  • Publication number: 20240065956
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to hair coloring base compositions and ready-to-use hair coloring compositions comprising 2-methoxymethyl-P-phenylenediamine, an oxidative dye precursor. The hair coloring base composition is mixed with a developer composition to form a ready-to-use hair coloring composition. These compositions are effective for coloring or toning hair. The color imparted to the hair is long-lasting (tenacious), neutralizing, and gentle. Methods for making the composition and methods for coloring hair are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240041751
    Abstract: The instant disclosure relates to hair coloring base compositions containing coconut oil, ready-to-use hair coloring compositions containing coconut oil, and methods for coloring hair. The hair coloring base composition includes: (a) coconut oil; (b) one or more oils other than coconut oil; (c) one or more alkalizing agents; (d) one or more oxidative dye precursors and/or couplers; (e) one or more surfactants; (f) one or more thickening agents; and (g) water. The hair coloring base compositions, the ready-to-use hair coloring compositions, and the methods provide vibrant and durable color to the hair while imparting moisturizing, styling, and anti-frizz properties to the hair; and are particularly useful for curly and very curly hair types.

  • Publication number: 20130022565
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for lightening keratin fibres, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium:—at least 30% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of one or more fatty substances free of carboxylic acid groups;—one or more peroxygenated salts;—one or more basifying agents; and—hydrogen peroxide; the peroxygenated salts/hydrogen peroxide weight ratio being greater than or equal to 0.2. This composition makes it possible to achieve equivalent, or even higher, lightening levels with markedly lower concentrations of peroxygenated salts and/or of hydrogen peroxide and/or milder pH conditions and/or shorter leave-on times. The composition then makes it possible to obtain advantages in terms of skin comfort and fibre protection. Under equivalent application conditions, this composition makes it possible to significantly improve the bleaching performance, in particular in terms of lightening power and efficacy, when compared with standard bleaching compositions.
