curl retention, fast drying time, high rinse-out with low flaking and high shine characteristics comprised of fixative resins, silicone plasticizers and neutralizers in a crystal clear formulation which meets or exceeds the currently mandated alcohol requirements in a hand pump spray application.
