A process for the preparation of a ready-to-use cosmetic, flowable cleaning agent, in which a powdered surfactant mixture is mixed with water in a specific weight ratio is described herein. A flowable cleaning agent obtainable by the process is also described.

Process for the preparation of a ready-to-use, cosmetic, flowable detergent

A cosmetic cleansing composition, which is solid at about 25&#xb0; C., is disclosed. The cosmetic cleansing composition includes up to about 90% by weight, based on a total weight of the cosmetic cleansing composition, of alkali metal salts of fatty acids (soaps), from about 1 to about 40% by weight, based on a total weight of the cosmetic cleansing composition, of amino acid surfactant(s), and from about 0.05 to about 10% by weight, based on a total weight of the cosmetic cleansing composition, of citric acid ester and/or salt(s) of citric acid.

Combar for skin and hair treatment

A cosmetic cleansing composition includes a) 0.1 to 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of the cleansing composition, of a surfactant selected from the group of anionic, non-ionic, and/or zwitterionic surfactants and mixtures thereof, b) at least one partially and/or non-neutralized, unbranched, saturated and/or unsaturated carboxylic acid with a chain length of 14 to 30 carbon atoms, and c) at least one non-ionic polymer of the formula (I) as set forth herein, where R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group and n represents a whole number value from 1,360 to 99,000. The cleansing composition has a mousse-like texture and excellent cleansing and care properties.

Cleansing composition with high fatty acid content

Cleaning compositions include at least one specific preservative combination. The cleaning compositions are used for cleaning and/or caring for the skin and/or hair, and the specific preservative combination is used for the preservation of surfactant-containing cleaning compositions.

Surfactant-containing cleaning agent compositions with specific combinations of four preservatives

Cleansing compositions include at least one special preservative combination. The cleansing compositions are used for the cleaning and/or care of skin and/or hair, and specific preservative combination is used for preserving such surfactant-containing cleansing compositions.

Surfactant-containing cleansing agents with at least four different preservatives

A composition that includes spray-dried yoghurt powder and at least one anionic surfactant and/or at least one fatty acid soap, may be used as a prebiotic for inhibiting the growth and/or the physiological activity of undesired skin bacteria and/or for obtaining desired skin bacteria. A prebiotically effective cosmetic composition includes: a) at least one fatty acid soap in a weight proportion of between 20 and 75 wt. %, preferably between 30 and 70 wt. %, particularly preferably between 40 and 65 wt. %, and in particular between 45 and 60 wt. %; and b) spray-dried yoghurt powder in a weight proportion of between 0.01 and 10 wt. %, preferably 0.02 and 7.5 wt. %, particularly preferably between 0.03 and 5 wt. %, and in particular between 0.05 and 3 wt. %, wherein the amounts relate to the total weight of the cosmetic composition.

Use of cosmetic cleaning compositions as a prebiotic

A foaming aqueous body-cleansing composition of (a) an anionic surfactant, (b) an alkyl (oligo)glycoside, (c) a zwitterionic surfactant, (d) an ampholytic surfactant is presented. The body cleansing composition produces a stable, fine-bubble, creamy-feeling foam.
