The instant disclosure relates to hair treatment compositions that provide brightening, shine, luster, and cleanliness and/or conditioning to hair, wherein the hair treatment compositions include: (a) ascorbyl glucoside; (b) an amino acid chelant; (c) N,N-dicarboxymethyl glutamic acid, a salt thereof, and/or a combination thereof; (d) one or more surfactants; and (e) water. Also disclosed are methods for using the hair treatment compositions, for example, for enhancing brightness, shine, luster, and cleanliness and/or conditioning of the hair.

A stable shampoo composition that is substantially free of sulfated surfactants and lacks an in situ coacervate. The shampoo composition contains an inorganic salt and a cationic polymer having a charge density greater than 0.6 meq/g. The shampoo composition has a ratio of polymer charge density to inorganic salt of 1.2:1 to 2:1. The shampoo composition can be stable and can lack in situ coacervate.

A clear cleansing composition directed to from about 3 wt % to about 35 wt % of an anionic surfactant; from about 5 wt % to about 15% of an amphoteric surfactant; from about 0.01 wt % to about 2 wt % of a cationic polymer; from about 0 wt % to about 1.0 wt % of inorganic salts; from about 0.01% to about 10% of a hydroxamic acid or hydroxamic acid derivative; an aqueous carrier, wherein the composition is substantially free of sulfate based surfactant and wherein the composition has a % T value of greater than about 70.

A cleansing composition directed to from about 3 wt % to about 35 wt % of an anionic surfactant; from about 5 wt % to about 15% of an amphoteric surfactant; from about 0.01 wt % to about 2 wt % of a cationic polymer; from about 0 wt % to about 1.0 wt % of inorganic salts; from about 0.01% to about 10% of a hydroxamic acid or hydroxamic acid derivative; an aqueous carrier, wherein the composition is substantially free of sulfate based surfactant.

Disclosed is a composition comprising at least one core-shell microcapsule in a suspending medium. The microcapsule comprises a core and a shell around said core. The shell comprises a hyperbranched polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of amylopectins, dextrins, hyperbranched starches, glycogen and phytoglycogen and mixtures thereof.

The object of the present application is a solid composition for use in cosmetics, comprising at least one modified starch carrying at least one hydrophobic and/or amphiphilic functional group, at least one modified starch carrying at least one hydrophilic functional group, at least one gum of microbial or fungal origin, and at least two plant-based gums. Such a composition has emulsifying and texturing properties.

The present invention is comprised in the cosmetic and/or therapeutic industry and specifically relates to a new composition for topical use with antioxidant and hydrating activity which promotes wound healing and is useful in therapeutic and/or cosmetic treatment, as well as in the prevention of skin lesions.

The novel composition object of the present invention incorporates certain agents and ingredients, among which are carotenoids and the galactomannans, which surprisingly improve the healing and curing activity in a broad spectrum of wounds occurring with the presence of reactive oxygen species.

A galactomannan degradation product wherein a molecular weight distribution thereof satisfies the following requirements: a molecular weight of 12,000 or more is from 1 to 32%; a molecular weight of from 300 to 3,000 is from 25 to 60%; and a maximum of peak intensity in the molecular weight patterns of high-performance liquid chromatography exists within the range of a molecular weight of from 4,000 to 14,000. The galactomannan degradation product of the present invention can be used in various foodstuff, cosmetics, and the like.
