Description

COMPOSITIONS FOR CONDITIONING AND STYLING HAIR
[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0002] This patent application claims benefit of priority to United States Patent Application Serial No. 16/428,867, filed on May 31 , 2019, entitled "COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING POLYMERS AND AMINOSILICONE FOR CONDITIONING AND STYLING HAIR," and also claims benefit of priority to United States Patent Application Serial No. 16/428,872, filed on May 31 , 2019, entitled "COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING POLYMERS, WAX, AND CATIONIC SURFACTANT FOR CONDITIONING AND STYLING HAIR," the disclosures of which is incorporated by reference as if fully rewritten herein.
[0003] TECHNICAL FIELD
[0004] The instant disclosure relates to compositions, kits, and methods for treating hair including, for example, compositions, kits, and methods for conditioning hair to impart conditioning and styling including beneficial properties such as frizz control and hair manageability that include softness, smoothing, good combing properties, and retention of shape, and to retention of shape through one or more shampoos.
[0005] BACKGROUND
[0006] Many different types of hair styling products are commercially available that are aimed to help consumers achieve a desired look, including one or more of fuller hair, thicker hair, sleek and straight hair, frizz-free hair, and defined curls. These products are typically provided in forms that are applied after the shampooing and conditioning processes are completed. Consumers selected from traditional styling products that provide styling benefits such as shaping memory, hold, increased volume, and the like in order to achieve a desired look.
[0007] In one example, styling products are available that provide protection against external factors such as protection from moisture to minimize or reduce frizziness. To achieve this benefit, a water-resistant film or coating may be applied to the hair using film-forming polymers. Depending on the chemical make-up of the film-forming polymers, product formulations that include these polymers can tend to be viscous, i.e. as the concentration of the polymer increases its viscosity builds up rapidly. T ranslated to styling applications, as the solvent evaporates, the polymer solution becomes thicker on the hair surface, leaving a sticky or tacky film residue on the hair. This often leaves hair with a stiff and/or "crunchy" feeling (i.e. the films become hard and brittle and therefore have a crunchy feel or sound when manipulated), which is undesirable to many consumers.
[0008] Increasingly, consumers seek hair products that have a natural look and feel, impart good styling benefits to hair, are durable, and lack the drawbacks of current products, such as the stiff and crunchy effects created by the thick coatings of many styling products. Further, consumers seek products that offer multiple benefits, for example, combining frizz reduction and style hold with softening, straightening and curl definition. Thus, there is a need for styling products that can confer the benefits sought by consumers using more natural ingredients and in products that complement the shampooing, conditioning and styling requirements of their customers.

[0055] DESCRIPTION
[0056] The composition in accordance with the disclosure provides unexpected and lasting benefits for hair styling when used as a rinse off product incorporated into an anionic, nonionic or amphoteric based conditioner system that is in some embodiments and oil in water emulsion or suspension. The unexpected benefits realized include but are not limited to frizz control, shape, discipline, style memory, and hair alignment to achieve looks that include hair smoothing, straightening, softening, and curl definition.
[0057] Managing, controlling, styling hair is something consumers must deal with on a daily basis, which typically involves daily time commitments to shampoo, condition, and style, which may include one or more of blow-dry and flat iron use in order to achieve a desired look. With the help of traditional hair styling products such as gels, mousse, sprays, creams, waxes, paste, balms and serums the desired style can be achieved, but they constitute additional steps in grooming the hair after the shampooing/conditioning process.
[0058] To address this context, a built-in treatment product that can provide styling, shaping, and manageability benefits to hair during the shampooing/conditioning process has been developed, as described herein. The composition according to the instant disclosure, embodied in a conditioner system or in a shampoo system or used in between a shampoo and a conditioner, or used after a conditioner, enables a lifestyle enhancement for consumers by providing a novel rinse-off styling technology for hair care and styling. The composition, in various embodiments, includes components which create a hydrophobic film on the hair that imparts one or more of benefits. The composition can be used in the shower/shampooing care process as a combined shampooing and/or conditioning and hair styling treatment which imparts softness, smoothing, good combing properties, and after drying hair, keeps hair soft, styled, shaped and smooth feeling with a long-lasting benefit that is retained through at least one shampooing, wherein shaping includes one or more of straightening and curling. Accordingly, the composition allows a consumer to have a simplified routine, integrating conditioning with styling and style manageability. The composition also provides protection to the hair from damage, for example, damage caused by heat, environmental stress, etc. And the benefits of the composition, in the various embodiments, are long lasting, as styled hair treated with the composition can survive washing or rinsing. Thus, hair maintains the desirable cosmetic properties imparted by the hair care compositions until the next shampooing, rinsing, etc.
