A cosmetic, dermatological and/or pharmaceutical composition, in particular for topical use, in the form of a dispersion of a discontinuous internal phase in a continuous external phase. One of the phases is an aqueous phase and the other is an oily phase. The composition contains a polyacrylic polymer and a consistency factor. The composition is free of surfactant and of preservative. A method for preparing the composition includes mixing the aqueous phase and the oily phase so as to form a homogeneous dispersion. The dispersion thus formed is sterilized by ultra-high temperature infusion sterilization.

The invention comprises an emulsifier-free, skin-conditioning, cosmetic or dermatological preparation having a granular structure, characterized by contents of fatty alcohols and wax or paraffin for use on wet skin. The preparation is characterized by a special production method, which in turn only brings about the advantageous properties of a skin conditioning.

A water-soluble pouch for hair care with a water-soluble fibrous facing sheet and a water-soluble backing sheet. The facing sheet and backing sheet are joined by a seal along at least a portion of the perimeter. A plurality of hair conditioner prills are disposed within the internal volume. The prills can include both cationic surfactant and fatty alcohol and can have a melting point greater than 45°.

Disclosed are oral care compositions comprising an abrasive, cocamidopropyl betaine and an amine fluoride (e.g., olaflur (N′-octadecyltrimethylenediamine-N,N,N′-tris(2-ethanol)-dihydrofluoride)) or amine base plus fluoride, wherein the abrasive is present in an amount of from 16% to 30% by weight of the composition and wherein cocamidopropyl betaine is present in an amount of from 1.1% to 2% by weight of the composition, as well as methods of using these compositions.

Described herein, a water-soluble personal cleansing product, its uses, methods and kit, preferably a water-soluble facial cleansing product, comprising a water-soluble fibrous structure; wherein the water-soluble fibrous structure comprises a plurality of fibrous elements; wherein the plurality of fibrous elements comprises: one or more fibrous element-forming materials comprising one or more hydroxyl polymers comprising a natural starch and/or a modified starch; wherein the plurality of fibrous elements is substantially free of surfactant; wherein the water-soluble personal cleansing product comprises one or more surfaces wherein the one or more surfaces are coated with an oily composition, wherein the oily composition comprises one or more oil ingredients. Alternatively, the one or more surfaces are coated with a cleansing composition comprising one or more surfactants; and wherein the cleansing composition is substantially free of alkyl sulfate and alkyl ether sulfate type of surfactants.

The present invention relates to the use of an aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic gel of synthetic phyllosilicate of formula Mg.sub.3Si.sub.4O.sub.10(OH).sub.2 in a cosmetic composition.

A cosmetic composition comprising such a gel and also cosmetic processes for caring for and/or making up the skin and/or the nails using such an aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic gel of synthetic phyllosilicate are also targeted.

Fabric care compositions comprising bi-modal water continuous emulsions are disclosed. In particular, the fabric care compositions comprise a bi-modal water continuous emulsion (E) comprising at least 70 weight percent of: a first dispersed phase containing a hydrophobic oil, wherein the hydrophobic oil is provided as a non-emulsified hydrophobic oil, and a second dispersed phase containing a silicone, wherein the silicone is provided from a water continuous silicone emulsion containing at least one surfactant. The fabric care compositions further comprise at least one fabric care ingredient (F). Optionally, the fabric care ingredient (F) is in an acceptable medium. Preparation methods and uses of the fabric care compositions are also disclosed.

The present disclosure is broadly concerned with petrolatum-based compositions as a suspension matrix for the active ingredients. The disclosure is also concerned with processes for forming stable emulsions of active ingredients in petrolatum.

An object of the invention is to provide a novel complex or an emulsified composition that can be used as an emulsifier. A complex formed by bonding an amide alcohol and a carboxy group-containing polymer exerts an excellent water-in-oil type or oil-in-water type emulsifying power.

The present invention is directed to a personal care composition comprising from about 6% to about 50% of one or more sulfate free surfactants; and from about 0.02% to about 10% of azoxystrobin.
