Abstract: Cosmetic preparations, in particular hair conditioners, contain at least one imidazoline derivative including at least two long fat groups, and at least two ester oils.

Abstract: Extract of cloudberries (Rubus chamaemorus) for use in agents for treating keratin fibers, particularly human hair, for improving the moisture in the fiber, repairing and restructuring the fibers and for protecting the fibers from oxidants and UV radiation, and for improving the color retention and color intensity when the fibers are colored hairs is disclosed.

Abstract: Cosmetic preparations, especially compositions that condition keratin fibers, which comprise at least two different cationic polymers and a water-soluble silicone. Said compositions are especially used to make the hair easy to comb and at the same time add volume to the hair. The compositions are preferably sprayed onto wet or dry keratin fibers, the composition preferably remaining on the keratin fibers until the next wash.

Abstract: Surfactant-containing cleansing compositions contain hydrogenated castor oil for stabilizing an antidandruff component that is insoluble in the cleansing composition. As a result, thorough and gentle cleansing of skin and/or of hair with simultaneous antidandruff effect is ensured, without phase separation, change in viscosity, or reduction in the foaming ability during storage. Optimally, it is possible to dispense with additional stabilization of the antidandruff component through the use of gel formers.

Abstract: A surfactant-containing cleansing composition is comprised of a surfactant and (a) at least one protein from yogurt and (b) one or more substances from the group of plant extracts and/or plant milks and/or vitamins, provitamins and vitamin precursors, and derivatives of vitamins, provitamins and vitamin precursors in the weight ratio a):b) 10:1 to 1:4.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition useful as a cosmetic hair treatment agent based on a) a surfactant mixture containing: A) at least one anionic surfactant; B) at least one amphoteric surfactant, and; C) at least one additional surfactant selected from the group consisting of acyl glutamates, amino oxides and of alkyl polyglucosides. The surfactant mixture also contains: b) at least one additional hair care substance selected from the group consisting of fatty alcohols, cationic surfactants, cationic polymers, cationically derivatized protein hydrolysates, water-insoluble volatile silicones and/or of water-soluble volatilized silicones and vitamins and/or provitamins and/or physiologically compatible derivatives thereof. This agent can be excellently formulated as a 2-in-1 shampoo that, while simultaneously cleaning and caring for, also positively influences the volume and body of the hair.

Abstract: The invention relates to cosmetic agents for treating, particularly for caring for, human hair. These agents contain an active combination consisting of: (A) at least one water-insoluble volatile silicone; (B) at least one cationic polymer, and; (C) at least one additional hair care substance selected from the group consisting of vitamins and/or provitamins and/or of cationically derived protein hydrolysates. The treatment of hair with a suitable formulation that contains this active substance combination leads to an improved conditioning of the hair that is made noticeable, in particular, with regard to an improved wet and dry combability and to the reduction of split ends.
