A hair set retaining cosmetic material comprising a polymer complex prepared by (1) reacting an amino group containing polysiloxane having the formula: wherein A is selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, and an amino group containing alkylether group; R is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and a hydroxyl group; Q represents an amino containing alkyl group; m and n each represent a number of 0 to 3; x represents a number of 30 to 400; and y represents a number of 1 to 30 with an anionic group containing polymer; and (2) neutralizing a reaction product of step (1) with an alkaline compound to a neutralization ratio of 60-150%.
The invention relates to a cosmetic composition containing, in a cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium, at least one non-ionic surfactant of the alkylpolyglycoside family and/or a polyglycerol non-ionic surfactant, and at least one sequenced polydimethylsiloxane/polyoxyalkylene copolymer, as well as a process of cosmetic treatment consisting in applying a cosmetically effective quantity of this composition to keratinic materials.
A single phase hair conditioning composition having improved hair conditioning properties is described which contains, by weight, about 0.8% to 1.4% of a water-soluble nonionic cellulose polymer thickener, about 0.5% to 2.0% of a dipolar solvent such as propylene glycol, about 0.2% to 3.0% of a mono-C12-C22 alkyl, monomethyl ethoxy substituted quaternary ammonium salt conditioning agent, about 0.2% to 2.5% of a C10-C18 alkyl ethoxy methyl carboxylic acid conditioning agent having 1 to 23 ethoxy groups in the molecule and an aqueous medium, said composition being free of water-insoluble alkanol conditioners and of conditioning amounts of silicone conditioners. The mixture of ethoxy substituted quaternary ammonium salt conditioner and ethoxy methyl carboxylic acid conditioner provides enhanced hair conditioning results. Preferred compositions include one of more of the following: a mono C8-C18 alkyl tri-C1-C3 alkyl quaternary ammonium salt conditioner, a water-soluble cationic polymer conditioner, an alkanol ethoxylate nonionic conditioner and a dimethicone copolyol. Also within the scope of the invention is the method of conditioning the hair which employs the foregoing single phase composition.
Foamable, silicone oil compositions and methods of lubricating surfaces with such compositions. Compositions in accordance with the invention may be sprayed onto surfaces from aerosol canisters or other spray containers to form stable foams which do not run or drip, preferably for periods in excess of sixteen hours. A composition in accordance with the invention comprises an aqueous emulsion of a silicone oil. Oil-in-water emulsions of polysiloxanes, such as polydimethylsiloxane, having melting points no greater than about 32.degree. F. (0.degree. C.) are preferred. The composition further comprises a liquefiable gaseous propellant, preferably including a volatile liquid hydrocarbon or a mixture of volatile liquid hydrocarbons. The composition further comprises a solid, non-ionic lipophilic surfactant, preferably having an HLB value of about 3 to about 8, more preferably about 3.5 to about 6. Useful surfactants include fatty acid esters, fatty alcohol ethers and fatty acid amides. The high temperature stability of the composition may be improved by adding a high temperature foam stabilizer having a melting point greater than about 110.degree. F. (43.degree. C.). Preferred foam stabilizers include polar, linear saturated long chain fatty alcohols having twenty or more carbon atoms in the molecule.
