Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
A cosmetic composition which comprises an oxidation-stable solution of 0.5 to 20% of an essential fatty acid or a mixture of essential fatty acids in a vegetable oil, said essential fatty acid or acids being selected from the group consisting of linoleic acid or an isomer thereof, a conjugated linoleic acid or an isomer thereof, α-linolenic acid or an isomer thereof, γ-linolenic acid or an isomer thereof, and arachidonic acid or an isomer thereof, and said vegetable oil being jojoba oil in an amount of about 80% to about 99.5% by weight of said solution.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
95 words
A cosmetic composition which comprises an oxidation-stable solution of 0.5 to 20% of an essential fatty acid or a mixture of essential fatty acids in a vegetable oil, said essential fatty acid or acids being selected from the group consisting of linoleic acid or an isomer thereof, a conjugated linoleic acid or an isomer thereof, α-linolenic acid or an isomer thereof, γ-linolenic acid or an isomer thereof, and arachidonic acid or an isomer thereof, and said vegetable oil being jojoba oil in an amount of about 80% to about 99.5% by weight of said solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim

The cosmetic composition of claim 1 in which a mixture of essential fatty acids is present, said mixture being vitamin F.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
An oxidation-stable solution of vitamin F and jojoba oil, said vitamin F being present in an amount of about 0.5 to about 20% by weight, said jojoba oil being present in an amount of about 80% to 99.5% by weight of said solution.

Claim 6
Dependent Claim
