Described herein is a powdered soap comprising a plurality of particles, each of the particles comprising a polyquat, a clay, and a fatty component.

This invention relates to a soap bar composition which provides enhanced delivery of water soluble skin benefit agents such that the desired activity of the benefit agent is observed for a long time post the wash. This is achieved by absorbing/coating the benefit agent on to specific clays followed by further coating with a hydrophobic material selected from wax or petrolatum.

A water soluble pellet for releasing one or more actives including a vegetable soap carrier in an amount of 10-95 wt %; a perfume oil in an amount of 2-12 wt %; and a dye in an amount of 0.001 to 0.5 wt %. The method for manufacturing the water soluble pellet includes the following steps: mixing the composition; extruding the composition; and cutting the extruded composition to form water soluble pellets.

The present invention relates to a soap bar composition. It more particularly relates to a soap bar composition which comprises low amount of soap where high amount of water can be incorporated. This is achieved by including a selective polymer therein. The soap bars of the invention are easy to extrude and stamp.

Provided is a cleaner composition which causes no malfunction due to clogging even when contained in a pump foamer container, or the like, and repeatedly used, and is excellent in resilience and persistence of foam, and feeling after washing off. The cleaner composition includes a soap that is obtained by neutralizing a higher fatty acid with sodium N-methyltaurate, and a polymer including dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride as a monomer unit and having a molecular weight of 200000 or less.

In one aspect is disclosed a cleansing composition comprising: (i) a surfactant; (ii) an oligodynamic metal or ions thereof; (iii) a chelating agent; and, a polymer having a group comprising a site having one or more lone pair of electrons wherein, said surfactant is soap. The polymer having a group comprising a site having one or more lone pair of electrons enhances the antimicrobial efficacy of the oligodynamic metal.

The aim of the invention is to improve the primary detergent power of detergents and cleaning products, in particular with respect to soiling containing oil and/or grease. For this purpose, polymers comprising N-vinyl imidazole-derived betaine units are incorporated into the products.

The present invention relates to an extruded soap bar composition. It more particularly relates to a soap bar composition which comprises low amount of soap where high amount of water can be incorporated. This is achieved by including selective amount of a mixture of sodium or calcium silicate and an acrylic/acrylate polymer, wherein the soap bar comprises 0.01 to 0.7 wt % of the polymer. The soap bars of the invention are easy to extrude and has acceptable product hardness.

A personal cleansing soap bar composition is provided, comprising: a soap; an aqueous ethylene acrylic acid copolymer dispersion; a silicone copolymer emulsion with an internal phase viscosity at 25° C. of ≥100×10.sup.6 mm.sup.2/sec; wherein the personal cleansing soap bar is a solid.
