A hairspray composition is provided with improved combability, spray efficiency and anti-foaming properties. The hairspray includes a film-forming resin, a carrier such as ethanol and a small level of a propoxylated non-ethoxylated silicone copolyol.

Silicone copolyol formulated hairspray compositions

A hairspray composition is described that includes a nonionic polymer and an anionic polymer. The nonionic polymer is formed from monomers having at least one unneutralized carboxylic acid. The anionic polymer is identical to the nonionic one, except that all of the carboxylic acid groups are in salt form. Advantageously, the composition further includes an acrylic resin, most especially an amphoteric one. Best results are achieved when the acrylic resin is neutralized with a relatively small cation such as potassium and a second cation of a water soluble fatty amine. These compositions employ water as the carrier and dimethyl ether as propellant.

Sprayable hair treatment composition

A polish-lacquer remover is provided that includes a volatile organic solvent, a C.sub.4 -C.sub.30 diester and water. Preferably, the combination further includes an alkylene carbonate. The compositions achieve low volatile organic chemical emissions, excellent lacquer removal and exhibit improved conditioning for cuticles and nails.

Nail polish remover

A sprayable cosmetic product is provided packaged in a clear bottle capable of withstanding at least 5 psig pressure fitted with a spray nozzle. The cosmetic composition contained therein is a clear, single-phase fluid containing a dialkyl ether/hydrocarbon as propellant system and a concentrate which requires a surfactant and optimally may contain a coupling agent. When present, the coupling agent is a propoxylated adduct of mono or polyhydric alcohols. Upon activation of the spray nozzle, a thick, creamy mousse is expressed. These compositions will preferably have a pH ranging from about 3.0 to 6.5.

Stable single-phase self-foaming cleanser

An aerosol composition packaged in a steel can is described. The composition includes water, a propellant and as a corrosion inhibitor, a small amount of ammonium benzoate. The corrosion inhibitor can further be supplemented with ammonium hydroxide.

Aerosol spray steel can dispensers with corrosion inhibitors

An apparatus and process is provided for shaping an end of a solid cosmetic stick. In the process the cosmetic stick is conveyed to a trimming station provided with a rotatable knife and a camming device. The device directs contact of the stick and knife over a nonlinear cutting path. The knife is rotated along the stick to remove portions thereof in a preselected fashion controlled by the camming device.

Apparatus and process for forming a cosmetic stick

A clear gel composition is provided which includes a polyhydric alcohol, a soap, an alkoxylate copolymer and a fragrance. For purposes of maintaining clarity, the fragrance will contain at most 25% of total ester compounds by weight of the fragrance.

Clear cosmetic sticks with compatible fragrance components

A malodor-reducing composition is provided for application to a human body. The composition includes an unscented malodor counteractant deoperfume mixture encapsulated within a semi-permeable wall material, a non-encapsulated fragrant perfume mixture imparting a distinct fragrance character, and a cosmetically acceptable vehicle.

Deodorant/antiperspirant products with fragrance and encapsulated odor

A clear cosmetic stick is provided whose composition includes from about 10 to 90% of a polyhydric alcohol, from about 1 to about 40% of a soap, from about 1 to about 40% of an alkoxylate copolymer having the formula:

Clear cosmetic sticks

Nail polish compositions comprising pigment material, and film forming material, wherein the pigment material is present in amounts not less than about 2.0% by weight and said nail polish composition has a Newtonian viscosity not greater than about 600 cps.

Nail coating compositions having high pigment content and low viscosity

Process for preparing nail coating compositions

Various surfaces are polished by buffing with compositions comprising a foamed polymeric material and a finely divided abrasive material. The abrasive material has a particle size number and a valley abrasion number the product of which falls within a predetermined range sufficient to provide good polishing upon buffing. Such compositions can be fashioned into articles of manufacture which are capable of buffing various surfaces.
