Abstract: The invention is directed to a wash composition that does not irritate the eyes. The composition comprises a surfactant system having anionic surfactant, and amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactant or both, and nonionic surfactant or cationic polymer or a mixture thereof. The composition is water continuous, has a pH from 4.8 to 7.5, and surprisingly, does not irritate the eyes while simultaneously delivering consumer desired lathering characteristics.

Abstract: An antibacterial composition comprises water, alcohol, a thickening agent, and a moisturizing oil, wherein at least 50% of droplets of the moisturizing oil present in the antibacterial composition have a particle size of 5 micrometers to 10 millimeters. A method of making an antibacterial composition comprises dispersing a thickening agent in water to form a first phase; combining a moisturizing oil and a humectant to form a second phase; combining the first phase with an alcohol to form a third phase; adding the second phase to the third phase, forming a fourth phase; and adding a neutralizer to the fourth phase, thereby forming the antibacterial composition.

Abstract: A personal care implement is disclosed having a water insoluble absorbent/adsorbent layer attached to a water insoluble scrubbing layer and a mild, low active, low viscosity cleansing composition contained in the absorbent/adsorbent layer. A sufficient quantity of the composition is transferred on demand to the scrubbing layer by squeezing the implement. The implement produces copious quantities of lather foam and mild cleansing.

Abstract: A personal care cleansing composition is provided which includes a C10-C24 acyl glycinate salt and a dihydroxypropyl quaternary ammonium salt. Most preferred is sodium cocoyl glycinate in combination with dihydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. The quaternary ammonium salt enhances foaming properties of the glycinate salt.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel composition containing specific mild surfactant system comprising fatty acyl isethionate product and alkanoyl surfactant. Addition of triglyceride of specific degree of hydrogenation permits the retention of emollient benefit while retaining also “squeaky” feel of soap and maintaining lather stability.

Abstract: A cosmetic composition and method of imparting a healthy appearance to skin is provided which includes using a composition formed with about 0.1 to about 20% by weight of the composition of beads, from about 1 to about 80% by weight of the beads of a first coloring agent incorporated within a matrix of the beads, and a cosmetically acceptable carrier, the composition having a hue less than 25°, the beads being coated and having an exterior color other than that of the first coloring agent.

Abstract: A cosmetic product and method of imparting a healthy appearance to skin is provided which includes using a composition formed with about 0.1 to about 20% by weight of the composition of beads, from about 1 to about 80% by weight of the beads of a coloring agent incorporated within a matrix of the beads, and a cosmetically acceptable carrier, the composition being delivered from a package with instructions being printed on or associated with the package indicating topical use on skin to impart a healthy appearance, and wherein the skin with the applied composition has a reflectance in the range from 510 to 600 nm, and reflectance amplitude ratios at wavelength 510/540 nm ranging from 1.10 to 1.20 and at wavelength 600/580 nm ranging from 1.35 to 1.65.

Abstract: A cosmetic water-in-oil composition is provided which includes a water-in-oil emulsifying silicone surfactant, organic sunscreen agent and conjugated linoleic acid. The conjugated linoleic acid functions to moderate shine on facial surfaces to which the organic sunscreen agent formulated composition is topically applied.
