A bar soap composition is made from ingredients comprising: at least one cleanser chosen from soap and a first surfactant; and at least one taurate surfactant chosen from a salt of a fatty acid amide of taurine, a salt of a fatty acid amide of N-methyl taurine, and combinations thereof. The taurate surfactant is different than the first surfactant. The composition is in a solid bar form. Other personal care and home care products that include the taurate surfactants are also disclosed.

The present invention discloses a method of preparing a bactericidal, fungicidal and anti-allergenic Zanthoxylum schinifolium skin care soap, wherein the bactericidal, fungicidal and anti-allergenic Zanthoxylum schinifolium skin care soap comprises the following components based on percentage by weight: Component A: Zanthoxylum schinifolium seed oil 15.0-21.0%, propylene glycol 12.0-17.0%, glycerin 6.0-11.0%, Component B: deionized water 5.0-8.0%, sodium alkyl ether sulfate AES 8.0-12.0%, Component C: lauric acid 5.0-8.0%, stearic acid 11.0-16.0%, Component D: 98% NaOH 2.5-4.5%, deionized water balance, Component E: Zanthoxylum schinifolium essential oil 0.3-0.8%. The skin care soap of the present invention is pale yellow and translucent, has good stability, provides great aroma and rich foam, and can nourish the skin and sterilize effectively.

A series of natural soaps, both liquid and solid, and methods of making thereof, which have a synergistic effect when formulated with anti-redeposition ingredients in laundry applications both in synthetic and natural textiles and fabrics. The fatty acids and/or natural oils based series of natural soaps include both sodium and potassium soap products that interact synergistically with, preferably, known, natural anti-redeposition agents and alkaline builders creating highly effective, natural solid (bar or powdered) and liquid laundry cleaning products. Solid forms soaps are dried to an acceptable amount of moisture content for milling. Further blending is then performed with various natural anti-redeposition agents or natural products which exhibit said characteristics and/or alkaline builders. The solid forms may be formed into single dose tablets. Effervescent additives may further be included.

A solid block detergent composition is described which can be dispensed with a water spray to form an aqueous detergent for cutting and removing grease, removing and suspending soils and rinsing easily leaving cleaned ware. The solid block detergent contains a neutralized sulfonated anionic surfactant in combination with various processing aids to optimize soil removal in a formulation that can be pressed for form a solid.

The present invention is in the field of washing and cleaning agents and relates to a fragranced shaped body, including a composition obtained by bringing the following components into contact: (a) at least one gelling agent having a molar mass of <2000 g/mol and (b) at least one fragrance. The invention also relates to a washing or cleaning agent, including the fragranced shaped body according to the invention, a method for producing the fragranced shaped body according to the invention and the use of the fragranced shaped body according to the invention for fragrancing surfaces.

Disclosed in certain embodiments are compositions for malodor reduction in fabric and methods for reducing malodor in fabric.

A method for managing hard soap bar consumption is disclosed. In one embodiment, a first portion of the hard soap bar surface remains exposed to allow that portion of the soap bar surface to interface with the water as a traditional soap bar, and a second portion of the soap bar surface is configured to receive a hydro-phobic and oleo-phobic coated film that prevents the soap bar material below the film from interacting with the water. The oleo-phobic coating also prevents oil particles (and their associated germs) from attaching to the surface of the membrane. In this embodiment, only the first portion of the soap bar material is interfacing (being used) while the soap bar material below the second portion is not interfacing and thus remains hard and intact. As the soap bar material in the first portion is being used, the membrane along the planar outer perimeter edge is also gradually fading.

A solid block detergent composition is described which can be dispensed with a water spray to form an aqueous detergent for cutting and removing grease, removing and suspending soils and rinsing easily leaving cleaned ware. The solid block detergent contains a neutralized sulfonated anionic surfactant in combination with various processing aids to optimize soil removal in a formulation that can be pressed for form a solid.

Detergent compositions designed to prevent aluminum discoloration while providing high cleaning performance on soils and stains are disclosed. Detergent compositions substantially free of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) are disclosed. Methods of using the detergent compositions are also disclosed.
