The present invention relates to a water-based cosmetic composition thickened with xanthan gum and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and having a strongly alkaline pH. to be used as an alkalizing component in a two-part oxidative hair dye.

Thickened alkalyzation component for oxidative hair dyeing product

The object of the present disclosure is a three-component kit for brightening keratinous fibers, in particular human hair, comprising a blonding powder for mild blonding of keratinous fibers with as natural ingredients as possible, containing at least one oxidizing agent, selected from the group of sodium salts and potassium salts of a peroxosulfuric acid, an oil mixture of at least one branched fatty alcohol having 8-24 carbon atoms, and at least one dialkyl ether having 6-18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, in which no ammonium compounds, no paraffin oil, no mineral oil and no silicone compounds being present in the blonding powder.

Ammonia-free bleaching kit for gentle brightening of keratinous fibers

The object of the present disclosure are agents for oxidative hair bleaching with a pH value in the range from about 10.0 to about 11.0, containing from about 70-95% by weight of water, an alkalizing agent, from about 0.1-2% by weight of anionic, zwitterionic or amphoteric surfactant, from about 0.1-1.5% by weight of sodium polyacrylate, wherein only small amounts, if any, of linear saturated alkanols having two or three hydroxy groups and from 2 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl group are included. Furthermore, no saturated and unsaturated non-alkoxylated alkanols having one hydroxy group and from 1 to 50 carbon atoms in the alk(en)yl group, no saturated and unsaturated alkanecarboxylic acids with 1 to 50 carbon atoms, no crosslinked copolymer built up from acrylic acid and non-ethoxylated esters of acrylic acid with linear C10-C30 monoalcohols as monomers and no oxidizing agents are contained.
