Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hair care composition comprising optical brighteners which alter the color of the hair, while enhancing the shininess of the hair, and protecting the hair from further damage. More specifically, the present invention relates to a hair care composition comprising anionic optical brightener complex.
  • the desire to regain the natural color and shine of damaged hair and the desire to alter the color of the hair to be more appealing are widely held. Damaged hair is perceived by the consumer as unfavorable appearances and less manageability of the hair. Such unfavorable appearances include alteration and fading of original color, less shine, and less luster.
  • a common way for alleviating the unfavorable appearances of damaged hair and to achieve appealing hair color is to dye the hair to the color desired. Dyeing the hair would provide the consumer with a stable color of hair for a relatively long period. However, dyeing the hair is generally time-consuming, cumbersome, and messy. Dyestuff may also be chemically harsh to the hair, scalp, and skin. The hair can be further damaged by dyeing. Thus, hair dye products are not suitable for daily use. Further, dyeing can leave the hair with a dull appearance, making the hair look less shiny.
  • optical brightener alone in hair care compositions may not provide desired conditioning benefit, and may not sufficiently or uniformly deposit on the hair.

If required, the polymeric materials such as Carbomer and Acrylates/Steareth-20 Methacrylate Copolymer may be neutralized after dispersing. The mixture is then heated up to above 60°C, and fatty alcohols and emulsifiers are added if included in the formulation. After cooling down to below 50°C, the remaining components are added with agitation then cooled down to about 30°C. Ethanol is added here if included in the formula. A triblender and mill can be used if necessary to disperse the materials. As appropriate, the mixture thus obtained can be packed into an aerosol can with propellant.

To this mixture are added the other ingredients except for silicone emulsion (if present), perfume, and salt; the obtained mixture is agitated. If present, the silicone emulsion is made with Dimethicone or Dimethiconol, a small amount of detersive surfactant, and a portion of water. The obtained mixture is then passed through a heat exchanger to cool, and the silicone emulsion, perfume, and salt are added. The obtained compositions are poured into bottles to make hair shampoo compositions.

Additional ingredients can be added either to this hot premix or after cooling the premix. The ingredients are mixed thoroughly at the elevated temperature and then pumped through a high shear mill and then through a heat exchanger to cool them to ambient temperature. If present in the composition, silicone emulsified at room temperature in concentrated surfactant is added to the cooled mix.
