Abstract:
The present invention relates to oil-in-water emulsion-forming compositions having reduced whitening effect when applied on wet substrates. The oil-in-water emulsion compositions are suitable for use in personal care products, textile treatments, polishing products, gloss enhancements and water resistance treatments.

Abstract:
A hair fiber strengthening composition includes an aqueous vehicle containing as a hair strengthening additive a source of metal cations having a valence of 2 or 3 and anions derived from an oxidized carbohydrate, an inorganic acid and/or an organic acid, the composition having a pH of from about 6 to about 11.
Abstract:
A silicone composition, especially advantageous for incorporation in a personal care product, includes a silicone resin (a) and a silicone gum (b), the mixture of resin (a) and gum (b) having a softening point of 50° C. or greater and an elastic modulus at ambient temperature of 106 Pa or less.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a crosslinked polyacrylate salt, which has been neutralized by two types of amines: (1) amine groups attached to the polymer backbone of an aminosilicone and (2) water soluble organic amines. The compositions of the present invention can readily swell in water, displaying enhanced thickening, emulsifying, dispersing and producing film with water resistance compared to acrylate based thickener alone. The compositions can be used to formulate a wide variety of ingredients, such as, for example, fatty substances, humectants, solid particles, silicones, organic or inorganic sunscreens, without the need of further neutralizing agents, dispersants or emulsifiers.
