Abstract: A hair treatment medium having the absence of arylated silicones includes a) at least one diester of the propylene glycol according to the formula (I), in which R and R denote, independently of one another, a residue selected from at least one linear, saturated or unsaturated, branched, saturated or unsaturated and cyclical saturated or unsaturated C6 to C30 hydrocarbon residue and/or a phenyl or benzyl residue substituted with C1 to C4 alkyl groups and/or hydroxy groups, and the compounds thereof in an overall volume of 0.01 to 5.0% by weight, and b) at least one protein hydrolysate and compounds of protein hydrolysates in an overall volume of 0.01 to 10.0% by weight, and c) at least one C1-C6 alcohol in an overall volume of 1.0% by weight to 40.0% by weight in the absence of arylated silicone oils.

Abstract: A foaming hair treatment agent includes alkoxylated silicones and cationic silicones. Together with the production of a fine-pore, creamy, and stable foam, side effects of environmental influences and of oxidative as well as surfactant hair treatments are to be reduced preferably during the oxidative or surfactant hair treatment but also after the oxidative or surfactant hair treatment without impairing the effectiveness of the oxidative or surfactant cosmetics, in particular with respect to color intensity, color fastness, lightening power, or waving effect, and while preventing oil buildup of the keratin fibers and the increased formation of dandruff.

Abstract: The present invention describes compositions for the treatment of keratinic fibers, in particular human hair, that significantly improve the conditioning properties and also the shine and feel of keratinic fibers, in particular human hair, as compared with prior-art compositions. The compositions according to the invention include as essential ingredients cationic ammonium compounds, amidoamines, ester oils, cationic polymers and sugar surfactants.

Abstract: Hair treatment agents include selected cationic alkyloligoglucosides, alkyloligoglucosides, selected ester oils, and quaternary ammonium compounds as care-providing substances.

Abstract: Hair treatment agents include selected ester oils, selected silicones, and selected acrylic acid derivatives. The agents are used both for hair treatment and to improve shelf stability.

Abstract: A hair treatment agent includes dimethylsilanol hyaluronates and glycerol.

Abstract: Non-sulfate skin and hair cleansers that impart advantageous properties to the skin or hair and produce a finely porous and creamy foam, containing the following in a cosmetically acceptable substrate—on a weight basis—(a) at least one acylamino acid salt, (a) at least one alkyl polyglucoside and (b) at least one zwitterionic and/or amphoteric surfactant, wherein the ratio of components (a):(b):(c) is in the range of (0.1-1):(1-3):(0.1-5).

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition, such as a haircare composition, wherein the composition comprises, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one surfactant; at least one monocarboxylic acid chosen from benzoic acid, salicylic acid, sorbic acid, dehydroacetic acid, propionic acid, caproic acid, or and salts thereof, and present in the composition in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 1% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition; at least one polyol having a molecular mass of less than 500, present in the composition in an amount ranging from 1 % to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition; wherein the water activity at 25° C. of the composition is less than or equal to 0.96.
