Disclosed are hair cosmetic compositions comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one polyurethane latex polymer and at least one silicone-organic polymer compound. Methods of imparting durable styling or shaping benefits to hair and / or of controlling frizziness of hair by applying the hair cosmetic compositions onto hair are also disclosed.

A non-aerosol two-layer separate type hair cosmetic composition containing components (A) and (B) at a mass ratio (A) / (B) of from 0.2 to 10:(A) a silicone with a number-average degree of polymerization of from 300 to 20,000 having a number-average particle diameter of from 0.05 to 20 μm, selected from the group consisting of dimethicone, dimethiconol, and amino-modified silicone and in an amount of from 0.1 to 6 mass %(B) a water-soluble cationic polymer with a weight-average molecular weight of from 50,000 to 1,000,000, selected from the group consisting of polyquaternium-6, polyquaternium-7, polyquaternium-16, and polyquaternium-22,wherein the composition consists of an oil-in-water emulsion layer and an aqueous layer.

Conventional hair cosmetic materials have difficulty in achieving both high improvement effects on damaged hair and excellent sensation upon use. The present invention provides an oil-based hair cosmetic material to realize hair cosmetics having both high improvement effects on damaged hair and excellent sensation upon use, and a production method of the same.The oil-based hair cosmetic material of the invention is those which comprise (A) a dibasic acid ester compound of general formula (1):wherein R1 is an alkylene group having a carbon number of 2-4, which may be mono- or poly-substituted, R2 and R3 are, independently of one another, an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1-4, which may be mono- or poly-substituted, R4 and R5 are, independently of one another, hydrogen or a methyl group or ethyl group which may be mono- or poly-substituted, m and n are, independently of one another, an integer of 0-4 with m+n≧1 (provided that the cases wherein R2 and R3 are both an ethyl group and m and n are both 1 are excluded), and (B) one or more oil agents selected from the group consisting of a volatile oil, an ester oil, a hydrocarbon oil, an animal / plant oil, and a silicone oil. Using this, it is possible to realize hair cosmetic materials and hair cosmetics that have both high improvement effects on damaged hair and excellent sensation upon use.

{Object} To provide an oil-in-water emulsified hair cosmetic of the present invention manifests good absorption and spreadability into the hair, doesn't cause dripping during use, and yet has an aesthetic appearance of transparent or semi-transparent gel despite the fact that it has a high mending effect and a rich sensation as is found in oil-based hair care agents.{Means to achieve the object} (a) Silicones chosen from high polymer silicone that is gum-like or has a viscosity of 1 million cs or higher, silicone with both ends hydroxy-modified, amino-modified silicone, ammonium-modified silicone, and polyalkylene glycol-modified silicone: 0.1-10 wt %, (b) Dimethylpolysiloxane having a viscosity of 100 cs or less: 0.5-79 wt %, (c) Polyhydric alcohol: 1-25 wt %, and (d) Hydrophilic surfactant: 1-10 wt % are blended in, the blend ratio of the oil phase is made to be 50-80 wt %, and the blend ratio (mass ratio) between (a) and (b) is made to be (a):(b)=1:5-1:100.[Selected drawings] None

Cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions and methods employ peptides of general formula (I):R1-AA1-AA2-AA3-R2,  (I)where AA1 is selected from -Tyr- and -Phe-, AA2 is -Tyr-, and AA3 is selected from -Nle- and -Met-,its stereoisomers, mixtures thereof and / or their cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, in the treatment and / or care of conditions, disorders and / or diseases of the skin and / or hair by stimulating cyclic adenosine monophosphate synthesis (cAMP).

To provide a highly storage-stable nonionic oil-in-water organosiloxane emulsion composition that substantially does not contain ionic surfactant and that on a long-term basis does not undergo separation of the emulsion composition. An oil-in-water organosiloxane emulsion composition that characteristically comprises (A) 100 weight parts of organosiloxane, (B) 0.5 to 35 weight parts of organic-modified organosiloxane, (C) 0.5 to 35 weight parts of nonionic surfactant, (D) 0.5 to 15 weight parts of water-soluble solvent, and (E) water, wherein the content of (F) ionic surfactant in the composition is less than 0.1 weight part per 100 weight parts component (A).

Disclosed is a method of preparing a hair and scalp conditioning composition. According to the method, a hair cosmetic base and aromatic oils are aged by separate reaction processes and are blended to improve the stability of the aromatic oils. Therefore, the activities of the aromatic oils, particularly for the prevention of hair loss and dandruff, are enhanced.

A combination of a musk with one or more ingredients of specific chemical structures in particular proportions makes it possible to obtain a fragrance composition which can mask an odor peculiar to an acidic hair cosmetic composition and is also excellent in long-term stability. By combining fragrant materials selected as desired from (E) ingredients each characterized primarily by the abundant release of a scent from foam, (F) ingredients each characterized primarily by the abundant release of a scent from a bottle mouth and (G) ingredients each characterized by good persistence of scent, an excellent fragrance composition can be obtained with a good balance among the abundant release of a scent from foam, the abundant release of a scent from a bottle mouth, and good persistence of scent.
