Abstract
The present invention relates to hydrous, liquid, paste- or cream-like skin cleaning agents for the removal of strongly adhering soil, comprising anionic and/or amphoteric and/or non-ionogenic surfactants as washing-active substances, thickeners, at least one abrasive, and, optionally, adjuvants for the regulation of consistency, appearance, odor, and stability, such as pigments, fragrances, stabilizers, and preservatives, which skin cleaning agents are characterized by the fact that they comprise di-n-butyl adipate and/or di-isopropyl adipate as the exclusive solvents. These agents are obtained by homogeneously mixing the components, optionally under heating of the mixture. If a C,-C,fatty alcohol which acts as consistency regulator is added, heating of the component mixture may be omitted. Besides, the addition of the fatty alcohol increases the detergent action. The present invention further relates to the use of these skin cleaning agents, with the cleaning agent being distributed on the skin without water or with a small amount of water first, and the cleaning procedure being continued and finished under rinsing with water.
