Abstract

The present invention intends to provide a composition for hair and skin treatment containing a combination consisting of silk amino acid and protein complexes, seed oils, polysaccharides, polyol, monosaccharide, and botanicals. The composition for hair and skin treatment containing the combination consisting of silk amino acid and protein complexes, seed oils, polysaccharides, and botanicals has excellent improvement effects on the condition of the hair follicle and cuticle, imparts moisture to dry hair; thereby reducing the damaging effects of psoriasis, eczema, alopecia, and seborrheic dermatitis. Furthermore, it imparts retention of moisture to the skin resulting in an improved appearance and diminished appearance of lines on the skin. This invention relates to the manufacture of personal care products to be applied to the hair and skin. The compositions may be in the form of hair conditioners, hair growth treatments, shampoos, skin care, skin cleansing, or anti-wrinkle products, and ointments.

Claims

1. Use in topical w/o and o/w emulsions of a combination of amino acids, polyol, D-ribose, polysaccharide, and fatty acids which are expected to increase oxygen uptake of the hair follicle with the result of stimulating the metabolic processes of the hair follicle leading to reparation of damaged follicles while the cationic polysaccharides and the silk proteins bind to the hair thereby controlling damage to the hair and promoting hair growth.

2. Use in topical w/o and o/w emulsions of a combination of flavanoid and anthocyanin rich botanicals, natural seed oils, cationic polysaccharides, silk proteins and amino acids to treat hair and skin conditions including, but not limited to dandruff, eczema, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and alopecia.

3. A topical composition comprising:

sericin;

chitosan; and

ribose.

4. A topical composition as in claim 3, further comprising:

Myrica rubra extract.

5. A topical composition as in claim 4, where the Myrica rubra extract is present in a Myrica rubra extract concentration range of approximately 0.003% to 5%.

6. A topical composition as in claim 3, wherein the Ribose is present in a Ribose concentration range of approximately 0.001% to 3%.

7. A topical composition as in claim 3, wherein the Chitosan is present in a Chitosan concentration range of approximately 0.003% to 0.05%.

8. A topical composition as in claim 3, further comprising quinoa extract.

9. A topical composition as in claim 3, further comprising one or more algae extracts and one or more seed extracts.

10. A topical composition as in claim 9, wherein the one or more seed extracts comprise flaxseed oil in a flaxseed oil concentration range of approximately 5 to 25%.

11. A topical composition as in claim 3, further comprising silk amino acids in a silk amino acid concentration range of approximately 0.1% to 0.7%.

12. A topical composition as in claim 3, wherein the sericin is present in a sericin concentration range of approximately 0.03% to 3%.

13. A method comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of a composition to treat a condition of hair or/or skin, wherein the composition comprises:

sericin in a sericin concentration range of approximately 0.03% to 3%;

chitosan; and

ribose.

14. A method as in claim 13, wherein the condition comprises a denatured protein structure of the hair.

15. A method as in claim 13, wherein the condition comprises a degradation of at least one of keratin proteins and other constituents of the hair.

16. A method as in claim 13, wherein the condition comprises an obstruction of a hair cuticle on the skin.

17. A method as in claim 13, wherein the condition comprises a decreased water content of the skin.
