Provided are a multilayered cationic liposome for enhancing skin absorption, a cosmetic composition including the same, and a method of preparing the same.

A hair conditioning composition comprising: a) at least one cationic surfactant compound; b) at least one fatty acid ester of an ethoxylated alkyl glucoside; c) at least one nonionic, amphiphilic, emulsion polymer; d) an aqueous carrier; and optionally, e) at least one other auxiliary conditioning agent different than (a) said other conditioning agent is selected from a silicone, a hydrocarbon oil, a natural oil, an ester oil, a cationic compound, a cationic polymer, and combinations thereof.

A personal care 100% plant derived, biodegradable solid granules that sustain beneficial essential oils, and or plant/herbal extracts and emulsify in water to create an emulsified therapeutic solution is disclosed. This invention improves over existing liquids in that its solid granule form is completely plant derived and biodegradable and can sustain essential oils and antioxidants without the requirement of chemical preservatives, and can be packaged in eco-friendly water soluble film and compostable paper. It improves over existing solid forms in that it is a 100% water soluble granule that emulsifies easily in water to form an easy to use liquid product.

The present disclosure relates to gentle cleansing compositions, which generally include: (a) a taurate surfactant; (b) an isethionate surfactant; (c) a betaine (and/or another amphoteric surfactant); and (d) a nonionic emulsifier. The cleansing compositions exhibit very good cleansing properties, are particularly effective for removing makeup, and are mild and moisturizing to the skin.

Flexible, dissolvable, porous solid sheet articles which include direct-added microcapsules therein for delivering a benefit agent and a process for making such solid sheet articles.

Esteramine compositions and their derivatives are disclosed. The esteramines comprise a reaction product of a metathesis-derived C.sub.10-C.sub.17 monounsaturated acid, octadecene-1,18-dioic acid, or their ester derivatives with a tertiary alkanolamine. Derivatives made by quaternizing, sulfonating, alkoxylating, sulfating, and/or sulfitating the esteramines are also disclosed. In one aspect, the ester derivative of the C.sub.10-C.sub.17 monounsaturated acid or octadecene-1,18-dioic acid is a lower alkyl ester. In other aspects, the ester derivative is a modified triglyceride made by self-metathesis of a natural oil or an unsaturated triglyceride made by cross-metathesis of a natural oil with an olefin. The esteramines and derivatives are valuable for a wide variety of end uses, including cleaners, fabric treatment, hair conditioning, personal care (liquid cleansing products, conditioning bars, oral care products), antimicrobial compositions, agricultural uses, and oil field applications.

A deodorizing cosmetic agent in the form of an aqueous emulsion which includes: at least one quaternary ammonium compound and ethylhexyl glycerol,
wherein the deodorizing cosmetic agent does not include any aluminum-containing compounds, use and methods associated therewith, using such an agent.

A deodorizing cosmetic agent in the form of an aqueous emulsion, including: at least one quaternary ammonium compound, and at least one menthol ester, wherein the deodorizing cosmetic agent does not include any aluminum-containing compounds; use thereof, and methods using said agent.

Disclosed are oral care compositions having reduced tooth staining propensity and comprising in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a cationic antimicrobial agent and an anti-stain agent comprising one or more materials from each of at least two of the following chemical groups: Group 1. anionic agents, Group 2. aldehydes, ketones, and other reactive carbonyl compounds and Group 3. nonionic ethoxylated surfactants. Examples of cationic antimicrobial agent include quaternary ammonium compounds such as cetylpyridinium chloride, cetyl pyridinium fluoride, tetradecylpyridinium chloride, N-tetradecyl-4-ethyl pyridinium chloride and domiphen bromide; chlorhexidine; and metal ion sources to supply metal ions such as stannous, zinc or copper.

A method of combatting colour loss from a dyed material, the method comprising contacting the material with a composition comprising an amine salt of a carboxylic acid wherein the carboxylic acid has 4 to 10 carbon atoms.
