A stable shampoo composition containing a surfactant system that is substantially free of sulphated surfactants, a cationic polymer, and a sclerotium gum thickener. The shampoo can have a viscosity greater than 2500 cP and a pH greater than 5.5.

The invention relates to a cosmetic process for treating keratin fibers, preferably the hair, comprising at least the steps consisting in: a) applying to said keratin fibers a composition containing at least one substance chosen from fatty substances, non-silicone polymers and surfactants, b) applying a mechanical tension to said keratin fibers, and c) exposing said keratin fibers under mechanical tension to microwaves, at a pressure ranging from 50,000 to 250,000 Pa, in the presence of at least one solvent in vapor form on contact with the keratin fibers and without there being complete drying of the keratin fibers throughout the entire exposure to the microwaves, the solvent(s) in vapor form being entirely generated by evaporating at least one compound present, before emission of the microwaves, on contact with the keratin fibers, step a) taking place prior to step c).

Embodiments described herein relate generally to apparatus, methods and systems for low energy processing of consumer personal hygiene products (PHPs) and formulations of the same. In some embodiments, a method of manufacturing a consumer PHP comprises combining a first material and second material at room temperature to form a first mixture, mixing the first mixture at room temperature, adding a third material at room temperature to form a second mixture; mixing the second mixture at room temperature, adding a fourth material at room temperature to form a third mixture; and mixing the third mixture at room temperature. In some embodiments, the third material and the fourth material can be mixed to form the second mixture and the first mixture and second mixture can be combined to form the third mixture. In some embodiments, the mixing can be accomplished using a propeller mixer. In some embodiments, the propeller mixer can be rotated at a speed of greater than about 200 rpm during at least one of the mixing steps. In some embodiments, the pH of the third mixture can be adjusted to between about 4.5 and about 6.5 using an acidifier. In some embodiments, the viscosity of the third mixture can be adjusted to between about 100 cP and about 25,000 cP using a thickener.

The invention relates to a powder for use in a powder jet device for cleaning teeth, wherein the powder comprises granules having an average particle size of 20 μm to 220 μm and the granules comprise primary particles and a binder, wherein the primary particles have an average particle size smaller than the average particle size of the granules. The invention also relates to a process for preparing the powder and the use of the powder for cleaning teeth.

The present invention relates to an enzyme having α-1,6-glucosyl transfer activity, which can use a partially degraded starch product as a substrate and is heat resistant and suitable for industrial applications; an enzyme preparation for use in manufacturing α-1,6-glucan, comprising the enzyme as an active ingredient; and a method for manufacturing α-1,6-glucan using the enzyme or enzyme preparation. The present invention provides an enzyme having α-1,6-glucosyl transfer activity, which is any one of proteins (a), (b), and (c): (a) a protein consisting of an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3; (b) a protein consisting of an amino acid sequence having at least 90% amino acid sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3; and (c) a protein consisting of an amino acid sequence in which one or several amino acid(s) have been substituted, inserted, deleted and/or added in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3.

The production of a cosmetic cake (8) is described, consisting of a base supporting and anchoring layer (6) and an overlapping cosmetic product layer (4), wherein said base layer (6) is formed using a dried and solidified aqueous mixture of only natural non-synthetic ingredients.

There is described the manufacturing of a support (6) for cosmetic products, which consists of a dry and solidified set of a mixture consisting of non-synthetic ingredients of natural origin only. The support can be manufactured so as to form a base for supporting and anchoring a cosmetic product inside a container (9) or a biodegradable container in the shape of a rigid and self-supporting cosmetic wafer for anhydrous or gel cosmetic products.
