The present invention relates to an isotropic concentrate composition that is easy to hydrate and transform into an end use wash composition. The end use wash composition resulting from the concentrate composition is suitable for topical application and for hand washing. The concentrate comprises fragrance oil and emulsifier at levels that unexpectedly result in a concentrate composition and end use composition that are free of ingredient precipitation that interferes with the appearance and usage of the compositions.

The invention relates to stable, mild and moisturizing lamellar liquid cleansing compositions which possess a lotion-like appearance conveying signals of enhanced moisturization. However, these liquids often are either unstable or cause poor lather production and other sensory deficits The use of a specific ratio of total acyl isethionates to acyl glutamates or other divalent anionic surfactant in a structured liquid product improve stability and lather production, mildness and acceptable odor.

Disclosed are methods for coloring hair, comprising applying a mixture comprising one or more hair dyes and an additive as a pre-treatment, as a simultaneous treatment, as a post-treatment, or a combination thereof.

A combination of N-acetyl-L-cysteine, selenium in the form of selenomethionine and melatonin, and a medical product or pharmaceutical composition comprising such combination, useful for the treatment of a variety of diseases and conditions is described. The combination of N-acetyl-L-cysteine, selenium in the form of selenomethionine and melatonin is also useful for cosmetic treatment of skin and as an antibacterial agent.

A hair cosmetic composition containing or being prepared by blending a component (A), a component (B), and a component (C) below: component (A): a cationic surfactant, component (B): an amphoteric surfactant, and component (C): one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of a nonionic surfactant (C1), a modified silicone having a cationic group (C2), and a sugar alcohol having 4 or more carbon atoms (C3), having a mass ratio [(B)/(A)] of 0.4 or more and 5 or less, having a content of a higher alcohol of 0.1% by mass or less, and being used by filling up a non-gas type foam discharge container, and hair cosmetics using the hair cosmetic composition are provided.

A hair conditioner composition comprising: a. an aqueous carrier; b. from about 1 wt % to about 12 wt % of BVE; and c. from about 1 wt % to about 12 wt % of at least two fatty alcohols.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) as herein defined, capable of releasing fragrant compounds in a controlled manner into the surroundings. The present invention is also concerned with a process for their production, and consumer products comprising them.

Nanoemulsions and a method for making the same are described. The nanoemulsions comprise a skin benefit agent in the water phase and they are made from two macroemulsions that have non-identical pH values.

The present invention relates to a process for coloring keratin fibers, preferably hair, comprising the steps of: (i) applying onto the keratin fibers a composition comprising (a) at least one compound chosen from alkylaminosulfonic acids and those of the formula (I) and (II), (b) at least one direct dye, and (c) at least one alkaline agent; (ii) heating the keratin fibers; and (iii) optionally rinsing and/or drying the keratin fibers. The present invention can provide superior coloring efficiency, such as color intensity and color lastingness.

The subject of the present disclosure is a process for dyeing keratinous material, in particular human hair, comprising the following steps: applying an agent (a) to the keratinous material, wherein the agent (a) comprises: (a1) at least one organic silicon compound selected from the group of silanes having one, two or three silicon atoms, and

(a2) at least one coloring compound comprising at least one effect pigment comprising α) a substrate platelet and β) a coating, wherein the coating comprises at least one layer that has been wet-chemically prepared using a metal alkoxide and an organosilicon compound having a basic group; and applying an agent (b) to the keratinous material, wherein the agent (b) comprises: (b1) at least one sealing reagent.
