Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel emollient compound capryl isostearate, which is obtained from capryl alcohol and isostearic acid. These emollient compounds may then be used in dermatological products for their unexpected characteristics and as silicone-free carbon based replacements for the volatile cyclomethicones.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel anhydrous or water-in-oil synthetic ester compositions which are used in formulating dermatological products having uniform structure ranging in consistency from a soft gel to a hard stick. The compositions comprise a new component, dibehenyl fumaric acid ester, which has a melting point of approximately 72-74.degree. C. The dibehenyl fumaric acid ester component has exceptional benefits when used in combination with any cosmetically acceptable oil in varying ratios, to produce homogeneous materials having a uniform structure. The di-behenyl fumaric acid ester according to the present invention may be used to harden or stiffen any cosmetically acceptable oil or water-in-oil emulsions and can be used to create compositions varying widely in viscosity and/or hardness from gels to solid systems such as sticks or to enhance the stability of water-in-oil emulsions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a synthetic, branched chain, oil soluble, fatty acid esters which, when preferably partially neutralized in situ, is revealed as a new water-in-oil emulsifier. Formulations are presented which demonstrate a method for using the disclosed emulsifier to prepare stable water-in-oil emulsions of varying polarity and viscosity for use in a variety of dermatological applications, and/or wherever emulsions according to the present invention may be used.

Abstract: This invention introduces a series of esters to be used as emollients in cosmetic formulations. These are C.sub.12 -C.sub.15 blended alcohol esters, C.sub.16, C.sub.18, C.sub.20 and C.sub.20 alcohol esters of fumaric and maleic acids.When used "neat" or in formulations they are unusually safe by standard cosmetic tests. A unique and ideal physical property of the C.sub.12 -C.sub.15 blend alcohol ester of fumaric acid is that it is a solid melting at body temperature.These esters, with their safety and physical properties, introduce the cosmetic chemist to new ideal cosmetic emollients for use in any cosmetic formulation.

Abstract: Novel Sunscreen compositions are demonstrated which are either water dispersible or waterproof without the inclusion of PABA, PABA derivatives, oxybenzone (Benzophenone 3), and any auxilliary UV-B or UV-A screen be they water or oil soluble. This is done by the use of p-methoxy-2-ethyl-hexyl cinnamate (Parsol MCX) and 1-(4-methoxylphenyl)-3-(4 tert-butyl-phenyl) propan 1-3 dione (Parsol 1789) as the only absorbers present.The only common element in all the sunscreen composition demonstrated is the presence of the neopentanoate ester having the strutural formula ##STR1## which is used for emolliency; moisturization and increasing the SPF factors. The unusually high SPF factors are a result of these unique compositions.

Abstract: Two specific diesters of neopentyl glycol used in varying combinations are introduced as replacements for mineral oil in cosmetic formulations which increases SPF of the formulations, are unusually safe even when used neat, have zero comedogenicity and mimic mineral oil in all of its good physical and chemical properties.

Abstract: A novel oil in water emulsion composition comprising of two alkoxylated esters and a neopentanoate ester in varied ratios to produce unique and unexpected properties in formulations. Water thin emulsions, deodorant milk emulsions, dry skin lotion and sunscreen emulsion with high unexpected SPF results are a direct result in the use of this emulsion system in the formulation.

Abstract: A novel use of two specific neopentyl glycol diesters as wetting, dispersing, spreading and deterging agents for micronized TiO.sub.2, ZnO and other pigments is introduced. These esters, neopentyl glycol di-2-ethyl hexanoate and neopentyl glycol di-isostearate, are used in varying combinations and may also be used with an emulsifying agent for a water dispersible pigmented make-up cleaner composition.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with the use of neopentanoate esters as novel cosmetic emollients for sunscreen products.The use of isoarachidyl neopentanoate in sunscreen formulations offer new and unexpected results over the use of similar esters previously disclosed.The isoarachidyl neopentanoate has a minimal odor, good stability, water white color, higher sun protection factor values, good emolliency, good crystal solibilization, very low freeze point. It forms the emollient basis for a new way to make very high sun protection factor products.

Abstract: Novel self-emulsifying alkoxylate esters are described having a cloud point of less than about 15.degree. C. the structural formula: ##STR1## R.sub.1 contains from 2 to 20 carbon atoms and is selected from the group consisting of aliphatic and aromatic substituents and R.sub.3 is an alkyl or aryl substituent from 1 to 21 carbon atoms. One of R.sub.1 and R.sub.3 must contain greater than 8 carbon atoms.R.sub.2 is: ##STR2## x is from 1 to 10 and y is from 1 to 20 and the ratio of y to x is from 2:1 to 10:1.These alkoxylate esters are particularly useful in preventing the chalking of antiperspirant compositions containing volatile silicone oil by adding to the antiperspirant composition a chalking preventative amount of such ester. The compositions are also useful in a broad range of cosmetic compositions, and form stable oil-in-water emulsions at room temperature.

More particularly the invention relates to an aqueous shampoo composition which both cleans the hair and scalp and additionally imparts a conditioning effect to the hair so that further treatment is unnecessary.