[0059] Salon trials have shown that the composition, in various embodiments, delivers unexpected performance that includes long lasting style, ease of styling, frizz control, and enables the consumer to achieve hair styling with a natural look and feel without crunch. Also unexpectedly, the composition provides a“salon grade” look, that includes smoothing the hair and retained holding of style longer, i.e. , even after rinsing the hair; the hair looks shiny, soft and smooth from root to tip, it also aligns the hair from root to tip. Further, as described in the exemplified embodiments, the styling compositions show a benefit for a wide range of curl patterns and demographics, providing for well defined, frizz free curls that unexpectedly exceed consumers’ expectations in delivering superior long-lasting benefits. Hair is easy to detangle, soft, shiny, bouncy with movement, including well-defined curls and no frizz. [0060] It will be appreciated that in the various embodiments, in some examples compositions that are cationic based will not include anionic reagents and likewise those that are anionic based will not include cationic reagents.
[0061] Embodiments of a hair care composition containing polymers and aminosilicone for conditioning and styling hair.
[0062] The composition according to the disclosure containing polymers and aminosilicone for conditioning and styling hair comprises, in various embodiments, water that is, in some embodiments, present at a level of at least 20% by weight of composition. The composition also includes in an anionic, nonionic or amphoteric system a novel association of polysaccharide, for example, Inulin, and a film-forming polymer, for example polysilicone-29. In some particular embodiments, the composition includes one or a combination of surfactants that include one or more anionic, nonionic, cationic, or amphoteric surfactants. This novel association exhibits synergy to create a hydrophobic film on the hair that confers softening and styling control to achieve styles that include one or more of hair smoothing, straightening, defined curl, and damage protection with a long-lasting effect. In the various embodiments, that may include one or more additional components selected from fatty compounds, and styling polymers, the composition may be embodied to deliver one or more of smoothing, straightening and curling/curl defining style features.
[0063] While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is posited that the compositions provide the hair with a hydrophobic, flexible, film or film-like coating that is long-lasting, has a very natural look and feel, and improves the styling properties of the hair. The compositional components that include the polysaccharide and the film-forming polymer contribute to the lightweight texture and provides the smooth hair. Addition of fatty compounds and one or more of anionic polymers and/or nonionic polymers and/or amphoteric and nonionic surfactants confer additional benefits to achieve styling and one or more of control, and hair smoothing, and curl definition.
[0064] The hair care composition can be used at home during an individual’s regular shampooing and/or conditioning routine and therefore do not require special procedures that are only available at professional salons. Accordingly, the instant disclosure relates to individual products that comprise the composition in a conditioner vehicle, and kits that include a hair care composition of the instant disclosure together with other compositions. The kits typically include at least one hair care composition according to the instant disclosure (a hair care composition comprising one or more polysaccharides, one or more nonionic or amphoteric surfactants, one or more anionic or nonionic polymers, and water, etc.) and one or more additional hair care compositions, for example, a shampoo. The various hair care compositions are separately contained in the kits. In some instances, the kits include one or more hair care compositions (according the instant disclosure) and a shampoo, each of which are separately contained.

The unexpected benefits realized include but are not limited to frizz control, shape, discipline, style memory, and hair alignment to achieve looks that include hair smoothing, straightening, softening, and curl definition.
[0067] Managing, controlling, styling hair is something consumers must deal with on a daily basis, which typically involves daily time commitments to shampoo, condition, and style, which may include one or more of blow-dry and flat iron use in order to achieve a desired look. With the help of traditional hair styling products such as gels, mousse, sprays, creams, waxes, paste, balms and serums the desired style can be achieved, but they constitute additional steps in grooming the hair after the shampooing/conditioning process.
