The present invention relates to a new type of solid balneological preparations for cosmetic, hygienic and therapeutic use, which has both the properties of a solid bath additive and those of liquid products, and is characterized especially by the addition of lipid components, vesicle forming lipids, tensides and, in some cases, mineral salts. Active components, adjuvants such as stabilizers, adsorbing substances, lubricants as well as smoothing and breakdown promoting agents may also be contained therein.

Effervescent bath tablet, method of preparing it, and the use thereof

The invention relates to novel essentially anhydrous oily bath and shower compositions containing a combination of fatty oil and/or fatty or waxy apolar substance, oil-soluble surfactant, and vesicle-forming lipid and, if desired, a cosmetically- or balneologically-active ingredient. When poured into or simply admixed with water, these formulations immediately and automatically, generate dispersed vesicles or liposomes. They exhibit an immediate as well as a prolonged or depot effect, can be used alone or added to or together with existing bath or shower formulations, and are especially suited for use in connection with or as additives to full, partial, or shower baths.

Bath and shower composition having vesicle-forming properties and method

Foamable cosmetic creams for application onto the skin, comprising a selected creamy oil-in-water emulsion and a selected propellant, which may be and advantageously is a single propellant gas, are disclosed. Improvement of the froth properties is effected by predetermined control of the ingredients of the composition and their proportions, comprising specific percentage ranges of nonionic emulsifier, oil portion, consistency-providing agent, and water, a viscosity of the starting cream emulsion formed therefrom between about 200 and 500 mPas, and the propellant employed, which consists essentially of nitrous oxide or carbon dioxide, preferably nitrous oxide.
