Solution Overview

Problem

Current cosmetic compositions often fail to provide comprehensive moisturizing and protective benefits to both skin and hair, particularly in dry conditions, and may not effectively control bacteria or improve hair texture and shine.

Innovation Solution

A cosmetic composition incorporating pomace olive oil, combined with various natural oils such as safflower oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, and essential oils like sweet orange oil, along with texturing agents and butters, to create a moisturizing, protective, and bacterial control formulation that can be used as a shampoo, hair and body oil, or dry skin emulsion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional cosmetic compositions are used, then basic moisturizing is provided, but comprehensive protective benefits against dryness and heat styling damage are not achieved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprotective benefitsVSAvoidcomprehensive benefits
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines pomace olive oil with multiple complementary oils (coconut oil, argan oil, jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, grape seed oil, sunflower oil, avocado oil, hemp seed oil, flaxseed oil, sesame oil, black cumin seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, mango butter, babassu oil, rice bran oil, camellia oil, hazelnut oil, pistachio oil, peach kernel oil, apricot kernel oil, pomegranate seed oil, rosehip oil, seabuckthorn oil, evening primrose oil, borage oil, blackcurrant seed oil, green tea oil, rosemary oil, lavender oil, tea tree oil, eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, ginger oil, turmeric oil, aloe vera oil, chamomile oil, calendula oil, comfrey oil, plantain oil, yarrow oil, St. John's wort oil, gotu kola oil, centella asiatica oil, acai berry oil, goji berry oil, pomegranate oil, blueberry oil, strawberry oil, raspberry oil, blackberry oil, cranberry oil, grapefruit oil, lemon oil, lime oil, orange oil, tangerine oil, bergamot oil, neroli oil, petitgrain oil, clary sage oil, frankincense oil, myrrh oil, sandalwood oil, patchouli oil, vetiver oil, cedarwood oil, cypress oil, juniper oil, thyme oil, oregano oil, basil oil, rose oil, jasmine oil, tuberose oil, ylang-ylang oil, neroli oil, helichrysum oil, geranium oil, lavender oil, chamomile oil, calendula oil, comfrey oil, plantain oil, yarrow oil, St. John's wort oil, gotu kola oil, centella asiatica oil) to create a composite formulation that provides synergistic moisturizing, protective, and reparative benefits for hair and skin

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Shape

If pomade is applied to style hair, then desired form is achieved, but the greasy consistency cannot be readily combed out and requires washing to remove

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehair formVSAvoidcombing ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ShapeVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent modifies the physical and chemical parameters of styling products by incorporating lightweight oils with optimal viscosity and absorption characteristics. The combination of oils creates a formulation that provides sufficient hold and styling capability while maintaining ease of combing and natural appearance, eliminating the greasy, difficult-to-remove consistency of traditional pomades

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If skin creams are applied to prevent drying, then softness is improved, but bacterial control is not effectively provided

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesoftnessVSAvoidbacterial growth
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges moisturizing functions with antibacterial protection by combining oils known for their moisturizing properties (such as jojoba oil, argan oil, coconut oil, shea butter) with oils possessing natural antibacterial and antifungal characteristics (such as tea tree oil, lavender oil, rosemary oil, thyme oil, oregano oil, clove oil, cinnamon oil, neem oil, aloe vera oil). This creates a unified cosmetic composition that simultaneously delivers softness and bacterial control

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
