  • Patent number: 10071040
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cosmetic composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium, at least one cationic surfactant, at least one oxyethylenated ester of sorbitan and at least one non-silicone liquid fatty substance, the liquid fatty substance being present in an amount of less than 8% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition. Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a cosmetic process for treating keratin materials, such as the hair. The compositions as disclosed herein have an improved conditioning effect, for instance by smoothing the tips of the hair and providing improved hair sheen.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8771659
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to novel cosmetic compositions comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium: from 0.1% to 2% by weight of at least one starch, and from 0.1% to 1% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of at least one diester of a carboxylic acid comprising 8 to 30 carbon atoms and of polyethylene glycol. The cosmetic compositions provides a fondant texture, and these compositions rinse out easily. Hair treated with this composition has a soft feel, free of residue. These compositions are may be used for washing and/or conditioning keratin materials such as the hair or the skin.

  • Publication number: 20090130038
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium: (i) at least one cationic polymer obtained by polymerizing a mixture of monomers comprising at least one vinylic monomer substituted with at least one amino group, at least one hydrophobic non-ionic vinylic monomer, and at least one associative vinylic monomer; and (ii) at least one ester of a C8-C24 fatty acid and oxyethylenated sorbitan comprising 2 to 10 oxyethylene motifs. These compositions may be used for treating keratinous materials.

  • Publication number: 20020119110
    Abstract: The present invention provides a freshening cosmetic composition characterized in that it comprises 0.01% to 2% by weight menthol and 0.1% to 10% by weight menthyl lactate, the menthol/menthyl lactate ratio lying in the range 1/3 to 1/10, and being such that the odor of the menthol is barely perceptible, said composition not being irritating, in particular for the sensitive parts of the human body, while conserving the various beneficial effects of menthol.
