Abstract: Cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more substituted aminopolyorganosiloxanes (SH) with substituted amino groups which are bonded to silicon atoms of the polysiloxane basic structure via alkylene bridges or mono- or oligo(alkylenamino)alkylene bridges, where the amino groups present in the aminopolyorganosiloxanes (SH) are substituted at least partially by a radical of the formula (?) T-CH2—CHOH—CH2—??(?), in which T is the radical of a surfactant monoalcohol polyglycol ether with emulsifier character, the amino groups present in the aminopolyorganosiloxanes (SH) are substituted in the average ratio of at least 1.5 radicals of the formula (?) per Si-bonded aminoalkyl group or amino-mono- or -oligo-(alkylenamino)-alkyl group, and present amino groups are, if appropriate, acylated and/or alkylated and/or benzylated and/or protonated at least partially to give amide groups, are described.

Abstract: Cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more polysiloxanes functionalized with at least one carbamate group are described. In a preferred embodiment the compositions are emulsions wherein the one or more polysiloxanes may advantageously be used as emulsifier.

Abstract: Linear organopolysiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymers of the formula (I) are described, in which R1 and R2, independently of one another, are a straight-chain or branched, saturated alkyl group having 6 to 22 carbon atoms or are a straight-chain or branched, mono- or polyunsaturated alkenyl group having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7 and R8, independently of one another, are a straight-chain or branched, saturated alkyl group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, a straight-chain or branched, mono- or polyunsaturated alkenyl group having 2 to 30 carbon atoms or a phenyl radical, m and p are numbers from 4 to 50 and n is a number from 3 to 90. The linear organopolysiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymers of the formula (I) can be used in an advantageous way in cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions. Moreover, they are suitable particularly for the cleansing and care of the hair and the skin, as emulsifier in emulsions, preferably in O/W or W/O emulsions, and as conditioners.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of polysiloxanes which comprise a plurality of quaternary ammonium groups in the molecule in cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions for the cleaning and care of keratin fibers, in particular of human hair. The improvement in the shine and in the color protection of the hair is achieved if the polysiloxanes are used in an amount in the range from 0.01 to 30%.

Abstract: The hair-coloring compositions described comprise one or more anthraquinone compounds of the formula I where R1, R2 and R3 each independently represent hydrogen, linear or branched alkyl having 1 to 22 carbon atoms, linear or branched alkenyl having 2 to 22 carbon atoms or N(R4)C(O)R5; R4 and R5 independently represent hydrogen or alkyl having 1 to 22 carbon atoms; X represents SO3A1 or OCH2CH2(OCH2CH2)xOCH3; Y is H or SO3A2; A1 and A2 each independently represent H+, Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+/2, Ca2+/2, Al3+/3 or +NR6R7R8R9; R6, R7, R8, R9 each independently represent hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 22 carbon atoms or hydroxyalkyl having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, and x represents a number from 0 to 10; wherein the compounds of the formula I comprise exactly one group selected from SO3A1 and SO3A2.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of one or more polymers chosen from polyethylene glycols, ethoxylated quaternary ammonium compounds and oligoesters, in particular in cosmetic formulations, for stabilizing the color in colored keratin fibers, in particular in human hair, and for protecting these keratin fibers against color loss.
