A pearlizing composition containing: (a) from about 30 to 55% by weight of a pearlizing wax; (b) a nonionic emulsifier; (c) optionally, a zwitterionic emulsifier; (d) from about 0.1 to 5% by weight of a polyol ester; and (e) water, all weights being based on the weight of the composition, and wherein the sum of (a)+(b)+(c) is at least about 55% by weight, based on the weight of the composition, and wherein the sum of (b)+(c) is less than about 25% by weight, based on the weight of the composition, and wherein (b) and (d) are present in the composition in a ratio by weight of from about 5:1 to 10:1.

Highly concentrated, free-flowing pearly lustre concentrates

A process for enhancing skin, mucous membranes and textile compatibility with an anionic surfactant composition involving: (a) providing an anionic surfactant composition; (b) providing an acid selected from the group consisting of a hydroxycarboxylic acid, a salt of a hydroxycarboxylic acid, an ester of a hydroxycarboxylic acid with an ethoxylated alcohol, and mixtures thereof; and (c) mixing (a) and (b).

Surfactant preparations comprising &#x3b1;-hydroxy acids

A pearlizing composition containing: (a) from about 20 to 45% by weight of a pearlizing wax; (b) from about 0.1 to 6% by weight of an anionic surfactant; (c) from about 0.1 to 8% by weight of a polyol ester; (d) optionally, a surfactant selected from the group consisting of a zwitterionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and mixtures thereof; and (e) water, all weights being based on the weight of the composition, and wherein (a) and (c) are present in the composition in a ratio by weight of from about 12:1 to 7:1, and wherein (c) and (b) are present in the composition in a ratio by weight of from about 2:1 to 0.8:1.
