Letter from the Chair …Stacey House
And just like that, it is September! I hope everyone had an enjoyable summer filled with some rest and relaxation At the NYSCC, we kept the torch bur ning and have a lot lined up until the end of the year
First, I want to thank Dr Roger McMullen (Ashland Inc and Fairleigh Dickinson University) for the stellar Acne Care Symposium he chaired in June along with co-chair Miao Wang (L’Oréal USA) Skin care experts many of them principal investigators, clinical researchers, and der matologists got to the root of acne offering insight into its causes and the best treatment options
Also in June, the NYSCC continued its campaign to educate and infor m students on careers in chemistry We chaired a technical session on “Cosmetic Chemistry” during the 51st Middle-Atlantic Regional Meeting (MARM) of ACS hosted by its New York Chapter, St John’s University, and The Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY). The meeting was themed “Chemistry Refocused” and included technical and poster sessions on varied subjects within chemistry, employment programming, workshops, and more. Our session attracted more than 75 participants and featured members of the NYSCC Executive Board and Scientific Committee presenting top cosmetic chemistry topics followed by a panel discussion on career paths in industry
July and August featured our annual Golf Outing and Fishing Trip, and it was great to have many members participate in these fun outdoor events that keep us connected throughout the year
Looking forward, our popular Culinary Night will take place on September 28th in New York City this year at The Midtown Loft and Terrace Lear n some new culinary tips while enjoying delicious creations from professional chefs while networking with your peers
In the Fall, we will be supporting “sister” chapters and association partners Board members and the Suppliers’ Day Team are participating at the IFSCC Congress in Barcelona, Florida Sunscreen Symposium in Orlando, and Califor nia Chapter’s Suppliers’ Day in Long Beach. Stay tuned for our plans at National’s Scientific Meeting and Showcase Symposium in December along with our Education Night where numerous scholarships and grants will be awarded.
I am honored to be a CEW Ambassador for its 2023 Beauty Creators Awards The finalists of the CEW Supplier’s Award for Ingredients and For mulation will be on display at their Beauty Bazaar on September 21st and the winner will be announced at the CEW Awards Luncheon on November 7th.
Finally, we will be voting soon for our 2024 executive board members, so please be on the lookout for the ballot and cast your vote.
Hope to see you all soon at one of our many Fall engagements

and contain various proportions of saturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated fatty acids In animals, the fatty acid constituents of triglycerides have greater levels of saturated fats (relative to polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats), whereas in plants there are greater amounts of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. For this reason, most plant oils are in the liquid state at room temperature
Figure 1: Molecular structure of a triglyceride. In this example, that fatty acid moieties of the triglyceride contain three distinct entities The three fatty acid chains in triglycerides can be the same or they can be a mixture Starting from top to bottom, this triglyceride is composed of palmitic acid (16:0), oleic acid (18:1), and alpha-linolenic acid (18:3).
The fatty acid components of triglycerides can vary in chain length they can be short (≤ 6 carbons), medium (≤ 12 carbons), or long (12 – 22 carbons) which effects their physicochemical behavior In some cases, triglycerides may contain omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 essential fatty acids The overall composition of the triglycerides (the types of fatty acids, their length, and the degree of saturation/ unsaturation) is unique for each natural oil For example, coconut oil has higher levels of saturated fats than most plant oils, which is why it exists in the solid state at room temperature.
n Natural Oils in Wound Healing
Wound healing consists of the regeneration and tissue repair processes after the development of a chronic (pathological condition) or acute (trauma) lesion in the skin There are three principal stages in wound healing, which include the inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling stage Essentially, these stages are characterized by a series of biochemical and cellular events that involve cytokines, growth factors, and other important bioactive molecules that eventually lead to fibroblast proliferation, collagen synthesis, and epithelialization
In recent years, it has been established that bioactive fatty acids play an important role in the inflammatory stage of wound healing 8,9 Essential polyunsaturated fatty acids and their metabolic products are believed to play an integral role in modulating wound healing Omega-3 (e g , alphalinolenic acid) and omega-6 (e g , linoleic acid) fatty acids metabolize to a number of different molecules including leukotrienes, lipoxins, prostaglandins, and thromboxanes twenty-carbon chain length bioactive compounds known as eicosanoids 10 In addition to alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid, omega-9 fatty acids (oleic acid and erucic acid) were also reported to provide positive anti-inflammatory effects during wound healing 11 In summary, anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties have been demonstrated for various botanical oils including olive oil, grape seed oil, coconut oil, argan oil, jojoba oil, and numerous other oils.6 12-15
n Natural Oils and Diseases of the Skin
A brief survey of the scientific literature reveals a number of studies investigating the effects of oils on various diseases encountered in der matology 16 In addition to fatty acids and other lipids in the oils, there are numerous biologically important molecules such as monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, diterpines (e g , cannabinoids, tocopherols), triterpenoids (e g , squalene, sterols), carotenoids, and polyphenols 17 These phytochemicals have been shown to efficaciously alleviate the symptoms of inflammatory skin

