Abstract: Described are methods for preparing compositions that include the steps of (a) premixing a cationic guar gum in water; (b) adding a surfactant component to the premix of (a); (c) adding about 1 to about 3 weight % of salt to the mixture obtained in (b); (d) applying shear to the mixture obtained in (c) at a shear rate not exceeding about 20 sec?1 to form a spherulite composition; and (f) mixing an oil phase with the spherulite composition. Also included are compositions prepared by this process.

Abstract: Spherulite-containing compositions are described, including compositions comprising a surfactant component, a salt, and an oil phase, wherein the surfactant component comprises (a) about 6 to about 8.25 weight % sodium trideceth sulfate; (b) about 1.8 to about 3.0 weight % of a structuring agent; (c) about 1.1 to about 3.0 weight % of a foam booster; (d) water; and (e) about 0.3 to about 0.8 weight % of a cationic guar gum.

Abstract: Novel cleansing compositions and methods for making same are described. Preferred embodiments provide compositions comprising an acrylate copolymer, an alkoxylated methyl glucoside polyol, and a surfactant. Preferred alkoxylated methyl glucoside polyols among those useful herein may include ethoxylated and/or propoxylated methyl glucoside polyols.

Abstract: A container has a label or decoration in the container and unattached to any interior surface. The label or decoration is in the form of a monolayer film or a laminate film with the decoration and other materials under a coating or within the laminate layers. A preferred mode is for the container to be a pump container having a constricted opening. The film will be of an elliptical to a rectangular shape. If rectangular the film will have rounded lower edges or a parabolic lower portion for ease of insertion into container openings. The container preferably will have grooves, projections or other techniques for stabilizing the film in the container. Monolayer films will have the decoration printed onto the surface and will have a protective coating over this surface. Laminate films can be of the same or dissimilar films with the printed surface between the laminate films. The useful adhesives for the films are those that are not affected by the product in the container.
