the second seal to decrease the volume of the compartment in which the composition is housed each time
the container is opened by removing the cap.
A valve opens the channel in response to the
decrease in volume in the compartment when the cap is removed so as to permit composition to flow

Patent No.: US7611726B2 Issued: 03/Nov/2009Title: Shine-enhancing
film formers
Applicant/Assignee: L'OREAL
Application No.:
10/891549 Filing Date: 15/Jul/2004
Abstract:
Shine-enhancing film
formers are used to formulate cosmetic compositions in which shine is a desired property. Shine-
enhancing film formers may be used alone for a high degree of shine or in combination with other film
formers to modify the degree of shine. Using shine-enhancing film formers in cosmetics compositions
often accomplishes increased shine properties while retaining other properties favorable to cosmetic
compositions such as transfer-resistance.

COSMETIC COMPOSITION
Applicant/Assignee: ELC MANAGEMENT, LLC
Application No.:
11/425446 Filing Date: 21/Jun/2006
Abstract:
The present
invention relates to encapsulated cosmetic compositions that are topically applied. The compositions
contain at least one frangible capsule that has a seamless shell of a thermo-softening material. The
shell is solid at about room temperature and melts upon application to the skin. The shell holds a core
cosmetic that is added to a clear gel base. Thus, the color of the capsule is visible and multiple
colored capsules can be added to the base for a custom colored composition.

glycoside derivatives and compositions containing the derivatives
Applicant/Assignee:
SUNTORY HOLDINGS LIMITED
Application No.: 10/519979 Filing Date:
22/Aug/2005
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel flavone C-glycoside
derivatives or salts thereof, especially those showing an anti-allergic effect, and compositions
containing them. Recently, cases of allergic diseases, especially pollenosis and atopic dermatitis have
increased to such a degree that they have become a social problem. Flavones and their glycosides have
been reported to have the effect of inhibiting histamine release from mast cells or an immunosuppressive
effect and expected for application as allergy therapies. However, most flavones exhibit their effects
only at high doses, so that effective compounds at lower doses are highly desired. The present invention
provides novel components capable of treating allergic diseases at low doses and compositions containing
them.