diseases, such as contact der matitis, atopic der matitis, and psoriasis In addition, dietary supplementation with essential fatty acids has shown beneficial effects in the treatment of acne, atopic der matitis, pruritis, psoriasis, and skin ulcers.18-20 Further more, supplementation with an omega-3 fatty acid was shown to reduce the risk of skin cancer in organ transplant recipients (patients who undergo transplant procedures have a very high risk of developing skin cancer).21 There has also been considerable interest in utilizing natural oils produced by the plant Cannabis sativa for the treatment of skin inflammatory diseases Hemp seed and cannabidiol (CBD) oil have been found to be the most efficacious oils from Cannabis sativa for treating skin inflammatory conditions 22
n Therapeutic Benefits of Natural Oils
One of the principal benefits of treating skin with natural oils is to alleviate dry skin by enhancing its barrier function. Due to compositional differences, each natural oil interacts uniquely with the skin. Some of the most commonly used oils for skin therapy are almond, argan, coconut, evening primrose (Oenothera biennis), jojoba, oat, and olive oil 23,24 It is noteworthy that while olive oil has a number of reported benefits for skin mostly for treatment of skin aging, pruritis, and xerosis there are concer ns that it negatively affects skin barrier function 25 Regardless, natural oils help for m a physical barrier on the skin surface and function as a source of lipids to fortify the skin’s barrier. Future research could help identify specific oils that should be used for a particular skin treatment modality 26
Aroma massage therapy consists of the use of essential oils in conjunction with massage techniques Natural oils are used as carrier oils for the essential oils. In addition to diluting the essential oil, the carrier oil lubricates the skin surface facilitating the massage procedure Some common carrier oils are almond, coconut, grapeseed, jojoba, and sunflower oil. In general, carrier oils should have a pleasant scent and be aesthetically pleasing when applied to the skin When choosing a carrier oil, it is best to find an oil that is absorbed well by the skin that does not result in an oleaginous (greasy) sensation.
n Neonatal Skin Care
Newbor n infants are especially prone to developing dry skin conditions as their skin adapts to life outside of the uterus From a physiological perspective, infant skin is quite different from adult skin In infant skin the stratum cor neum and epider mis are thinner and there is significant risk of trans-epider mal water loss due to less barrier lipids and natural moisturizing factor In addition, there is an accelerated breakdown of cor neodesmosomes due to the higher surface pH (which affects desquamation) 27 Several studies highlight the possible benefits of treating neonatal skin with botanical oils, such as sunflower, coconut, almond, olive, palm (Elaeis guineensis), and mustard oil (Brassica juncea); however, there seems to be a consensus that further study is warranted to deter mine efficacy and any proposed mechanisms.2830 For example, researchers at the University of Sheffield in the UK found that treatment of neonatal skin with olive oil compromised skin barrier integrity and induced mild erythema in patients 31 Further more, researchers at Columbia University in New York City reported that olive oil can exacerbate atopic der matitis and xerosis in pediatric subjects 32
n The Paradoxical Behavior of Natural Oils in Relation to Epidermal Barrier Function
The stratum cor neum of skin contains cor neocyte cells embedded in a matrix of endogenous lipids consisting of long-chain ceramides, cholesterol, and free fatty acids organized into multilamellar structures Sebum is found on the surface of the skin and contains a mixture of triglycerides, wax esters, free fatty acids, squalene, and cholesterol esters. One would expect that treatment of skin with natural oils could help maintain the moisture levels of skin by enhancing its epider mal barrier function via the for mation of an occlusive lipid layer on the surface thereby preventing trans-epider mal water loss. However, in recent years it has been discovered that some natural oils may disrupt the skin’s structural

lipids thereby compromising stratum cor neum barrier function
Treatment with some oils can fluidize stratum cor neum lipids and compromise epider mal barrier function In fact, natural oils have been used as penetration enhancers in the transder mal delivery of active phar maceutical ingredients.33 34 More than likely, the triglycerides in oils that are applied to the skin will be hydrolyzed by resident lipases resulting in the for mation of free fatty acids, which can disrupt the ordered structure of lipid lamellae in the stratum cor neum 35 In general, the paradoxical effect produced by some oils is thought to be more prevalent in patients suffering from atopic der matitis and other skin ailments
n Concluding Remarks
Natural lipids are employed in several applications in skin care In this article, we introduce some of the traditional treatment modalities and highlight some of the most recent studies published in the scientific literature which demonstrate health benefits for the skin. The available data suggest an important role for natural oils in treating skin inflammatory disorders, wound healing, skin therapy, and neonatal skin care. Despite the widespread use of natural oils in cosmetic for mulations, there is considerable need to conduct further research in this area to better elucidate the mechanisms responsible for the efficacious nature of the oils Looking ahead to the future, such action will require us to proactively investigate the bioactivity of the components of a broad range of natural oils in a systematic manner. In addition, a better understanding of the detrimental effects of certain oils to epider mal barrier function in specific types of skin needs to be elucidated in future studies.

