The object of the present invention is a solid anhydrous composition for keratin fibres, especially for human hair, comprising at least one polyol liquid at 20° C. at a concentration 50% or more by weight and at least one fatty acid soap at a concentration of 5% or more by weight, all values calculated to total composition, wherein the composition is free of volatile organic solvents, especially C1-C4 aliphatic alcohol.

Abstract: A hair treatment method sets a hair style and/or its restyling comprising application of an anhydrous spray on wet hair. The method treats hair by applying a substantially anhydrous composition, comprising one or more polymers according to the general structure wherein A is a C2 to C6 alkylene group and n represents an average number of 5 to 1000 and p represents an average number of 5 to 100, onto wet hair.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a substantially anhydrous shine enhancing spray composition for keratin fibers, especially for human hair, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, one or more hair setting film forming polymers and a pyrrolidone carboxylic acid ester.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an aerosol cosmetic composition, temporary keratin fiber dyeing method, and device which employ pigments and organopolysiloxane graft polymers in an environment with low water content. Good dyeing properties combined with wear and water resistance as well as good removability upon 1 shampooing were found.
