The present invention provides hair care compositions comprising at least 10% of one or more polydialkylsiloxanes each having at least one pendant alkyl moiety, methods of using the compositions to reduce the loss of color in the hair, methods of using the compositions to reduce the effects of oxidation on the hair, and methods of using the compositions to add volume to the hair.

Hair care compositions which reduce color loss in hair and methods of using the compositions

An oral antiplaque composition comprising an orally acceptable vehicle and an effective antiplaque amount of silver zeolite and a stabilizing amount of a chloride salt.

Color stable silver zeolite containing dentifrice compositions

Two component whitening dentifrice composition which exhibits rapid whitening of stained or discolored teeth, which composition comprises a first dentifrice component containing a peroxide compound and the second component containing Fe ion implanted silicate clay, the first and second dentifrice components being maintained separate from each other until dispensed for application to teeth requiring the removal of stain and discoloration.

Dual component oral composition having accelerated tooth whitening effect

Method for encapsulating reactive dental agents

A method for forming a striped dentifrice wherein a first dentifrice which appears unstriped when stored in a container having sidewalls at least a portion of which is transparent, is transformed into a striped dentifrice upon extrusion from the container, which method comprises storing the first dentifrice in the container provided with discharge means and striping means within the discharge means, sequentially filling the container with a striping dentifrice having a color which distinguishes the striping dentifrice from the first dentifrice, the striping dentifrice being stored in an area of the container separate from the first dentifrice, followed by filling the container with the first dentifrice, applying pressure on the dentifrices to cause the striping dentifrice to be applied to the first dentifrice within the container area in which the second dentifrice is stored and be simultaneously extruded together from the container, so that upon extrusion, the extruded dentifrice appears to have been magically transformed into a striped body.

Magically appearing striped dentifrice

A dual component antiplaque and whitening dentifrice composition in which the first component is a paste composition containing an antibacterial agent such as Triclosan and the second component contains a peroxide compound such as hydrogen peroxide in a vehicle thickened with a combination of an inorganic thickeners and an organic thickener other than an alkylene oxide polymer wherein the antiplaque and whitening efficacy of the components is unimpaired when the components are physically separated prior to use and thereafter are mixed upon application to dental tissue.

Dual component antiplaque and tooth whitening composition

A dual component tooth whitening composition is disclosed, which composition contains a peroxide whitening and a second ingredient incompatible with the peroxide compound, the second ingredient and the peroxide compound each being incorporated in separate dentifrice components which are physically separated until dispensed for use, the components retaining their original physical state when in contact, the first component being a composition containing a peroxide whitening compound in a vehicle thickened with a combination of a particulated water insoluble inorganic compound and an organic thickener other than an alkylene oxide polymer, and the second component containing the ingredient incompatible with the peroxide.

An aqueous dentifrice composition comprising an aqueous vehicle containing at least two active ingredients reactive with each other, at least one of the active ingredients being encapsulated in a substantially water immiscible, pressure rupturable shell which is rupturable during use of the dentifrice, causing the same to be released for interaction with the other active ingredient, the shell being formed from a plasticized alkyl cellulose polymer. The dentifrice exhibits increased efficacy for fluoridation of teeth when the active ingredients are soluble fluoride salt and a calcium salt encapsulated in the plasticized alkyl cellulose polymer.

Dentrifice composition containing encapsulated reactive ingredients

A striped and/or speckled dentifrice stable to color bleeding, wherein at least one dentifrice component contains a colorant entrained in a high density polyethylene matrix having a melting point range as measured by DSC is between about 110.degree. C. and about 145.degree. C., whereby on storage substantially no visually observable colorant bleeding is present in any other dentifrice component.

Striped toothpaste stable to color bleeding

A striped dentrifrice stable color bleeding, wherein at least one component contains a colorant entrained in the matrix of substantially non-fracturable, partially cross-linked melamine-urea-formaldehyde condensation polymer particles, whereby on storage the colorant does not bleed any color into any other dentifrice component. The dentifrice may also contain a formaldehyde scavenger to bind-up any formaldehyde released from the particles.