The NYSCC in 1960
Herman
In 1960:
• OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) was for med
• A Soviet missile shot down a U S U2 spy plane
• The U.S. announced that 3,500 American soldiers were going to Vietnam.
• The first televised U S presidential debate took place between John F Kennedy and Richard Nixon.
• The classic American novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee was published
• John F Kennedy won the presidential election
• The NYSCC hit its stride.
The early years of the NYSCC were well documented in the Jour nal of Cosmetic Science, and herein is everything reported in 1960.

New York Chapter News
Dr. Paul Becher of the Atlas Powder Company once again addressed the Chapter on the subject of “HLB Approach to Emulsion Stability ” This interesting paper was presented on January 6th and was augmented by color film as well as slides Dr Becher presented some of the background of the search for a correlation between HLB and some fundamental property of emulsifiers, leading to the present study of the spreading coefficient between two liquid phases Meetings of the Chapter are held in the Terrace Room of the Hotel New Yorker, West Thirty-fourth Street and Eighth Avenue, New York City.

On February 3rd, two speakers presented current work on histology and in vitro maintenance of skin Dr Moire Bradshaw of the Isaac Albert Institute – Jewish Chronic Diseases Hospital, Brooklyn, NY, discussed a technique for deter mining the extent of percutaneous absorption of lipids through nor mal skin as demonstrated by a fat-soluble dye Sudan Black B. Biopsies of skin to which the dye in lipids was

applied were prepared for histological studies and the presence of the black dye taken as a measure of lipid penetration Dr Bradshaw’s color slides clearly demonstrated the superiority of cryo-static sections over gelatin sections for this type of work She further pointed out that animal studies are not applicable to human skin due to the difference in enzymes and skin structure.
The second paper, by Angelica Findley and Ronald Gillette, was delivered by Miss Findley She described work on homotransplantation of human and animal tissue at the New York Hospital – Cor nell Medical Center Two salient limiting factors in maintaining organ cultures of skin are: (1) supplying adequate nourishment and (2) preventing dedifferentiation to embryonic for m Thin sections of skin were “floated” on a complex nutrient medium for optimum diffusion Dedifferentiation was prevented with cortisone acetate in the culture flask The criterion for successful maintenance of structural integrity is the subsequent successful grafting of the skin to the original donor.
Mr H P Donohue, Jr of Godfrey L Cabot, Inc , presented a paper on the properties and applications of pyrogenic silica at the March 9th meeting. The speaker pointed out some applications of pyrogenic silica based on its properties of chemical inertness, ability to thicken polar and nonpolar systems to for m thixotropic structures, and power to suspend solids Pyrogenic silica has been approved by the FDA for a number of uses, including inter nal use in certain amounts. The Annual Ladies’ Night Dinner and Dance was held April 22nd at the Diamond Horseshoe, New York City Meetings of the Chapter are held in the Terrace Room of the Hotel New Yorker, West Thirty-fourth Street and Eighth Avenue, New York City.

The New York Chapter announces a new meeting place for its monthly dinner and lectures. The Hotel George Washington, Lexington Avenue and Twenty-third Street, has made available the Regency Room with adjoining patio. All meetings will be held on the first Wednesday of the month. The first speaker of the fall program was Dr W ilhelm C Hueper, National Cancer Institute, whose topic was “Potential Cancer Hazards from Cosmetics to Producers and Consumers ” Dr Hueper, chief of the Environmental Cancer Section, is the recent recipient of the Rosenthal Award for his study of the causes of cancer in man Since the early 1920’s Dr Hueper has been studying the exogenous causes of cancer in man and was one of the first to call attention to the possible hazard of x-rays and to pinpoint β-naphthylamine as cancer producing His book, Occupational Tumors and Allied Diseases, published in 1942 is a standard text on the subject.
On October 5th Dr Steven Jellinek of Polak Frutal Works spoke on “Evaporation Rates and Odor Quality of Perfumes ” Dr Jellinek received his training in cosmetics and perfumes in Europe as well as in the United States. After receiving his doctorate from the University of W isconsin, he has served as a perfumer for Polak’s Frutal Works in England, Holland, and the United States He is the author of Cosmetologie (Ger man) as well as many papers on perfumery and related subjects.
The speaker for President’s Night on November 2nd was Mr Lester Conrad who discussed “Resistance of Acetylated Lanolin Derivatives to Hydrolysis ” Mr Conrad is the founder, executive vice-president, and technical director of the American Cholesterol Products Company He has specialized in the field of lanolin and sterol chemistry for over twenty years and has been the author of a great number of patents and papers as well as a popular speaker before technical societies.
