A personal care composition is provided with a silicone compound and being aesthetically modified for improved skinfeel with a quaternary ammonium salt, the salt having a structure AB, wherein A is a cationic charged component, B is an anionic charged component, and A has one quaternized nitrogen atom, at least two hydroxyl groups and a molecular weight no higher than about 250.

Personal care compositions with silicones and dihydroxypropyl trialkyl ammonium salts

The invention relates to wet skin treatment compositions having specific gum and acrylate dispersion stabilizer systems providing enhanced rheology (e.g., lotion-like rheology and spreadability) relative to other wet skin compositions.

Wet-skin treatment compositions using specific gum and acrylate systems for enhanced rheology

A personal care composition is provided formulated with glycerin and a moisturization enhancing agent which is a salt of structure AB, wherein A is a cationic charged component, B is an anionic charged component, and A has at least one quaternized nitrogen atom and at least two hydroxyl groups and a molecular weight no higher than about 400.

Personal care compositions with glycerin and hydroxypropyl quaternary ammonium salts

A towelette product is provided which includes a first water-insoluble substrate having dorsal and ventral surfaces, a second water-insoluble substrate having dorsal and ventral surfaces, the dorsal surfaces of the first and second substrates being joined to one another. A personal care composition is deposited onto an area of the second ventral surface, the first ventral surface having a dry-to-the-touch feel, the second ventral surface on the deposit area having a non-dry-to-the-touch feel, the first ventral surface having a FTV of not higher than 0.1 grams.

Personal care towelette article

A personal care product is provided which includes a composition a quaternary ammonium salt wherein a cation of the salt is a dihydroxypropyltri(C&#x2013;Calkyl)ammonium monosubstituted polyol in a carrier. The cation should have a molecular weight no higher than about 450 and the salt have a Tno higher than about 10&#xb0; C. Particularly preferred are hydroxypropyltrimonium sorbitol salts. These salts operate as humectants to moisturize both in high and low relative humidity environments.

An adhesive strip, particularly for application to the nose, is provided which includes a holding member layer and deposited thereon a cosmetic material layer. Structurally the strip includes an upper edge and lower edge. A centrally located receding portion is featured along the upper edge and is flanked on either side by a continuously curving wing portion extending to a respective side edge of the strip. Along the lower edge is a centrally located downwardly projecting portion flanked on each side by downwardly sloping wing portions. The shape is designed to avoid discomfort associated with known strips when they are peeled away from the membrane areas immediately below the eye.

Cosmetic adhesive strip

A cosmetic product is provided for removing keratotic skin plugs. The product includes a flexible non-occlusive substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an anionic or nonionic polymer is deposited. The composition is treated to become dry non-tacky to the touch yet upon being wetted for use the composition again turns tacky and mobile. The method of application involves either directly moistening the product or indirectly moistening by first wetting a consumer's face in an area where the product is applied. Thereafter, water is allowed to evaporate leaving a film to which the keratotic plugs are bonded. The film is then peeled away concommittingly removing the plugs.

Cosmetic product for removal of keratotic plugs from skin pores

A cosmetic product is provided for removing keratotic skin plugs. The product is a strip sealed for storage having from 0.0001 to 2% fragrance within the atmosphere of the sealed pouch. The strip includes a flexible substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an adhesive polymer is deposited. Fragrance is immediately available upon opening the pouch. Since fragrance is invested on outer surfaces of the strip, a user can immediately smell the scent upon the application of the strip to the nose or other facial areas. There is no longer dependence for release of fragrance held within the adhesive polymer composition.

Fragranced cosmetic product for removal of keratotic plugs from skin

A cosmetic product is provided for removing keratotic skin plugs. The product is a strip sealed for storage having 2 to 12% moisture within a pouch. The strip includes a flexible substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an adhesive polymer is deposited. The composition is treated to become dry non-tacky to the touch yet upon being wetted for use the composition again turns tacky and mobile. The method of application involves either directly moistening the product or indirectly moistening by first wetting a consumer's face in an area where the product is applied. Thereafter, water is allowed to evaporate leaving a film to which the keratotic plugs are bonded. The film is then peeled away concommittingly removing the plugs.

A cosmetic product is provided for delivery of skin actives through adhesive strips which concurrently remove keratotic plugs from skin pores. The product is a strip including a flexible substrate sheet onto which a composition containing an adhesive polymer is deposited. The composition is essentially a polymer of anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric or zwitterionic variety which increases in tackiness upon being wetted, with wetting occurring just prior to application onto the skin thereby enhancing the composition's adhesivity. Skin agents delivered through the adhesive strip include vitamins, herbal extracts, alpha- and beta-hydroxycarboxylic acids, ceramides, anti-inflammatories, antimicrobials, vasoconstrictors, zinc salts and mixtures thereof. The strips are sealably enclosed within a pouch for purposes of moisture protection.

Delivery of skin benefit agents via adhesive strips

A polish-lacquer remover is provided that includes a volatile organic solvent, a thickening agent and an electrolyte. The most preferable combination is that of an acrylate/vinyl acetate cross polymer and 2-ethylhexyl alkyl ammonium methosulfate. Compositions of this invention are thickened but do not suffer from tacky or sticky residues upon solvent evaporation and have good lacquer removing efficacy.

Thickened nail polish remover

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 nail polish or lacquer removing composition is provided that includes a volatile organic solvent such as acetone, gelatin and glycerin present to stably suspend the gelatin in the solvent.