[0068] To address this context, a built-in treatment product that can provide styling, shaping, and manageability benefits to hair during the shampooing/conditioning process has been developed, as described herein. The composition according to the instant disclosure, embodied in a shampoo and/or conditioner system or used in between a shampoo and a conditioner, enables a lifestyle enhancement for consumers by providing a novel rinse-off styling technology for hair care and styling. The composition, in various embodiments, includes components which create a hydrophobic film on the hair that imparts one or more of benefits. The composition can be used in the shower/shampooing care process as a combined conditioning and hair styling treatment which imparts softness, smoothing, good combing properties, and after drying hair, keeps hair soft, styled, shaped and smooth feeling with a long-lasting benefit that is retained through at least one shampooing, wherein shaping includes one or more of straightening and curling. Accordingly, the composition allows a consumer to have a simplified routine, integrating conditioning with styling and style manageability. The composition also provides protection to the hair from damage, for example, damage caused by heat, environmental stress, etc. And the benefits of the composition, in the various embodiments, are long lasting, as styled hair treated with the composition can survive washing or rinsing. Thus, hair maintains the desirable cosmetic properties imparted by the hair care compositions until the next shampooing, rinsing, etc.
[0069] Salon trials have shown that the composition, in various embodiments, delivers unexpected performance that includes long lasting style, ease of styling, frizz control, and enables the consumer to achieve hair styling with a natural look and feel without crunch. Also, unexpectedly, the composition provides a“salon grade” look, that includes smoothing the hair and retained holding of style longer, i.e. , even after rinsing the hair; the hair looks shiny, soft and smooth from root to tip, it also aligns the hair from root to tip. Further, as described in the exemplified embodiments, the styling compositions show a benefit for a wide range of curl patterns and demographics, providing for well defined, frizz free curls that unexpectedly exceed consumers’ expectations in delivering superior long-lasting benefits. Hair is easy to detangle, soft, shiny, bouncy with movement, including well-defined curls and no frizz.
[0070] The composition according to the disclosure comprises, in various embodiments, water that is, in some embodiments, present at a level of at least 20%, or at least 50%, or at least 70% by weight of composition. The composition also includes in a cationic system a novel association of polysaccharide, for example, Inulin, a wax, for example, candelilla wax, a cationic surfactant, for example, Behentrimonium Chloride, and at least one a film-forming aminosilicone polymer formed by the reaction between a glycidoxypropyl-terminated dimethyl siloxane polymer, PEG-13 diglycidyl ether, diethylaminopropylamine, and aminopropyltriisopropoxysilane, for example polysilicone- 29. This novel association exhibits synergy to create a hydrophobic film on the hair that confers softening and styling control to achieve styles that include one or more of hair smoothing, straightening, defined curl, and damage protection with a long-lasting effect.
[0071] In an embodiment, the composition of the present disclosure is in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion and includes at least one fatty alcohol. In the various embodiments, the composition of the present disclosure may include one or more additional components selected from fatty compounds other than fatty alcohols, cationic polymers, nonionic polymers, styling polymers, and silicone compounds and the composition may be embodied to deliver one or more of smoothing, straightening and curling/curl defining style features, in particular, during the shampooing and conditioning process.
[0072] In an embodiment, the composition of the present disclosure is a rinse-off composition, i.e. , the composition is washed off the hair after the hair is contacted with the composition. In an embodiment, the composition of the present disclosure is allowed to remain on the hair for at least 30 second, or up to 30 minutes, before it is rinsed off the hair.
[0073] While not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is posited that the compositions provide the hair with a hydrophobic, flexible, film or film-like coating that is long-lasting, has a very natural look and feel, and improves the styling properties of the hair. The compositional components that include the polysaccharide and the film-forming polymer contribute to the lightweight texture and provides the smooth hair feel, while the wax helps with the shaping of the hair to confer one or more of straight and smooth hair and defined curls, while the cationic surfactant provides the antistatic properties to hair and also acts as a hair conditioning agent. When the composition of the present disclosure is in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, at least one fatty alcohol is present which helps with the formation of a stable emulsion. Addition of fatty compounds other than fatty alcohols and one or more of cationic polymers, nonionic polymers, styling polymers, and silicones confer additional benefits to achieve styling and control of one or more of hair smoothing and curl definition. [0074] The hair care composition can be used at home during an individual’s regular shampooing and/or conditioning routine and therefore do not require special procedures that are only available at professional salons. Accordingly, the instant disclosure relates to individual products that comprise the composition in a conditioner vehicle, and kits that include a hair care composition of the instant disclosure together with other compositions. The kits typically include at least one hair care composition according to the instant disclosure (a hair care composition comprising one or more polysaccharides, one or more waxes, one or more cationic surfactants, one or more film forming silicone polymers, and water, etc.) and one or more additional hair care compositions, for example, a shampoo and/or a conditioner. The various hair care compositions are separately contained in the kits. In some instances, the kits include one or more hair care compositions (according the instant disclosure) and a shampoo and/or a conditioner, each of which are separately contained.
