Abstract: Rinse-off hair conditioning compositions with improved opacity and reflectivity are disclosed which comprise, in addition to water, C16 to C22 alkyl trimethylammonium salt, C16 to C22 dialkoylethyl dimethylammonium salt, C12 to C22 fatty material and alkali metal halide.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an aqueous opaque hair conditioner which comprises a monoalkyl quat from C14 to higher Carbon chain lengths (preferably C16 to C22) and a dialkyl quat which is a mixture of C16, C16 dialkyl quat and C18, C18 dialkyl quat. Also included is an amount of fatty alcohol to opacify the conditioner. Optionally, a silicone compound may be included. The monoalkyl quat may be in a ratio to the dialkyl quat of about 15:1 to about 2:1. The carbon chain lengths within the dialkyl quat are present in a weight ratio of about 1:3 to about 3:1 of C16,C16 to C18, C18. The fatty alcohol may be present in an amount from about 1% to about 10%.

Abstract: A rinse-off water-in-oil-in-water (W1/O/W2) multiple emulsion composition comprising:

Abstract: The invention relates to opaque hair conditioner compositions that have a lamellar dispersion in the internal aqueous phase and which are water in oil emulsions that comprise: a) about 40 to 95% aqueous phase comprising (i) water and (ii) a cationic surfactant, capable of forming lamellar dispersion, present at about 0.1 to about 10% of the aqueous phase; b) about 0.5 to about 30% oil, comprising a volatile silicone compound, a nonvolatile silicone compound, a volatile hydrocarbon compound, a nonvolatile hydrocarbon compound, or a mixture thereof; c) about 0.1 to about 20% silicone surfactant; and d) optionally di-long chain alkyl amines having C10 to C22 carbon chains, long chain fatty alcohols having C10 to C22 carbon chains, or ethoxylated fatty alcohols.

Abstract: Rinse-off, water-in-oil-in-water multiple emulsion compositions are disclosed. The multiple emulsion compositions comprise an external aqueous phase optionally incorporating an emulsifier and/or a second topically-active compound. The internal phase comprises a primary water-in-oil emulsion, wherein the primary emulsion comprises a first topically-active compound, a surfactant phase, an oil phase, and water.

Abstract: Gelled or solid topically-effective compositions comprising a topically-active compound, like an antiperspirant compound; a borate crosslinker; a surfactant, and preferably, a nonionic surfactant or nonionic surfactant blend; a carrier comprising water; and, optionally, a hydrophobic compound, are disclosed.
