Abstract: A product release system for atomizing cosmetic hair or skin cleaning compositions is described, which has (a) pressure-resistant packaging, (b) a capillary-containing spray head, and (c) a propellant-containing cosmetic composition, which contains at least one wash-active surfactant. The atomization is done using the capillary. The capillary preferably has a diameter of 0.1 to 1 mm and a length of 5 to 100 mm. The spray rate is preferably 0.01 to 5 g/s. The composition can particularly be gel-like.

Abstract: A product release system to atomize cosmetic compositions is described, which has (a) pressure-resistant packaging, (b) a capillary-containing spray head, and (c) a propellant-containing cosmetic composition. The atomization is done using the capillary and the composition is non-fluid at 77° F. (25° C.) or has a viscosity greater than 0.0007 lb/in2 s (5,000 mPa s). The capillary preferably has a diameter of 0.004-0.04 in (0.1 to 1 mm) and a length of 0.2-4 in (5 to 100 mm). The spray rate is preferably 0.0004-0.2 oz/s (0.01 to 5 g/s). The composition can be, in particular, gel-like, waxy, or emulsion-like and used for the treatment of hair or skin.

Abstract: The hair treatment composition for providing a flexible long-lasting hair fixing contains a combination of at least three film-forming, hair-fixing polymers. This hair treatment composition contains at least one amphoteric polymer, at least one anionic polymer and at least one nonionic vinyl lactam homopolymer or copolymer. The at least one amphotenc polymer is formed from at least one monomer, which has at least one neutralized or non-neutmlized acid group, and from at least one other monomer, which has at least one neutralized or non-neutralized amine group. The anionic polymer is built up from at least one radically polymerizable ethylenicaily unsaturated carboxylic acid, such as acrylic or methacrylic acid.

Abstract: The hair treatment composition contains preferably from 0.01 to 20 percent by weight of at least one N-hydroxyalkyl-O-benzyl chitosan and from 0.01 to 20 percent by weight of at least one other hair treatment effective ingredient. The at least one N-hydroxyalkyl-O-benzyl chitosan has at least one hydroxylalkyl group, preferably a hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl or hydroxybutyl group, and has from 2 to 20 carbon atoms. Various methods of treating hair with hair treatment compositions containing one or more of the N-hydroxyalkyl-O-benzyl chitosans are described.
