Systems and approaches for manufacturing containers for cosmetic substances include providing a container body having a first end and a second end and defining a container cavity that receives a cosmetic substance, and, during a two-shot molding process, forming 1) a container neck having a first end, a second end, and a neck wall and defining a neck cavity; and 2) a wiper integrally formed with at least a portion of the neck wall. The wiper includes a protrusion extending into the neck cavity. The container neck is operably coupled with the first end of the container body.
Powdery cosmetic compositions comprise a particulate phase and a binder sub-composition. The binder sub-composition consists of a viscous emollient, a non-viscous emollient, a triglyceride ester fatty acid, and one or more specific waxes. The binder sub-composition is particularly suited for use in stabilizing pearlescent and metallic pigments. The compositions are stable, have a creamy texture, and are suitable for long-wear, while providing true color, excellent color payoff and skin conditioning.
Provided is an encapsulation composition comprising liquid crystal particles, wherein each of the liquid crystal particles comprises a core and a liquid crystal shell, wherein the core contains an active ingredient and liquid crystal shell contains a fatty alcohol, a first surfactant, and an optional lipid. It further provides a cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition comprising the encapsulation composition. The method for preparing the encapsulation composition is also provided.
The methods described herein provide self-assembling macromolecular networks within the human skin. The methods provide instant and accumulation-based physical properties within the skin, causing cosmetic benefits including, bulking/plumping, filling, strengthening, smoothing, firming, and lifting, as well as enhancing the optical properties, radiance and other cosmetic appearance characteristics of the skin. The disclosure also provides a method of re-structuring the skin without cellular biogenesis by effecting macrostructures within the skin. The method comprising effectuating self-assembly within the skin layers by topically applying a composition comprising at least one self-assembly material to form functional macrostructures within the skin and effectuating self-assembly of the at least one self-assembly material in vivo while substantially preventing self-assembly prior to the topical application or treatment.
Approaches for manufacturing an applicator and corresponding applicators for applying a cosmetic substance are provided that may include forming an applicator body, an applicator head, and a detachable shield. The applicator body includes a first end and a second end. The applicator head is operably coupled with the first end of the applicator body and includes an outer surface. The detachable shield being removably coupled with the applicator head. The outer surface of the applicator head is segmented into an exposed portion outside of the detachable shield and a shielded portion within the detachable shield. The approach further includes applying a surface treatment to the outer surface of the applicator head and removing the detachable shield from the applicator head. Upon removing the detachable shield, the shielded portion is free of the surface treatment.
Provided herein is a composition of reducing and/or inhibiting protein carbonylation including polylysines. And also provided herein is a method of protecting skin from carbonylation stimuli by using a composition including polylysines, and a non-therapy cosmetic method for caring for keratin materials, especially the skin, by applying the composition of reducing and/or inhibiting protein carbonylation including polylysines.

A cosmetic product container may include a cap body having first and second ends and defining a cap cavity, a cap liner operably coupled with the cap body and being movable along a length thereof, a resilient member operably coupled with one of the cap body or the cap liner, and a coupling protrusion operably coupled with the other of the cap line or the cap body. In response to moving the cap body relative to the cap liner in a first direction, the resilient member slidably engages the coupling protrusion and moves to an energized position. Continued movement of the cap body relative to the cap liner causes the resilient member to urge the cap body in the first direction.