[0075] Components for one or more inventive embodiments that include a hair care composition containing polymers and aminosilicone for conditioning and styling hair and a hair care composition containing polymers, wax, and cationic surfactant for conditioning and styling hair.
[0076] Polysaccharide
[0077] In accordance with (i) embodiments of the disclosure that include a hair care composition containing polymers and aminosilicone for conditioning and styling hair, and (ii) embodiments of the disclosure that include a hair care composition containing polymers, wax, and cationic surfactant for conditioning and styling hair the hair care composition includes in the various embodiments, at least one polysaccharide.
[0078] In general, the polysaccharide may be chosen from polysaccharides isolated from algae, polysaccharides produced by microorganisms, and polysaccharides from higher plants, such as homogeneous polysaccharides. In particular, the polysaccharides may be chosen from fructans, galactans, pullulan, and derivatives thereof. In other examples, the polysaccharides may comprise methylcelluloses, hydroxyalkylcelluloses, ethylhydroxyethylcelluloses and carboxymethylcelluloses, mannans, xylans, lignins, arabans, galacturonans, alginate-based compounds, chitin, chitosans, glucuronoxylans, arabinoxylans, xyloglucans, glucomannans, pectic acids and pectins, arabinogalactans, agars, glycosaminoglycans, gum arabics, tragacanth gums, ghatti gums, karaya gums, locust bean gums, galactomannans such as guar gums and nonionic derivatives thereof, in particular hydroxypropyl guar, and ionic derivatives thereof, biopolysaccharide gums of microbial origin, in particular scleroglucan or xanthan gums, mucopolysaccharides, and in particular chondroitin sulfates, and mixtures thereof.
[0079] In some embodiments, the at least one polysaccharide may be chosen from fructans, galactans, pullulan, derivatives thereof and combinations thereof.
[0080] According to the various embodiments, the at least one polysaccharide may be chemically modified, especially with urea or urethane groups, or by a hydrolysis, oxidation, esterification, etherification, sulfatation, phosphatation, amination, amidation or alkylation reaction, or by several of these modifications. The derivatives obtained may be anionic, cationic, amphoteric or nonionic.
[0081] Polysaccharides Isolated from Algae: Fructosans
[0082] In some particular embodiments, the polysaccharide according to the invention may especially be a fructosan chosen from inulin and derivatives thereof (especially dicarboxy and carboxymethyl inulins). Fructans or fructosans are oligosaccharides or polysaccharides comprising a sequence of anhydrofructose units optionally combined with several saccharide residues other than fructose. Fructans may be linear or branched. Fructans may be products obtained directly from a vegetable or microbial source or alternatively products whose chain length has been modified (increased or decreased) by fractionation, synthesis or hydrolysis, in particular enzymatic. Fructans generally have a degree of polymerization from 2 to about 1000 and, in some embodiments, from 2 to about 60.
[0083] Three groups of fructans are distinguished. The first group corresponds to products whose fructose units are for the most part linked via b(2, 1 ) bonds. These are essentially linear fructans such as inulins. The second group also corresponds to linear fructoses, but the fructose units are essentially linked via b(2,6) bonds. These products are levans. The third group corresponds to mixed fructans, i.e. fructans containing b(2,6) and b(2, 1 ) sequences. These are essentially branched fructans, such as graminans. Inulin is also referred to technically as Alantin, Fructosane, Synantherin, and Synanthrin.
[0084] Inulin may be obtained, for example, from chicory, dahlia or Jerusalem artichoke, in some embodiments, from chicory. Inulin is the polysaccharide that conforms to the formula:
Figure imgf000021_0001
[0085] In particular, the polysaccharide, especially the inulin, has a degree of polymerization from 2 to about 1000 and, in some embodiments, from 2 to about 60, and a degree of substitution of less than 2 on the basis of one fructose unit. The inulin used for this invention is represented, for example, by the products available under the tradename INUTEC H25P (CREACHEM), also sold under the name Beneo™ Inulin by the company Orafti, and under the name Frutafit® by the company Sensus.
