The present invention relates to a novel structuring system comprising both xanthan gum and cross-linked polyacrylic acid polymer which combination unexpectedly has been found to provide enhanced stability for large size benefit agent droplets in an amphoteric/anionic surfactant system relative to use of either structurant alone.

Liquid cleansing compositions comprising xanthan gum and cross-linked

The present invention relates to a method of enhancing low temperature stability of lamellar structured liquid cleansing compositions comprising 5% to 50% of a surfactant system comprising (a) anionic or mixture of anionics and (b) an amphoteric and/or zwifterionic surfactant, wherein said method comprises selecting component (b) such that alkalimetal alkylamphoacetate comprises greater than 25% to 90% of said component (b).

Method of enhancing low temperature stability of liquid cleansing

An aqueous liquid cleansing and moisturizing composition comprising a base formulation and an additive formulation in which the base formulation and additive formulation are separate but combinedly dispensable from a single packaging means in a predetermined ratio as discrete domains. By adding some surfactant to additive formulation stripe, enhanced lather is obtained. Further, some surfactant is assured, even if there is uneven pumping. Finally, greater consumer control of surfactant of moisturizer levels is afforded.

Cleansing composition with separately dispensed cleansing base and

In one embodiment the present invention relates to a personal bath or shower gel system comprising (A) a light weight polymeric meshed sponge and (B) a liquid cleanser comprising (1) an effective amount of surfactants(s) and (2) a deodorant perfume. In a second embodiment, the invention relates to a method for enhancing delivery/dispersion of deodorant perfume on skin or substrate by either applying liquid to sponge and applying sponge to substrate and/or applying liquid to skin/substrate and then rubbing skin/substrate with said sponge.

Personal cleansing system comprising polymeric diamond-mesh bath sponge

An aqueous cleansing and moisturising composition comprising 5-35 wt. % C.sub.8 to C.sub.22 fatty acid; up to 10 wt. % of a surface active agent, a benefit agent having a weight average particle size in the range 15 to 500 microns and structurant. The structurant is a material which causes the composition to adopt the lamellar phase or a material which structures the continuous liquid phase or a mixture thereof. The composition is substantially free of insoluble solid fatty acid or fatty acid soap.
