Compositions and methods of manufacture for an extended time-release fragrance comprising volatile organic compounds. A composition of the disclosure includes an effective amount of a volatile organic compound for providing a fragrance that can be sensed by a user and fractionated coconut oil comprising caprylic acid and capric acid.

A hair-dyeing composition with an effect of minimizing hair damage and scalp irritation caused by ammonia prescription and ammonia odor is capable of decreasing ammonia odor peculiar to a hair-dyeing composition and also of supplementing the hair with amino acids similar to hair proteins to decrease hair damage, especially hair roughness and hair shortening, for healthy dyeing and a method of producing the same.

The invention provides a personal cleansing composition having an aqueous continuous phase including cleansing surfactant and a solubilised hydrocarbon oil having a kinematic viscosity of 1 to 35 cSt at 40 C. and a specific gravity of 0.76 to 0.87 at 25 C.; in which the hydrocarbon oil is solubilised in wormlike micelles in the aqueous continuous phase by means of a linker molecule and an inorganic electrolyte; in which the linker molecule is selected from one or more compounds of formula: R(X).sub.n, in which R is a C.sub.6 to C.sub.14 mono-, di- or trivalent saturated aliphatic or an aromatic hydrocarbyl group, n is 1 to 3 and each X is independently selected from OH and COOH; and in which the level of hydrocarbon oil in the composition ranges from 0.8 to 1.5% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.

The present invention relates to benefit agent containing delivery particles, compositions comprising said particles, and processes for making and using the aforementioned particles and compositions. When employed in compositions, for example, cleaning or fabric care compositions, such particles increase the efficiency of benefit agent delivery, thereby allowing reduced amounts of benefit agents to be employed. In addition to allowing the amount of benefit agent to be reduced, such particles allow a broad range of benefit agents to be employed.

A hair-dyeing composition that minimizes hair damage and scalp irritation caused by applying ammonia to the scalp and that reduces the ammonia odor peculiar to hair-dyeing compositions is provided. The hair-dyeing composition additionally supplements the hair with amino acids similar to hair proteins to decrease hair damage, especially hair roughness and hair shortening, for healthy dyeing. A method of producing the hair-dyeing composition is additionally provided and includes melting, mixing, and emulsifying steps.

A process of making compositions comprising benefit agent delivery particles comprises the steps of combining a graft co-polymer and a benefit agent to form a premix composition, and combining the premix composition and water and/or consumer product adjunct material to form the compositions. The resulting compositions comprise benefit agent delivery particles that comprise the graft co-polymer and benefit agent.

A personal cleansing composition includes a surfactant system, wherein the surfactant system includes from 0.1% to 5% of a fatty acyl isethionate surfactant by weight of the composition; from 0.5% to 40% of a co-surfactant by weight of the composition; from 0.05% to 5% of a natural polysaccharide or a chemically modified natural polysaccharide by weight of the composition; wherein the personal cleansing composition includes a first and second phase, wherein the first phase is an isotropic and micellar surfactant phase; wherein the second phase is a polymer liquid crystalline phase; wherein the composition is free of alkyl sulfate and alkyl ether sulfate type of surfactants; wherein the composition exhibits a yield stress value .sub.y from 0.005 Pa to 3 Pa; and wherein the composition exhibits a flow viscosity from 3 Pa.Math.s to 100 Pa.Math.s at 25 C. at a shear rate of 1.5 s.sup.1.

A polymeric micelle carrier composition contains i) a block copolymer having a hydrophilic polymer chain segment and a hydrophobic polymer chain segment; ii) a charged surfactant; and iii) a fatty oil. The carrier composition can be utilized as a base material of a cosmetic composition or a pharmaceutical composition and excels in loadability of non-lipophilic drugs. One example of a non-lipophilic drug is a hair growth promoting peptide.