[0086] Table 1 : Inulin Properties vs Polyurethane and PVP
Figure imgf000021_0002
[0087] Polysaccharides Isolated from Algae: Galactans
[0088] In some particular embodiments, the polysaccharide according to the invention may be a galactan chosen especially from agar and carrageenans. Galactans of agar type are galactose polysaccharides contained in the cell wall of some of these species of red algae (Rhodophyceae) belonging to the Gigartinaceae, Hypneaceae, Furcellariaceae and Polyideaceae families. They are formed from a polymer group in which the base backbone is a b(1 ,3) D-galactopyranose and a(1 ,4) L 3-6 anhydrogalactose chain, these units repeating regularly and alternately. The differences within the agar family are due to the presence or absence of methyl or carboxyethyl solvated groups. These hybrid structures are generally present in variable percentage, depending on the species of algae and the season of harvest.
[0089] They are generally obtained by hot aqueous extraction from natural strains of the said algae. These linear polymers, formed by disaccharide units, are composed of two D-galactopyranose units alternately linked via a(1 ,3) and b(1 ,4) bonds. These are highly sulfated polysaccharides (20-50%) and the a-D-galactopyranosyl residues may be in 3,6-anhydro form. According to the number and position of the ester sulfate groups on the repeat disaccharide of the molecule, several types of carrageenan are distinguished, namely: kappa-carrageenans, which bear one ester sulfate group, iota-carrageenans which bear two ester sulfate groups, and lambda-carrageenans which bear three ester sulfate groups.
[0090] Carrageenans are composed essentially of potassium, sodium, magnesium, triethanolamine and/or calcium salts and of ester sulfates of polysaccharides. Carrageenans are sold especially by the company SEPPIC under the name Solagum®, by the company Gelymar under the names Carragel®, Carralact® and Carrasol®, by the company Cargill under the names Satiagel™ and Satiagum™, and by the company CP-Kelco under the names Genulacta®, Genugel® and Genuvisco®.
[0091] Polysaccharides Produced by Microorganisms: Pullulan
[0092] In some particular embodiments, the polysaccharide according to the invention may be pullulan. Pullulan is a polysaccharide consisting of maltotriose units, known under the name a(1 ,4)-a(1 ,6)-glucan. Three glucose units in maltotriose are connected via an a(1 ,4) glycosidic bond, whereas the consecutive maltotriose units are connected to each other via an a(1 ,6) glycosidic bond. Pullulan is produced, for example, under the reference Pullulan PF 20 by the company Hayashibara in Japan.
[0093] In general, the compounds of this type that may be used in the present invention are chosen from those described especially in Kirk-Othmer's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Third Edition, 1982, volume 3, pp. 896-900, and volume 15, pp. 439-458, in Polymers in Nature by E. A. McGregor and C. T. Greenwood, published by John Wiley & Sons, Chapter 6, pp. 240-328, 1980, in the publication by Robert L. Davidson entitled Handbook of Water-soluble Gums and Resins published by McGraw- Hill Book Company (1980) and in Industrial Gums— Polysaccharides and their Derivatives, edited by Roy L. Whistler, Second Edition, published by Academic Press Inc.

[00105] The at least one wax may be the form of a mixture of waxes. In the various embodiments, wax is generally a lipophilic compound that is solid at room temperature (25 °C), with a solid/liquid reversible change of state, having a melting point of greater than or equal to 45 °C, , in some embodiments, ranging from 45 to 95 °C and more particularly ranging from 45 to 85 °C. Thus, the at least one wax is chosen from waxes with a melting point of greater than 45 °C comprising esters having a chain length of one or more C40-C70 ester compounds and not comprising any C20-C39 ester compounds.
[00106] The content of ester comprising from 40 to 70 carbon atoms and, in some embodiments, ranges from 20% to 100% by weight and , in some embodiments, from 20% to 90% by weight relative to the total weight of wax(es). Candelilla wax is derived from the leaves of the Mexican shrub Euphorbia antisyphilitica. Candelilla wax is obtained from a shrub named Euphorbia Cerifera, indigenous to northern Mexico. The wax protects the plant against the environment and prevents excessive evaporation. Candelilla wax consists of hydrocarbons (ca. 50 %, C29-C33, mainly C31 ), esters, phytosterols, free fatty acids, free fatty alcohols and resins.
