Abstract: Disclosed is a hair care composition comprising: a discrete particle comprising an oily component, wherein the oily component comprises one or more materials selected from the group consisting of: (A) metathesized unsaturated polyol esters; (B) sucrose polyesters; (C) fatty esters with a molecular weight greater than or equal to 1500; and mixtures thereof, wherein the oily component has a Zero Shear Viscosity at 25° C. of from about 102 Pa·s to about 109 Pa·s, and has a melting point of from about 35° C. to about 60° C.; and wherein the discrete particle has an average particle size in the hair care composition of from about 0.5 microns to about 20 microns. The hair care composition provides improved conditioning benefits, clean feel, and/or hair styling benefit.

Abstract: A hair care composition comprising from about 0.25% to about 80% of a pre-emulsified emulsion comprising from about 0.005% to about 80% of one or more materials selected from the group comprising metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, sucrose polyesters, fatty esters with a molecular weight greater than or equal to 1500 and mixtures thereof and mixtures thereof or, by weight of said hair care composition; wherein an emulsifier is selected from the group consisting of anionic, non-ionic, cationic, amphoteric and mixtures thereof wherein the average particle size of the pre-emulsified oil in water emulsion is from about 20 nanometers to 20 microns; and a cationic surfactant system wherein the composition is stable with respect to one of the following measures selected from emulsion particle size, viscosity or visual phase separation and mixtures thereof.
