Perceptions of female age, health and attractiveness vary with systematic hair manipulations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Two experiments were conducted to study how lay individuals evaluate systematic changes in female head hair. The results showed that participants tended to rate high‐shine hair more favourably than lower‐shine hair. When combining shine with alignment and volume, straight‐aligned hair with high shine and low volume was generally perceived as more ...

Anticipating cosmetic emulsion stability using a novel multi‐analytical approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A novel combination of granulometry, turbidimetry and rheology enables early detection of cosmetic emulsion instability—reducing assessment time from 30 to 8 days. This rapid method distinguishes stable from unstable emulsions under identical conditions, offering a powerful tool for formulation screening and industrial quality control.

Low-Thrust Lyapunov to Lyapunov and Halo to Halo with $L^2$-Minimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this work, we develop a new method to design energy minimum low-thrust missions (L2-minimization). In the Circular Restricted Three Body Problem, the knowledge of invariant manifolds helps us initialize an indirect method solving a transfer mission ...

The hidden science of haptics: A pedagogical review of tactile evaluation in cosmetics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This review explores the physiological basis of tactile perception and critically examines classical and emerging sensory methods used in cosmetics, advocating for broader methodological integration and recognition of sensory analysis in the field. Abstract Sensory analysis is a cornerstone of cosmetic development, yet remains underrepresented in peer ...

Commercial clays in cosmetic formulations for hair care: Characterization and application to improve the mechanical properties of hair fibre

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The shampoo and conditioner bar formulations enhanced hair gloss, promoting softness, improved cuticle alignment, and effective protection of hair shafts against external aggressors. Findings from mechanical properties measurements indicate that the clay‐containing formulations enhance the mechanical strength of hair, contributing to stronger and more ...

Observability of rectangular membranes and plates on small sets

open access: yes, 2013
Since the works of Haraux and Jaffard we know that rectangular plates may be observed by subregions not satisfying the geometrical control condition. We improve these results by observing only on an arbitrarily short segment inside the domain.

Compatibility of personal care thickening polymers in sulphate‐free surfactants

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Phase behaviour for alpha olefin sulfonate surfactant 10–15 wt% combined with 1 wt% sodium carboxy methyl cellulose, clearly indicating the sensitivity in miscibility when adding various levels of background salt. Abstract Objective Formulators today know that when traditional surfactants and polymers are replaced new problems occur. What was before a ‘
