A rheofluidifying surfactant composition structured into planar lamellar phases includes: a) at least one anionic surfactant and b) at least one compound selected from among amphoteric surfactants and non-ionic surfactants, in which the total active material of said surfactants is between 35 and 60% by weight relative to the total weight of said composition, in which the ratio of anionic surfactant is between 0.3 and 0.9, the ratio of amphoteric surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7 and the ratio of non-ionic surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7, said ratio being the ratio between the weight percentage of active material of said surfactant in said composition and the weight percentage of total active material of said surfactants in said composition, the pH of the composition being between 4 and 8, said at least one anionic surfactant being selected from the group comprising alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, sulfonates, derivatives of phosphoric acid, phosphates and alkyl phosphates, isethionates, taurates, sulfoccinates, alkyl sulfoacetates, anionic derivatives of proteins of plant origin, amino acids and amino acid derivatives, polypeptides, carboxylic acids and the salts of same, salts of fatty acids from saponification, lactic acid derivatives and alkyl polyglucoside derivatives, and said composition being free of sodium chloride other than that which may be provided by the surfactants.

Disclosed are compositions that include a combination of natural tooth powder ingredients pressed into tablet form, and methods of making the composition, and to methods of enhancing dental hygiene that includes administration of the composition. The compositions include natural ingredients such as xylitol and at least one tooth cleaning agent, and can be formed into a tablet suitable for cleaning the teeth without the use of a toothbrush or water.

The disclosure is directed to processes and methods of reducing bloating and breakage of containers and packaging that house oral care compositions. Also contemplated are products and formulations that are produced or obtained from the processes and methods described herein.

The present invention is directed to a personal composition comprising a) a strobilurin; b) salicylic acid wherein the ratio of a:b is from about 1:1 to about 100:1; wherein there is a synergistic anti-inflammatory/cellular stress activity.

The present invention provides a hair cleansing composition comprising an anionic surfactant, a cationic polymer, a dialkyl ether, and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a compound represented by the general formula R.sup.a—O-(AlkO).sub.m—R.sup.b and a polyoxypropylene polyglyceryl ether. The hair cleansing composition has a low viscosity at low temperatures and is thereby convenient to use. In addition, the hair cleansing composition maintains basic performance (e.g., good foam quality and good foam quantity) at low temperatures, and provides sufficient smoothness when scrubbing or rinsing hair.

The hair cleansing composition according to the present invention can be provided, together with a foam discharge device, as a kit, and is applicable to a method for hair cleansing.

Compositions for application to skin of a subject comprising (a) an unsaturated organopolymer, (b) a hydride functionalized polysiloxane and (c) an environment-responsive agent that is capable of transporting out of the composition or facilitates out-transport of one or more beneficial agents from the composition after the composition is applied to a subject. Alternatively, the compositions comprise (a) a bifunctional organopolysiloxane polymer having one unsaturated group and one hydride and (b) the environment-responsive agent. The environment-responsive agent may be a volatile agent and the compositions can be used to create a thin film on the skin of a subject wherein the volatile agent is capable of transporting out of the film. In one embodiment, the volatile agent is transported out of the composition by convection. In one embodiment, the volatile agent is transported out of the composition by diffusion.
