Abstract: A personal cleansing comprising, in an aqueous continuous phase: a total amount of anionic surfactant, amphoteric surfactant and zwitterionic surfactant consisting of: (i) from 3 wt % to less than 7 wt %, by weight of the total composition at 100% activity, of an alkyl ether sulfate anionic surfactant of general formula (I): R—O—(CH2CH2—O)n—SO3-M+ in which R is selected from linear or branched alkyl groups having from 10 to 14 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof; n is a number that represents the average degree of ethoxylation and ranges from 1.5 to 2.

Abstract: A sulphate free cleansing composition for hair and scalp comprising, in an aqueous continuous phase: a total amount of anionic surfactant, amphoteric surfactant and zwitterionic surfactant consisting of: (i) from 3 wt % to 13 wt %, by weight of the total composition at 100% activity, of an alpha olefin sulfonate anionic surfactant of general formula (I): R1—CH?CH—CH2—SO3?M+ (I) in which R1 is selected from linear or branched alkyl groups having from 11 to 13 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof; and M is a solubilizing cation; (ii) from 1 to 6%, by weight of an amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactant, selected from an alkyl betaine of general formula (II) R2—N+(CH3)2—CH2—COO?M+ (II) wherein R2=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an alkyl hydroxy sultaine of general formula (III), R3—N+(CH3)2—CH2—CH(OH)—CH2—SO3?M+ (III) wherein R3=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an alkyl aminopropyl hydroxy sultaine of general formula (IV), R4—CO—NH—(CH2)3—N+(CH3)2—CH2—CH(OH)—CH2—SO3?M+ (IV) wherein R4=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an alky

Abstract: A sulphate free cleansing composition for hair, scalp or skin comprising, in an aqueous continuous phase: a total amount of anionic surfactant, amphoteric surfactant and zwitterionic surfactant consisting of: (i) from 3 wt % to 13 wt %, by weight of the total composition at 100% activity, of an alpha olefin sulfonate anionic surfactant of general formula (I): R1—CH?CH—CH2—SO3-M+ (I) in which R1 is selected from linear or branched alkyl groups having from 11 to 13 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof; and M is a solubilizing cation; (ii) from 1 to 6%, by weight of an amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactant, selected from an alkyl betaine of general formula (II) R2—N+(CH3)2—CH2—COO-M+ (II) wherein R2=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an alkyl hydroxy sultaine of general formula (III), R3—N+(CH3)2—CH2—CH(0H)—CH2—S03-M+ (III) wherein R3=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an alkyl aminopropyl hydroxy sultaine of general formula (IV), R4—C0-NH—(CH2)3—N+(CH3)2—CH2—CH(0H)—CH2—S03-M+ (IV) wherein R4=C12 (Lauryl) or Coco derived; an

Abstract: The invention provides a hair conditioning composition comprising an aqueous carrier, a lamellar gel phase formed from cationic surfactant and fatty material and a rheology modifier for the lamellar gel phase which comprises a fatty acid and a water-soluble, nonionic polymer of alkylene oxide of the general formula: H(OCH2CHR)nOH in which R is H, methyl, or mixtures thereof, and n has an average value of at least 150. Compositions of the invention provide a superior viscosity profile.
