The present invention relates to a process for treating keratin fibers, comprising the application to the keratin fibers of a composition (C) comprising at least one (poly)carbodiimide compound, at least one aqueous dispersion of particles of polymer(s) chosen from polyurethanes, acrylic polymers, and mixtures thereof, optionally at least one silicone, and at least one coloring agent chosen from pigments, direct dyes, and mixtures thereof.

The hand sanitizer may be a hand foam sanitizer or a hand gel sanitizer. Each of the hand sanitizers includes at least one stabilizing agent, at least one skin care agent, and a volume of disinfecting micelle capsules suspended therein. Each disinfecting capsule has a polymer shell which defines a hollow core. The polymer shell includes an antimicrobial material. The antimicrobial material may have a concentration of between 0.5 wt % and 95 wt % of the polymer shell. In order to make the hand foam sanitizer, at least one foaming agent is added to produce a foam by air foaming. The hollow core of each disinfecting capsule may be filled with a material, such as at least one disinfectant, at least one fragrance, at least one supplemental skin care agent, or combinations thereof.
