A warming device consisting essentially of a heat generating main body comprising a heat generating element and an air-permeable holding member having the heat generating element enclosed therein. The warming device has a receiving part for receiving a part of a body being inserted. The heat generating element comprises a sheet which contains an oxidizable metal, a moisture-retaining agent, and a fibrous material and is prepared by papermaking.

Disclosed are styling shampoo compositions with improved styling performance, and which comprise (a) from about 5% to about 50% by weight of a surfactant component selected from the group consisting of a combination of an anionic surfactant and an amphoteric surfactant, and a combination of an anionic surfactant and a zwitterionic surfactant; (b) from about 0.025% to about 3% by weight of a cationic deposition polymer having a cationic charge density of from about 0.2 meq/gram to about 2 meq/gram and which is selected from the group consisting of cationic cellulose polymers, cationic guar gum derivatives, and mixtures thereof, (c) from about 0.5% to about 10% by weight of an organic cationic hair styling polymer having a cationic charge density of greater than about 2 meq/gram to less than about 4.75 meq/gram; and (d) from about 27% to about 94.5% by weight water. Especially effective are those styling shampoo compositions containing a combination of Polyquaternium-16 as the cationic styling polymer, Polyquaternium-10 as a cationic deposition polymer, and a surfactant matrix comprising a combination of ammonium laureth sulfate and cocoamidopropyl betaine.

Styling shampoo compositions containing cationic styling polymers and cationic deposition polymers

Provided hair styling compositions comprising: (a) from about 0.1% to about 15%, by weight, of a silicone grafted adhesive polymer, said polymer being characterized by an organic polymeric backbone having silicone macromers grafted to said backbone; (b) from about 0.5% to about 15%, by weight, of a hydrocarbon solvent selected from the group consisting of C.sub.10 -C.sub.14 branched chain hydrocarbons, and mixtures thereof; (c) a polar solvent phase comprising from about 80% to about 98.9%, by weight of the composition, of a polar solvent selected from the group consisting of water and C.sub.2 -C.sub.3 monohydric alcohols, and mixtures thereof, wherein said composition contains no more than about 15%, by weight, of C.sub.3 monohydric alcohol; wherein said organic polymer backbone is soluble in said polar solvent phase, and said silicone macromers of said hair setting polymer are soluble in said hydrocarbon solvent and insoluble in said polar solvent. In preferred embodiments, the compositions hereof additionally comprise a plasticizer for the silicone grafted hair setting polymer. Especially preferred plasticizers include acetyl tri-C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 alkyl citrates, particularly acetyl triethyl citrate.