[00107] Candelilla wax has a high oil binding capacity and is less sticky than beeswax. It is used to adjust viscosity in water-in-oil emulsions. It imparts gloss and hardness in cosmetic products such as hair wax and lipstick. Candelilla wax contains up to 45% hydrocarbons and 20-30% fatty esters. NCI name: Euphorbia cerifera cera; Melting point: 68-73 °C.
[00108] Sunflower wax is obtained by dewaxing sunflower oil. Sunflower wax has a high oil binding capacity and a non-sticky skin feel. It imparts gloss to formulations and stabilizes water-in-oil emulsions. This wax contains approximately 30% hydrocarbons and 70% fatty esters. Behenyl acetate, lignoceryl acetate and methyl lignocerate are the main wax esters. INCI name: Helianthus annuus seed cera, Melting point: 74-80 °C.
[00109] In some particular embodiments, the at least one wax comprises one or candelilla wax, sunflower wax and combinations thereof. [00110] In accordance with the various embodiments, the amount of each of the at least one wax is from about 0.1 % to about 10%, or from about 0.2% to about 4%, or from about 0.3% to about 3%, or from about 0.5% to about 2.5% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00111] In accordance with the various embodiments, the total amount of wax present in the compositions can range from about 0.1 % to about 20%, or from about 0.5% to about 10%, or from about 1 % to about 5% or any suitable combination, sub combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00112] Thus, any one of the at least one wax is present, by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, from about 0.1 , 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, to about 10 weight percent, including increments and ranges therein and there between.

[00118] A more exhaustive list of surfactants that may be included in the hair care compositions is provided hereinbelow, under the headings“Non-ionic Surfactants” and “Amphoteric Surfactants.”
[00119] In accordance with some embodiments, the amount of each of the at least one surfactant is from about 0.1 % to about 15%, or from about 0.2% to about 10%, or from about 0.2% to about 5%, or from about 0.5% to about 3% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00120] In accordance with the various embodiments, when present, the total amount of surfactant present in the compositions can range from about 0.1 % to about 25%, or from about 0.1 % to about 10%, or from about 0.1 % to about 5%, or from about 0.5% to about 3% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

In some particular embodiments, the composition may include one or more emulsifiers, for example, octyldodecanol (and) octyldodecyl xyloside
[00317] In accordance with the various embodiments, when present, an additive is from about 0.1 % to about 10%, or from about 0.1 % to about 8%, or from about 0.2% to about 7%, or from about 1 % to about 5%, or from about 1 .5% to about 3% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00318] In accordance with the various embodiments, when present, the total amount of additive present in the compositions can range from about 0.1 % to about 15%, or from about 0.5% to about 12%, or from about 1 % to about 10%, or from about 1 .5% to about 5% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00319] Thus, when present, an additive is present, by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, from about 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1 1 , 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, to about 20 weight percent, including increments and ranges therein and there between.
[00320] In some particular embodiments, the composition includes one or more preservatives. Suitable preservatives include, but are not limited to, glycerin containing compounds (e.g., glycerin or ethylhexylglycerin or phenoxyethanol), benzyl alcohol, parabens (methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, isobutylparaben, etc.), sodium benzoate, benzoic acid, chlorhexidine digluconate, ethylenediamine- tetraacetic acid (EDTA), potassium sorbate, and/or grapefruit seed extract, or a mixture thereof. Other preservatives are known in the cosmetics industries and include salicylic acid, DMDM Hydantoin, Formaldahyde, Chlorphenism, Triclosan, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Diazolidinyl Urea, Sorbic Acid, Methylisothiazolinone, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Dehydroacetic Acid, Quaternium-15, Stearalkonium Chloride, Zinc Pyrithione, Sodium Metabisulfite, 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane, Chlorhexidine Digluconate, Polyaminopropyl biguanide, Benzalkonium Chloride, Sodium Sulfite, Sodium Salicylate, Citric Acid, Neem Oil, Essential Oils (various), Lactic Acid, Vitamin E (tocopherol), and a mixture thereof.

[00321] In accordance with the various embodiments, when present, an additive in the form of one or more preservative is from about 0.1 % to about 5%, or from about 0.2% to about 5%, or from about 0.3% to about 5%, or from about 1.5% to about 3% or any suitable combination, sub-combination, range, or sub-range thereof by weight, based on the weight of the composition. One of ordinary skill in the art, however, will appreciate that other ranges are within the scope of the invention.
