The invention provides process for making wet skin treatment compositions for use during bathing. The compositions are activated by water and retained efficiently on skin. The compositions impart desirable benefits to skin, are perceived to absorb quickly on wet skin, and leave the skin feeling clean, but non-greasy.

Process for making wet-skin treatment compositions

The invention provides methods of enhancing moisture or reducing drying using wet skin treatment composition. These compositions are activated by water and retained efficiently on skin. Thus, the compositions (and methods used) impart desirable benefits to skin, are perceived to absorb quickly on wet skin and leave the skin feeling clean, but non-greasy.

The present invention relates to a process for making a multiphase personal wash bar having artisan crafted appearance. The bars are made by combining the second solid mass phase to a first continuous phase wherein the hardness of the second phase is at least twice the hardness of noodles forming the continuous phase.

Extruded multiphase bars exhibiting artisan-crafted appearance

The present invention relates to methods of cleansing and moisturizing skin using multiphase extruded soap bar achieving hardness of a discontinuous phase is at least two times the hardness of a continuous phase in which it is found.

The invention provides personal wash compositions with soap like rinsability. The composition contains a lathering surfactant system and a specifically defined polymer/oil blend.

Mild moisturizing liquids with soap-like rinse feel comprising polymer/oil blend

The invention provides a single chamber transparent or translucent package and personal product composition where when standing, the product forms 2 or more visibly distinct phases and, when agitated, the composition forms a visible single phase.

Separating multi-phase personal wash composition in a transparent or translucent package

The present invention teaches liquid sunscreen compositions in which level of surfactant is higher than level at which the sunscreen component(s) are still soluble in the surfactant in which they are used; and which comprise minimal levels of cationic polymer. Combination of cationic polymer (especially preferred surfactants and at minimum levels) and minimal levels of sunscreen lead to compositions with minimal levels of deposition and minimal SPF. Further, the compositions also maintain good lather.

Liquid sunscreen compositions which both deposit and lather well

The invention discloses bars comprising fatty acid soaps, free fatty acid, polyalkylene glycol and specific salts of protic acid (i.e., having pKa1 less than 6, preferably less than 5.5). Using specific equivalent molar ratios of free fatty acid to protic acid salt and specific wt. ratio of free fatty acid to PAG and salt of protic acid, applicants obtain bars having sensory feel of soap and which improve skin condition is measured in Controlled Application Wash Test.

Bar comprising soap, fatty acid, polyalkylene glycol and protic acid salts in critical ratios and providing enhanced skin care benefits

An aqueous detergent composition, which is in the form of a thickened, mobile fluid, comprising foaming detergent and a polymer or polymer mixture which is capable of forming a reversible gel, which polymer or mixture is present in the composition as a multiplicity of individual gel particles.

Detergent compositions

The present invention relates to skin care or personal wash cleanser compositions comprising mixtures of short and long-chain alpha-hydroxy acid esters in order to obtain long term benefit of shorter esters while masking short term drying effect of short chain esters.

Benefit agent compositions comprising mixtures of &agr;-hydroxy esters
