A method of treating hair and a hair shampoo-conditioner composition comprising a cleansing surfactant, a water-insoluble primary amine, a sufficient amount of a suitable-acid and a carrier comprising water, are disclosed. The shampoo-conditioner compositions effectively clean and condition the hair.
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/112,950, filed on Aug. 30, 1993 now abandoned.
The present invention relates to detergent compositions containing amine surfactants. More particularly, the invention is directed to detergent compositions containing anionic surfactants selected from the group consisting of alkyl alkoxylated sulfates and alkyl sulfates, said composition further containing specific primary and/or tertiary amines.
The invention provides the use of a hair benefit agent as an ingredient in a topical hair treatment composition for the purpose of targeting an active endogenous hair fiber enzyme when the composition is applied to the hair, thereby delivering a hair benefit via the interaction of the hair benefit agent with the enzyme.
Hair conditioning formulations containing a particular combination of cationic surfactants, have improved hair care benefits while maintaining excellent in-use characteristics. The compositions contain a first cationic surfactant such as cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, stearyl trimethyl ammonium chloride and behenyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. A second hydrophilically substituted cationic surfactant such as cocamidopropyl-N-2-hydroxyethylcarbamoylmethyldimethylammonium chloride, and a lipid material such as cetyl alcohol. Although formulations of the invention are based principally on cationic surfactant, and generally contain no anionic or amphoteric surfactant, they provide an acceptable level of cleaning and lathering whilst still conveying the wet slippy feel desired by consumers in connection with conventional hair conditioners.
Disclosed herein are hard surface cleaners and methods for creating and using them. The cleaners combine a monocarboxylic acid with an ampholytic surfactant having no carboxyl groups, in an aqueous solution. In one aspect, lactic acid, water, and sodium caprylo ampho hydroxpropyl sulphonate are present.
The present invention relates to a biocidal cleaning composition comprising a biocide, a surfactant of formula R--O--(G).sub.n, and an amphoteric surfactant; wherein R is an alkyl group; G is a saccharide residue; and n is a number from 0 4 to 10.