[00322] Compositions, Methods of Use and Application, and Kits [00323] The compositions described throughout the instant disclosure may be in a variety of different forms, including but not limited to gels, lotions, creams, emulsions, pastes, milks, sprays, serums, and the like. The compositions may be rinse-off or leave- in treatments.
[00324] In various embodiments, the composition is in the form of an aqueous solution. In an embodiment, the composition is in the form of an emulsion, such as a water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion. In one embodiment, the composition is a conditioner in the form of an W/O emulsion. In an embodiment, the compositions may be in the form of a dispersion. In an embodiment, the composition is a rinse-off treatment for conditioning and/or styling and/or shaping hair.
[00325] Additionally, when used on hair, the compositions may provide one or more desirable cosmetic and/or styling benefits to the hair, for example, smoothness, detangling, and shine. Accordingly, the compositions are useful in methods for conditioning hair, and methods for imparting frizz control, manageability, smoothness, detangling, and/or shine to hair. Accordingly, the instant disclosure encompasses methods for treating hair with the compositions of the instant disclosure. Such methods may include simply applying a composition of the instant disclosure to the hair, and optionally rinsing the hair.
[00326] In some cases, methods of using the compositions include shampooing and/or conditioning the hair with a composition of the instant disclosure. In other cases, methods of using the composition include using it as a stand-alone composition to treat the hair, or mixing it with a conventional shampoo before shampooing the hair, or using it as a post-shampoo or post-conditioner or post-hair masque treatment (either leave-in or rinse-off treatment). Such methods typically include applying an effective amount of a hair treatment composition of the instant disclosure to the hair, allowing the composition to remain on the hair for a period of time, and subsequently optionally rinsing the composition from the hair. The period of time for which the composition is allowed to remain on the hair is usually not long, e.g., not longer than about 5 minutes. Usually, the composition is merely allowed to remain on the hair for a period of time sufficient to incorporate the composition throughout the hair, for example, by lathering or spreading the composition throughout the hair using one’s hands. The amount of time is sufficient for the composition to interact with the hair and any dirt, oil, contamination, etc., that may exist on the hair so that when rinsed, the agents of the composition can interact with the hair to condition it and confer styling benefits. Thus, the composition may be allowed to remain on the hair for about 5 seconds to about 30 minutes, about 5 seconds to about 15 minutes, about 5 seconds to about 10 minutes, about 5 seconds to about 5 minutes, about 10 seconds to about 5 minutes, or about 10 seconds to about 3 minutes.
[00327] As is common when using shampoo and/or conditioner and/or masque compositions, the hair may be wetted or rinsed with water prior to application of the hair treatment composition of the instant disclosure. Having water already in the hair can be helpful, e.g. for creating lather when applying compositions such as shampoos because the water interacts with the surfactants of the shampoo’s surfactant system.
[00328] Typically, a shampoo and a conditioner are used in a hair care routine in the form of a bundle system in order to cleanse then condition the hair. Optionally, another composition, e.g. a masque, may be used after a conditioner in order to impart deeper conditioning to the hair or to deliver other active or benefit agents such as styling agent to the hair. Optionally, a pre-shampoo treatment composition may also be applied onto hair before shampooing in order to deliver additional benefits to the hair. Optionally, an in-shower treatment composition may be mixed, in situ on hair or before treating hair, with a shampoo and/or conditioner in order to enhance the cleansing and/or conditioning of the hair. As such, it is possible to have kits comprising one, two, three, or more of these compositions, each composition packaged separately. Any known means of packaging the compositions separately in a kit may be used, e.g. separate bottles or containers for each composition, a single bottle with separate compartments for each composition, etc.

[00415] Thus, the term “a mixture thereof” also relates to “mixtures thereof.” Throughout the disclosure, if the term “a mixture thereof” is used, following a list of elements as shown in the following example where letters A-F represent the elements: “one or more elements selected from the group consisting of A, B, C, D, E, F, or mixtures thereof.” The term,“a mixture thereof” does not require that the mixture include all of A, B, C, D, E, and F (although all of A, B, C, D, E, and F may be included). Rather, it indicates that a mixture of any two or more of A, B, C, D, E, and F can be included. In other words, it is equivalent to the phrase“one or more elements selected from the group consisting of A, B, C, D, E, F, and a mixture of any two or more of A, B, C, D, E, and F.”
