Meadowfoam seed oil as a natural dispersing agent for colorants in lipstick. [PDF]
Int J Cosmet Sci, 2021 In this study, a green and sustainable oil, meadowfoam seed oil was evaluated as a pigment dispersing agent and compared to castor oil and octyldodecanol in dispersions and lipsticks. Overall, meadowfoam seed oil’s performance was qualitatively and quantitatively similar to castor oil and octyldodecanol indicating that meadowfoam seed oil is a viable ...

A comparison between silicone-free and silicone-based emulsions: Technological features and in vivo evaluation. [PDF]
Int J Cosmet Sci, 2022 Abstract Objective Nowadays, the use of silicones in cosmetic formulation is still controversial, given that “natural” or “biodegradable” components are preferred. Often, the exclusion and/or the discrimination of these excipients from cosmetic field are unmotivated because all things cannot be painted with the same brush.

Asymmetric adjustment of control
Contemporary Accounting Research, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 2203-2225, Winter 2023., 2023 Abstract This study examines how principals adjust their control over agents based on their prior controlling experience. According to standard economic theory, principals should be equally willing to decrease their control as they are to increase it.

Surface‐To‐Ocean Exchange by the Sinking of Impact Generated Melt Chambers on Europa
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 49, Issue 24, 28 December 2022., 2022 Abstract Impacts into icy bodies often generate near‐surface melt chambers and thermal perturbations that soften the ice. We explore the post‐impact evolution of non‐penetrating impacts into Europa's ice shell. Simulations of viscous ice deformation show that dense impact melts founder before refreezing.
