PCT No. PCT/US93/04763 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 18, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 18, 1997 PCT Filed May 19, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/23061 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 25, 1993A new class of general antiinfective agents extracted from pepper, ginger, and other plant species containing vanillyl and piperidine ring structures typical of the pungent principal found in pepper and ginger. The role of these structures, their attached hydrocarbons groups, and other agents found with the plant extract is demonstrated in the topical treatment of dermatophyte infections, tissue injuries, and abnormal proliferations of keratin.

The invention relates to a novel amino acid silicon polymer with good adhesion to the keratin layer of the skin, a method of preparing the amino acid silicon polymer, a cosmetic particles surface-treated with the amino acid silicon polymer, and a color cosmetic composition including the cosmetic particles. According to the present invention, the particles surface-treated up to 3% to the maximum with the amino acid silicon polymer prepared by reacting an amino acid and a functional silicon polymer in the manner of organic synthesis have water resistance and usability peculiar to silicon-treated pigments and take positive surface charges, thereby offering good adhesion to the skin and durability. Due to these characteristics, the cosmetic containing the surface-treated particles of the present invention is superior in the cosmetic effect to that containing the conventional surface-treated particles.

The present invention is related to surfactant-based formulations comprising the polyelectrolytes and blends of such polyelectrolytes with non-cellulosic cationic polysaccharide polymers. The surfactant-based formulations exhibit improved clarity of the resulting formulations, their improved conditioning of keratin substrates, textile substrates, and hard-surface substrates, their improved deposition of dispersed phase materials onto keratin substrates, textile substrates, and hard-surface substrates, their improved lather performance, and their improved rheology in applications such as personal care and household care products and textile applications.

A hair extension includes a hair weft. The hair weft is made of individual strands of human or synthetic hair. Far infrared powder is deposited onto Polyurethane (PU) and/or Keratin adhesive glue and webbing of silk or synthetic lace is incorporated with hair weft to create the human or synthetic hair PU and/or Keratin skin as connection strip(s). A connection strip receives connected ends of the individual strands of human or synthetic hair. A top adhesive strip is disposed on a top side of the connection strip and a bottom adhesive strip is disposed on a bottom side of the connection strip. The top and bottom adhesive strips both have a left side and a right side. The left side of the top adhesive strip and right side of the top adhesive strip are divided by an adhesive parting line.
