Cosmetic compositions with enhanced slip and/or break strength are described, said compositions comprising ultra-stable moringa oils, or its derivatives. These compositions may be used in cosmetic applications such as creams, lotions, and liquid foundations; massage oils; pressed products, such as eye shadow, blush, and powder; molded products, such as lipstick, lip balm, foundation, blush, eye liner, eye shadow, mascara; and hair care products, such as leave in conditioners, relaxers, hair dyes and other applications. The oils derived from the moringa plant should have a percent methylene interrupted unsaturation of less than 1%. The compositions may have at least one supplemental additive, such as malic acid, kojic acid, or ascorbic acid, present in an amount of from 0. 01 to 2% or more by weight of the composition and the tocopherol is present in an amount of from 0. 01 to 5% by weight of the composition.

The invention provides a process for reducing odor, bitterness, astringency and pungency of a Simmondsins extract by dissolving the Simmondsins extract in a solvent if the Simmondsins extract is in a dry form, reacting the liquid Simmondsins extract with a carbonaceous adsorbent, such as activated carbon, to obtain a mixture, separating the adsorbent from the mixture to obtain a purified liquid extract, and drying the purified liquid extract. The invention also provides a process for preparing a Simmondsins extract having reduced odor, bitterness, astringency and pungency by eluting plant material containing Simmondsins with a polar organic solvent to dissolve the Simmondsins, separating the eluent containing the Simmondsins and the solvent from the plant material to obtain a dilute crude Simmondsins extract, concentrating the crude Simmondsins extract, removing any oils from the concentrated crude Simmondsins extract, and then carrying out the steps for reducing odor, bitterness, astringency and pungency of extract as above. The invention also provides a feed containing a Simmondsins extract having reduced odor, bitterness, astringency and pungency.

A product for treating and conditioning cuticles using a semi-solid emollient and a complimentary delivery system is disclosed. The emollient could be any semi-solid emollient suitable for cuticle treatment, the emollient preferably including naturally derived botanicals that impart a “dry” feel, and a soothing and softening effect on the cuticle area. Isopropyl jojoba (IPJ) and hydrogenated isopropyl jojoba (HIPJ) esters, hydrogenated jojoba alcohol, jojoba esters, hydrogenated jojoba oil, ethyl macadamiate and other esters, waxes and oils may be used in the emollient to contribute to the “dry” feel and serve as carriers for active materials used to treat cuticles. The semi-solid emollient is retained in a container, preferably in stick form, and is extendable from and preferably retractable into the container, which can be carried by an individual. The container is designed to enable a user to apply the emollient to a cuticle area without touching the emollient with his/her fingertips, thereby preventing application or migration of the emollient to unselected areas.

Cosmetic particle compositions are provided which are adapted to form hard cosmetic particles that transform to soft cosmetic particles after their incorporation into topical formulations, particularly surfactant-based topical formulations. The composition includes one or more partially or fully hydrogenated triglyceride oils, at least 50% of which have at least 15% by weight fatty acid moieties with carbon chain lengths of Cor higher. Additives may be disposed in or on the hard cosmetic particles and delivered when the cosmetic particles are broken proximate a target such as the skin, hair or nails of a mammalian subject or another target. The transformable hard cosmetic particles permit the storage and shipment of intact cosmetic particles yet transform in situ to achieve the benefits of soft cosmetic particles.

Disclosed is a “Pet Food Formulation System” (PFFS) that is a “treatment system” that results in loss of weight by pets consuming ad libitum, or in controlled rations, a reduced calorie pet food. The PFFS will comprise the use of jojoba meal (JM) in the form of whole fat jojoba seed flour (WFJSF), expeller pressed jojoba seed meal, and/or solvent extracted jojoba seed meal, in combination with simmondsin concentrate (SC) and jojoba oil (JO), such combinations designed to both reduce the quantity of pet food consumed by the pet and at the same time reduce the level of calories contributed by the pet food that is consumed. Simmondsin concentrate and the natural simmondsin content of jojoba meal contained in a pet food for consumption by either dogs or cats serves to reduce pet appetite and therefore the amount of food that the pet is inclined to consume. The reduced food consumption is not due to reduced acceptability of the food by the pet, rather through the mechanism of reduced appetite produced by the simmondsin in the pet food.

Materials with high levels of unsaponifiable matter, such as extracts from plants, result in Hydrolysates with unique properties. It has been found that the application of a hydrolysis process to materials, particularly materials with a high level of unsaponifiables (e.g., at least 6% by total weight of the material) produces a product with properties significantly different from those products resulting from the conventional saponification of materials with less than 6% by weight of unsaponifiables. The resulting Hydrolysates from the practice of the present invention are substantive, resisting both physical and aqueous-based removal from skin and hair, exhibit a very unique surfactant property, and are not foaming agents with water. Addition of extra alkali metal hydroxides to these Hydrolysates according to the present invention may thus be used to neutralized acidic gelling agents and thereby providing a gel with enhanced the performance for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Compositions may include long-chain organic molecules obtained from natural oils, particularly plant, bean, seed and nut oils, and their derivatives can be provided with increased oxygen stability by their combination with mixtures of particular classes of antioxidants, particularly combinations of at least one synthetic free-radical terminating antioxidant. The stabilization combination is particularly effective in combination with long-chain oils having less than 5% methylene interrupted unsaturation and free-radical terminating antioxidants present in an amount of from 0. 001 to 5% or more by weight of the long-chain oils. The long-chain oil may include a natural oil or wax, such as Macadamia oil and its derivatives, Moringa oil and its derivatives, Babassu oil and its derivatives, Meadowfoam oil and its derivatives, and High Oleic Sunflower oil.

A method for an oxidatively stable cuphea derived emollient composition having a relatively high capric acid concentration is disclosed. Various features and specifications may be controlled, adapted or otherwise modified to improve the application and utilization of cuphea oil and cuphea oil derivatives as emollients. The present invention generally provides cosmetic, personal care and other topical preparation ingredients having improved oxidative stability as well as other desirable characteristics as compared with naturally derived emollient and/or synthetic emollient alternatives.
