Benefits of technology

[0013] Compositions exhibiting these preferred ratios of viscosities are extremely viscous at room temperature (25° C.) but become liquid at relatively low temperatures, allowing for ease in processing while contributing to stability...

Problems solved by technology

Disposable products are also a more sanitary alternative to the use of a sponge, washcloth, or other cleansing implement intended for extensive reuse, because such implements can develop bacterial growth, unpleasant odors, and other undesirable characteristics related to repeated use.
While a variety of cleansing compositions associated with substrates are known in the art, they are not appropriate for use where substantial amounts of cleansing composition can be deposited into the eye.

[0144] Results of Eye Sting Testing of articles comprising a water insoluble substrate and the cleansing composition of Example 1: Five (5) of the twenty (20) panelists experience some sort of eye irritation. Four (4) of these judged the irritation to be “mild” and the irritation occurred with only one of the four articles. Three (3) of these five (5) panelists call the irritation nothing more than a “mild sensation” like that of having water in the eyes. The fifth person experiences moderate irritation, like a particle is lodged in the corner of the eye, and again this occurs with only one of the four articles.

Abstract

Disclosed are cleansing compositions comprising one or more surfactants selected from the group consisting of: i) anionic surfactants, ii) amphoteric surfactants, iii) nonionic surfactants, iv) cationic surfactants and v) mixtures thereof, where the dynamic viscosity of the compositions at 25° C. is at least about 100,000 centipoise and where the cleansing composition results in no or minimal eye sting. Also disclosed disposable articles comprising water insoluble substrates releasably containing the cleansing compositions, a process for making the disposable articles and a method of use.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is a divisional application of U.S. application Ser. No. 10 / 654,176, filed Sep. 3, 2003 which is a division of U.S. application Ser. No. 09 / 725,649, filed Nov. 29, 2000, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,677,294 B2.TECHNICAL FIELD [0002] The present invention relates to cleansing compositions comprising one or more surfactants selected from the group consisting of: i) anionic surfactants, ii) amphoteric surfactants, iii) nonionic surfactants, iv) cationic surfactants and v) mixtures thereof, where the dynamic viscosity of the compositions at 25° C. is at least about 100,000 centipoise and where the cleansing composition results in no or minimal eye sting. [0003] The instant cleansing compositions are preferably used in releaseable combination with a disposable substrate as a personal cleansing product. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004] Personal care products, particularly cleansing and conditioning products, have traditionally been m...
