Efficacy
Sea Anemone Delivery of Collagen and γ-PGA for Anti-aging Benefits
The effective delivery of youth-preserving collagen and moisture remains a cosmetic Holy Grail. In response, this study describes a natural microinjection system based on the stinging cells of the
Cnidaria
sea anemone to effectively puncture the stratum corneum layer and deliver its content—both marine collagen and γ-PGA—into skin, offering a promising new class of solutions to age-old challenges.

Physical appearance plays an important role in social perception and interaction. This article presents findings of an evolutionary approach to female facial appearance within and between ethnic groups.
Cleansing
Structured Surfactant Systems for Improved Lasting Deposition of Perfume on Skin and Hair
To maximize perfume delivery from structured cleansing formulations, the fragrance must be introduced before structuring the formulation into multilamellar vesicles. Structured formulations fragranced in such a way are shown here to improve perfume deposition and duration versus micellar systems, with no negative impact on perfume burst during use.
