Abstract: The invention provides wet skin treatment compositions for use during bathing. The compositions are activated by water and retained efficiently on skin. The compositions impart desirable benefits to skin, are perceived to absorb quickly on wet skin, and leave the skin feeling clean, but non-greasy.

Abstract: The present invention teaches liquid sunscreen compositions in which level of surfactant is higher than level at which the sunscreen component(s) are still soluble in the surfactant in which they are used; and which comprise minimal levels of cationic polymer. Combination of cationic polymer (especially preferred surfactants and at minimum levels) and minimal levels of sunscreen lead to compositions with minimal levels of deposition and minimal SPF. Further, the compositions also maintain good lather.

Abstract: The invention provides personal wash liquids comprising stable particle-in-oil dispersion designed to better deliver functional ingredients from such liquids. Specifically, the invention defines compositions for delivering solid particles and/or capsules.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for making cleansing compositions having desirable moisturization properties by preparing structured liquid base, separately mixing oil and optional polymer to form mixture, mixing or injecting this mixture into the structured base and passing resulting composition through screen with openings larger than 30 micrometer.

Abstract: A stable aqueous liquid comprising surfactant, dispersed cationic polymer particle and small particle benefit agent. The dispersed polymer interacts with the benefit agent, without need of additional structurant to stabilize particles in solution. Further, upon dilution, enhanced cationic deposition is achieved.

Abstract: The invention relates to hydrogel dispersions/particles capable of trapping water insoluble beneficial agent, yet capable of disintegrating smoothly to impart desirable in use characteristics.

Abstract: Adjuvant powder compositions contain a benefit agent or benefit agents and enhance the delivery of these benefit agent or agents when used as a separate adjuvant during preparation of bar compositions. Carriers used in the formation of the adjuvants must have a melting point high enough to survive a spray-drying process.

Abstract: A method of enhancing deposition of benefit agent from bars which method comprises separately preparing an adjuvant composition comprising benefit agent and deposition polymer (e.g., cationic polymer); and base bar composition comprising a surfactant system, wherein the adjuvant composition is initially prepared by mixing components forming the adjuvant composition and water to form a uniform aqueous mixture containing benefit agents having particle size of 0.1 .mu.m to 100 .mu.m and drying said aqueous mixture to form a dried adjuvant composition. By combining adjuvant compositions separately from the base bar composition, it is possible to create a final bar having enhanced deposition of benefit agent without compromising processing or consumer attributes (e.g., foaming).
