Description

Cleaning composition {CLEANSING COMPOSITIONS}

Mild cosmetic compositions must meet a number of criteria including skin cleansing, foaming properties, and mild / low irritant / good feeling for the skin, hair, and ocular mucosa. The skin consists of several layers of cells that cover and protect the underlying tissue. Keratin and collagen fiber proteins form the backbone of its structure. The outermost part of the layer is referred to as the stratum corneum. Similarly, hair has a protective outer coating that encloses hair fibers called the cuticle. Anionic surfactants can penetrate the stratum corneum membranes and epidermis, destroy the membranes by degreasing and impair the barrier and water retention functions. Such interference with the skin and hair protection film can roughen the skin and irritate the eyes, which in turn can trigger the irritating immune response.

The ideal cosmetic cleanser should gently clean the skin or hair after frequent use without pulling the skin or irritating the eye mucosa, and without drying and / or degreasing the hair and skin. Most foam soaps, shower and bath products, shampoos and bars do not meet this.

Some synthetic surfactants are known to be mild. However, a major disadvantage of some mild synthetic surfactant systems when formulated for shampoo or body cleansing can be described as a "slip" or "non-draggy" rinse feeling that some users dislike. I have a feeling. On the other hand, with the use of certain surfactants such as potassium laurate, a "stripping" rinse feel can be obtained, but clinical skin softness is lost. These two facts make the selection of suitable surfactants in the formulation process with the advantage of rinsing feeling and mildness in a sophisticated balancing operation.

Accordingly, there is a need for a body cleansing composition that delivers a “stripping” rinsing feeling and at the same time has good skin softness as well as good product properties such as foam and skin feel properties in use.

Body cleansing compositions that have a “stripping” rinse feel and at the same time good mild properties are provided by combining certain water-insoluble oils, such as certain polyalphaolefin oils, with a mild water soluble surfactant system.

Such oil-containing systems improve the cleaning feel, but are not always successful in terms of product stability, rheology properties and product dispensability. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that this is due to the low density properties of the oil. Therefore, it would be desirable to improve the stability and rheology properties of the system.

Conventional body cleansing compositions use materials such as benton gels and ethylene glycol distearate. Hydroxyl-containing crystalline stabilizing substances such as trihydroxystearin are known for use in liquid skin cleansers. WO 96/25144 describes stress stable foamy skin cleansing compositions containing hydroxy containing crystalline stabilizers, lipid skin moisturizers, surfactants and water. GB-A-2297975 describes body cleansing compositions containing surfactants, water insoluble salts of C ₁₄ -C ₂₂ fatty acids, optionally cationic or anionic polymeric skin conditioning agents, trihydroxystearin and water.

Incorporation of hydroxy-containing crystalline materials such as trihydroxystearin into body cleaning compositions containing mildly water soluble surfactant systems and certain low density polyolefin oils significantly improves product stability, rheology properties and thickening properties, while It was surprisingly found that a good rinsing feeling was provided.

Manufacturing method

The composition can be prepared by first making a premix of the surfactant and suspending agent. This is done by blending the surfactant, the appropriate amount of water, the powder preservative and the pH adjuster with gentle shaking. The mixture is then heated to about 90 ° C., with the addition of fatty alcohol / fatty acid and Thixcin R with shaking.

The mixture is held at high temperature for 5 minutes to 1 hour and then cooled with a heat exchanger at a controlled rate of about 30-40 ° C. to allow the suspension to crystallize.

The remaining water is added to the preliminary mixture, followed by water insoluble oil, residual amount of surfactant, liquid preservative and perfume. This part of the process is carried out at room temperature with gentle shaking to obtain the desired drop diameter of 5 to 20 microns.

The product provides excellent rinsing and mild feeling as well as excellent flow properties during storage, dispensing and use and excellent efficacy including skin conditioning, skin wetting, good product stability, cleaning and foaming.
