A hair treatment composition comprising a silicone pressure sensitive adhesive emulsion in which the emulsion comprises a disperse organic solvent phase in a continuous water phase.

Hair treatment compositions

A leave on hair care composition comprising a) a wax dispersion; and b) an aqueous oil emulsion wherein the oil phase is a liquid and comprises: i) one or more non-volatile oils, where the dynamic viscosity of any single non-volatile oil or the dynamic viscosity of a blend of non-volatile oils is less than 1000 mPa&#xb7;s at 35&#xb0; C. and 5 s-1; ii) an oil dispersible structurant such that the dynamic viscosity of the structured oil phase at 35&#xb0; C. prior to formation of the emulsion is at least 50,000 mPa&#xb7;s at a shear rate of 0.5 s-1 and is less than 6,000 mPa&#xb7;s at a shear rate of 500 s-1.

Hair care composition

A mousse, cream, lotion or spray leave on hair treatment composition comprising a silicone pressure sensitive adhesive.

The invention provides hair styling compositions, for example creams, gels and especially aerosol hair styling mousses. The compositions contain a cross-linked silicone, such as an emulsion of cross-linked dimethiconol gum, and a cationic hair styling polymer having a cationic charge density of at least 1 meq/g. The compositions provide excellent styling as well as sensory feel.

Hair styling composition

Aqueous hair aerosol styling aids

Concentrated, liquid fabric-softening compositions containing 15-60% of a cationic fabric-softening agent, and an aqueous medium, are prepared by inclusion therein of an effective amount of polymer, such as polyethyleneglycol with a molecular weight of 6,000. These compositions are water-dispersible and pourable, and can be easily dosed into the rinse cycle of a washing process, e.g. by means of automatic dosing devices in the washing machine.

Liquid fabric-softening composition

A soil-release composition for the treatment of textile fabrics comprises a complex of a nonionic detergent and a polycarboxylate polymer, together with an organic quaternary ammonium surfactant compound in a concentrated aqueous solution with an acid pH.
