Detergent and/or disinfectant for washing and/or disinfecting The present invention relates to a washing and/or disinfecting agent for washing and/or disinfecting surfaces, in particular skin surfaces, which comprises a base agent which is designed and intended for washing and/or disinfecting surfaces, in particular skin surfaces, with at least one substance additive being admixed to the base agent, which, after contact with the surface, assumes a different color consistency than the base agent for a predeterminable period of time, so that the substance additive serves as a marking means by means of which it is possible for the user to read whether the desired points of the surface to be washed and/or disinfected have been wetted with a sufficient amount of the base agent or have been wetted at all and/or a reaction time of the base agent has essentially been completed.

An aerosol hair care product includes a pressurisable container a propellant, a hair care formulation, and a spraying device. The pressurisable container is at a pressure of 9×10.sup.5 to 11×10.sup.5 Pa. The pressurisable container includes a container wall which encloses a reservoir. The propellant is contained within the reservoir. The propellant includes an insoluble compressed gas and has a first weight. The hair care formulation is contained within the reservoir. The hair care formulation has a second weight and includes starch having a third weight. The third weight is 3 to 15% of a sum of the first weight and the second weight. The spraying device is attached to the pressurisable container. The spraying device is configured to facilitate dispensing of the hair care formulation from the reservoir. The spraying device includes an actuator and a valve.
