Definitions

• the invention relates to aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic body-cleansing compositions for the mild cleansing and care of the skin, characterized by a content of oligoesters, comprising dicarboxylic acid units and diol units (glycol, alkylglycol and/or polyalkylene polyglycol units).
• Body-cleansing and body care in two steps is time-consuming, meaning that many consumers prefer compositions with a combined cleansing and care action.
• U.S. Pat. No. 5,612,307 claims aqueous, liquid body-cleansing compositions which, in addition to customary surfactant systems, comprise a care component from the group of silicone oils, fats, oils, waxes, hydrophobic plant extracts, fatty acids, alcohols, esters, lipids and/or phospholipids.
• WO 94/03152 claims shower gels consisting essentially of a surfactant, silicone oil and a cationic polymer.
• the invention provides aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic body-cleansing compositions, with the exception of hair-treatment compositions, comprising oligoesters obtained by condensation of one or more dicarboxylic acids or esters thereof and one or more polyhydric alcohols.
• These oligoesters are preferably obtained by polycondensation of one or more aromatic dicarboxylic acids or esters thereof with ethylene glycol and/or propylene glycol.
