  • Publication number: 20230293396
    Abstract: A method of improving foam quality of foams prepared from a concentrated cleaning composition containing fragrance and benzoic acid includes mixing the fragrance with a hydrophilic solubilizer to form a premix and adding the premix to other ingredients of the concentrated composition. A ratio of fragrance to stabilizer in the concentrated composition is about 1:1 to about 3:1. The concentrated compositions are foamed by diluting with water to form a ready-to-use composition and mixing the ready-to-use composition with air in a mechanical foaming head.

  • Publication number: 20230000753
    Abstract: This disclosure provides an encapsulated cleansing composition that is free of talc and that includes a core particle including (1) tapioca starch, (2) potato starch, (3) at least one anionic surfactant, and (4) at least one amphoteric surfactant. The encapsulated cleaning composition also includes a coating disposed about at least a portion of the core particle and includes a polysaccharide.

  • Publication number: 20220409495
    Abstract: Methods for making a personal care product and a personal care product are provided. In one example, the method includes forming a first layer by an additive process. The first layer has a first composition that includes at least one filler component selected from the group of starch, bulking agent salt, granular acid, clay mineral, sorbitol, silica, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide. A binder is applied to the first layer. A second layer is formed by the additive process overlying the binder. The second layer has a second composition that includes at least one filler component selected from the group of starch, bulking agent slat, granular acid, clay mineral, sorbitol, silica, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide. At least one of the first composition and the second composition further includes at least one surfactant.

  • Publication number: 20220401342
    Abstract: A conditioning composition is free of talc and includes tapioca starch, optionally potato starch, optionally corn starch, at least one anionic surfactant, and optionally at least one amphoteric surfactant, which may be described as a core particle. The conditioning composition may include, or be free of, a coating disposed about at least a portion of the core particle and having a compound chosen from cellulose polymers, anionic or cationic polymers, vinyl polymers, natural polymers, polysaccharides, copolymers thereof, and combinations thereof. The conditioning composition includes from about 0 to about 25 percent by weight of liquid, has a pH of from about 3.5 to about 5 when mixed with water at about 10 wt % and produces a flash foam of less than about 10 ml when contacted with water at a temperature of about 26 to about 30° C. degrees.
