Abstract: A composition comprising: ?(i) 0.01 to 10 wt % of a branched cationic conditioning surfactant selected from structure 1?wherein: ??R1 and R2 comprise linear alkyl chains, saturated or unsaturated, with carbon-carbon chain lengths of from C4 to C20; ??R3 comprise either a proton or linear or branched alkyl chains, saturated or unsaturated, with carbon-carbon chain lengths of from C1 to C5; ??n has a range of from 0 to 10; ??XG is an organic or inorganic anion; ?(ii) 0.1 to 10 wt % of a linear fatty material having at least one linear carbon-carbon chain, selected from a linear fatty alcohol, a linear alkoxylated fatty alcohol, a linear fatty acid and mixtures thereof; ?(iii) 0.1 to 5 wt % of a nonionic structurant; and ?(iv) a particulate benefit agent selected from conditioning actives; wherein the molar ratio of branched cationic surfactants (i) to linear fatty material (ii) is in the range of from 1:20 to 1:1, results in improved particulate benefit agent deposition onto bleached hair.

Abstract: A unit-dose tablet composition comprising a surfactant, a builder, a filler and an effervescent agent selected from organic acids wherein at least 90% wt. of the effervescent agent is coated with triglyceride oil.
Abstract: Disclosed is a skin care composition providing anti-inflammation benefits. The composition is comprising of coffee seed oil and a hydroxy-substituted C8-C24 fatty acid being 12-hydroxy stearic acid, wherein the weight ratio of the coffee seed oil to the hydroxy-substituted C8-C24 fatty acid is 1:5 to 15:1.
Abstract: The invention is directed to a hydratable concentrated surfactant composition. The composition is pourable, easy to dilute, substantially free of sulfate and oil, comprises a C6-C14 acid, alcohol or both, an anionic surfactant comprising acyl isethionate and an amphoteric surfactant, zwitterionic surfactant or both. The composition is in lamellar phase and thickens and transforms to an isotropic phase upon dilution. The composition can be used as a concentrate in small volumes and diluted as used and needed or can be diluted with water in refill packaging to ensure a reduction in plastic waste.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a natural preservative system that comprises a substituted amino acid and with benzoic acid and/or a derivative thereof. The preservative system provides superior antimicrobial benefits and color stability to end use compositions even when the compositions are formulated to have a pH in the range of 3.5 to 8.2.

Abstract: A hand held spray dispenser in which air and liquid are pressurised towards a mixing chamber by energy generated by a manual activation element that is rotated with a unidirectional twist to energise one or more energy storage bodies, energy from which is released to generate sufficient air pressure and air flow and sufficient liquid flow for a spray to be formed from the air-liquid mixture.
