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

International 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 ...

Reinventing henna: Enzyme‐catalysed colour release from stabilized Lawsonia inermis L. extracts

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The instability and reduced dyeing performance of a cosmetic formulation containing 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (lawsone), derived from Lawsonia inermis L., is demonstrated in comparison to a novel two‐component system. This system comprises one formulation with naturally occurring lawsone precursors and a second containing a specific hydrolase ...

Friction and vibration generated during sliding over bare skin correlate with perceived smoothness and moistness

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A tactile sensor with a probe replicating a fingerprint quantified skin texture by measuring vibration and friction. Regression analysis linked smoothness and moistness perceptions with high‐frequency vibration amplitude and friction. These findings support the objective assessment of skin texture, enhancing product evaluation consistency and bridging ...

Endotyping Chronic Respiratory Diseases: T2 Inflammation in the United Airways Model

Life
Over the past 15 years, the paradigm of viewing the upper and lower airways as a unified system has progressively shifted the approach to chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs). As the global prevalence of CRDs continues to increase, it becomes evident that

Defining and decoding skin glow of women with skin phototype IV+ living in South Africa: Part 1

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This study is the first to decode glowing skin for African women with phototype IV+. It reveals that radiant, smooth and healthy‐looking skin is key attributes for glowing skin. By analysing consumer terminology, routines and hinderances, our findings provide a foundation for developing skincare solutions tailored to these unique needs.

Experimental Development and Validation of an E-Textile Sleeve for Surface Electromyography

Proceedings
This work describes the development of a leg sleeve with embedded e-textile electrodes for surface electromyography (sEMG). The novel device is a textile substrate with embedded circular electrodes made of conductive fabric, which can be connected to EMG

Rational determination of real‐life UV exposure across latitudes: An extended Diffey‐based model integrating behavioural factors

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This study models real‐life UVB and UVA exposure across latitudes and seasons using an extended Diffey framework with behavioural corrections. Findings reveal predictable dose patterns and support pragmatic SPF and UVA‐PF caps, offering a quantitative basis for realistic photoprotection and regulatory discussion.

Migraine and Restless Legs Syndrome: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Restless legs syndrome is a sensorimotor disorder of sleep/wake regulation that frequently coexists with migraine, affecting patients' quality of life. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of restless legs syndrome in individuals with migraine and to explore the associated clinical, demographic and behavioural aspects.
