This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising arginine or lysine, zinc citrate and zinc oxide, fluoride source, and a silica abrasive which exhibits an acid pH when measured as an aqueous slurry as well as to methods of using and of making these compositions.

The present specification discloses compositions comprising one or more encapsulates comprising one or more agents and methods and uses for the disclosed agents. A composition disclosed herein can be incorporated into a body wash, an after shower body lotion, a shampoo, a conditioner, a soap, a gel, a hand sanitizer, a cream, a spray, a mouse, a lotion, an ointment, a make-up product, a lip balm, a hair spray product, an arachnid/insect repellent or a medicinal product.

Water-soluble refill dose articles for forming a cleanser have a water-soluble film defining a first compartment enclosing a first composition and a second compartment enclosing a second composition, which are individual separate articles or are part of an integral article. The first composition has a rheology modifier, a first surfactant, 10% or less by weight water, 20% or less by weight glycol, and the first surfactant does not activate the rheology modifier. The second compartment has an alkaline substance that when mixed with the first composition and water activates the rheology modifier to increase the viscosity of a resulting cleanser and 10% or less by weight water. When the article is diluted in water at a 1:1 to 1:20 ratio, it produces a cleanser having a viscosity within a range of 2000 cps to 50,000 cps.

A kit for the production of an antimicrobial foam includes: a) a liquid composition which includes a1)one or more bispyridinium alkane and a2)one or more surfactants selected from non-ionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants and cation-active surfactants, wherein the composition is formulated so that a foam can be produced therefrom, and b) a device for producing the foam from the composition. By using the bispyridinium alkanes the foam stability of liquid and surfactant-containing compositions is increased.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising one or more cationic surfactants, one or more amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactants, one or more silicones, one or more cationic polymers, one or more fatty alcohols and one or more clays. The invention also relates to a cosmetic process for washing keratin fibres using this composition. Finally, the invention relates to the use of such a composition for washing keratin fibres.

A personal care composition is provided, comprising: a vehicle; a surfactant; a water-soluble cellulose ether base material substituted with a hydrophobic group having a carbon chain with 8 to 15 carbon atoms; wherein the water-soluble cellulose ether base material has a weight average molecular weight, M.sub.w, of >800,000 Daltons; and, wherein the body wash formulation contains <0.01 wt % alkyl sulfate and <0.01 wt % alkyl ether sulfate.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising: (a) at least one linear olefin sulfonate; (b) at least one glycerin fatty acid ester; and (c) at least one amphoteric surfactant. The composition according to the present invention can have no irritation or reduced irritation, and superior foam quality, and may be stable, in particular stable over time and/or under elevated temperature. The composition according to the present invention may preferably be a cosmetic composition, and more preferably a cleansing composition, such as a shampoo.

The present disclosure relates to gentle cleanser compositions, which generally include: (a) a taurate surfactant; (b) salicylic acid; (c) kaolin; d) a betaine (and/or another amphoteric surfactant) and e) an emollient. The cleanser compositions exhibit very good cleansing properties, are particularly effective for removing makeup, and are mild and moisturizing to the skin, with a good deposition of salicylic acid.

Disclosed herein are dentifrices comprising a zinc amino acid halide, which provide a precipitate of zinc oxide upon use with dilution with water and/or saliva. Methods of making and using the dentifrices are also provided.
