Abstract: A cosmetic preparation is disclosed, comprising (a) at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of non-alkoxylated anionic surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants and amphoteric surfactants, (b) a microemulsion, and (c) at least one cationic polymer.

Abstract: Finely divided emulsions, preferably for use in cosmetic preparations can be produced by first producing a microemulsion which contains at least 10-20% by weight of an alkyl(oligo)glycoside of general formula R1O-[G]p wherein R1 represents an alkyl group and/or alkenyl group with 4 to 22 carbon atoms, G represents a sugar with 5 or 6 carbon atoms and p is a number from 1 to 10, and 4-10% of an ester of glycerol with a fatty acid having a chain length of C12-C22 and 5-30% by weight of an oil body and the remainder to 100% by weight being constituted of water and optionally other ingredients, and then diluting said microemulsion with water amounting to 5 to 20 times the volume of the microemulsion at temperatures of 15 to 35° C.
