  • Publication number: 20230248637
    Abstract: An oil-based composition for use in a rinse off or leave on hair product for protecting hair cuticles, the composition including a triglyceride carrier, squalene, a coconut oil-based alkane, melon seed oil, argan seed oil, and argan seed oil unsaponifiables. Using 0.001% to 25% of the composition in a rinse off/leave on product provides many improvements in the condition of hair, such as improving the hair moisture content; hair shine; reduction in flyaways; reduction in inter fiber friction; improved curl retention; improved hair smoothness; fill in/correction of hair cuticle defects; improved appearance of hair: increased hair break strength; and/or hair elasticity. The use of the 0.001%-25% of the composition can also prevent: the loss of hair moisture; the formation of split ends; the formation of cuticle gaps and voids; the loss of hair tensile strength; the loss of hair elasticity; hair breakage; and/or increase inter fiber friction.

  • Patent number: 9064424
    Abstract: An audiovisual recording of a user reading a book aloud is generated for playback with a virtual book. A book reading user interface presents a virtual book concurrently with a current image of the user. The virtual book may be presented based at least in part on an aspect ratio of the virtual book. As the user reads the virtual book aloud, an audiovisual recording of the user is generated. In addition, synchronization information is recorded that enables the audiovisual recording to be synchronized with the presentation of pages of the virtual book during playback. The generated audiovisual recording is stored in a database and may be played back to a recipient on demand.