[00416] Likewise, the term “a salt thereof” also relates to“salts thereof.” Thus, where the disclosure refers to“an element selected from the group consisting of A, B, C, D, E, F, a salt thereof, or mixtures thereof,” it indicates that that one or more of A, B, C, D, and F may be included, one or more of a salt of A, a salt of B, a salt of C, a salt of D, a salt of E, and a salt of F may be include, or a mixture of any two of A, B, C, D, E, F, a salt of A, a salt of B, a salt of C, a salt of D, a salt of E, and a salt of F may be included.
[00417] The salts referred to throughout the disclosure may include salts having a counter-ion such as an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, or ammonium counterion. This list of counterions, however, is non-limiting.
[00418] The expression “one or more” means“at least one” and thus includes individual components as well as mixtures/combinations.
[00419] The term“plurality” means“more than one” or“two or more.”
[00420] Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients and/or reaction conditions can be modified in all instances by the term“about,” meaning within +/- 1 %, 2%, 3%, 4%, or 5% of the indicated number.
[00421] Some of the various categories of components identified for the hair care compositions may overlap. In such cases where overlap may exist and the composition/product includes two overlapping components (or more than two overlapping components), an overlapping component does not represent more than one component. For example, a fatty acid may be defined as both a “fatty compound” and a “surfactant/emulsifier.” If a particular composition/product includes both a fatty compound component and an emulsifier component, a single fatty acid can serve as only a fatty compound or a surfactant/emulsifier (a single fatty acid does not serve as both the fatty compound and the surfactant/emulsifier).
[00422] All percentages, parts and ratios herein are based upon the total weight of the compositions of the present invention, unless otherwise indicated.
[00423] All ranges and values disclosed herein are inclusive and combinable. For examples, any value or point described herein that falls within a range described herein can serve as a minimum or maximum value to derive a sub-range, etc. Furthermore, all ranges provided are meant to include every specific range within, and combination of sub ranges between, the given ranges. Thus, a range from 1 -5, includes specifically points 1 , 2, 3, 4 and 5, as well as sub-ranges such as 2-5, 3-5, 2-3, 2-4, 1 -4, etc.; and points of 1 , 2, 3, 4, and 5 includes ranges and sub-ranges of 1 -5, 2-5, 3-5, 2-3, 2-4, 1 -4, etc.
[00424] All numbers herein are understood to be modified by“about,” whether or not expressly stated. Additionally, all numbers are intended to represent exact figures as additional embodiments, whether or not modified by“about.” For example,“an amount of about 1 %” includes an amount of exactly 1 %. As a further example,“an amount of 1 %” includes an amount of about 1 %. The term“about” is generally understood to encompass a range of +/- 10% from the stated number, and is intended to cover amounts of +/- 1 %, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, and 10%.
[00425] The term“surfactants” includes salts of the surfactants even if not explicitly stated. In other words, whenever the disclosure refers to a surfactant, it is intended that salts of the surfactant are also encompassed to the extent such salts exist, even though the specification may not specifically refer to a salt (or may not refer to a salt in every instance throughout the disclosure), for example, by using language such as“a salt thereof” or“salts thereof.” Sodium and potassium are common cations that form salts with surfactants. Flowever, additional cations such as ammonium ions, or alkanolammonium ions such as monoethanolammonium or triethanolammonium ions, may also form salts of surfactants.
[00426] The term“substantially free” or“essentially free” as used herein means the specific material may be present in small amounts that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics of the claimed invention. For instance, there may be less than 1 % by weight of a specific material added to a composition, based on the total weight of the compositions (provided that an amount of less than 1 % by weight does not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics of the claimed invention. Similarly, the compositions may include less than 0.5 wt%, less than 0.1 wt%, less than 0.05 wt%, or less than 0.01 wt%, or none of the specified material. Furthermore, all components that are positively set forth in the instant disclosure may be negatively excluded from the claims, e.g., a claimed composition may be“free,”“essentially free” (or“substantially free”) of one or more components that are positively set forth in the instant disclosure.
[00427] All publications and patent applications cited in this specification are herein incorporated by reference, and for any and all purposes, as if each individual publication or patent application were specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. In the event of an inconsistency between the present disclosure and any publications or patent application incorporated herein by reference, the present disclosure controls.
