Description

Title of the invention: CLEANSING AND / OR CARE COMPOSITION FOR KERATINOUS MATERIALS technical field

[0001] This disclosure relates to a composition, preferably for cleansing and / or conditioning keratinous materials, preferably of the scalp and / or hair. The invention also relates to a method for cleansing and / or conditioning keratinous materials, preferably of the scalp and / or hair, using the composition of this disclosure. CONTEXT

[0002] Keratinous materials are widely present on the surface of the human body, for example, the skin, scalp, and hair. Many people have long sought to cleanse and soften keratinous materials in order to feel comfortable in their daily lives and at work. Various products, such as shampoos and conditioners, are developed to meet the care needs of people's keratinous materials, many of which are used to provide deep and gentle cleansing, repairing, and / or conditioning effects.

[0003] The cleansing of keratinous materials must be sufficiently effective because oily residues, such as dirt, excess sebum, and the presence of certain bacteria on the scalp surface, can lead to an unpleasant greasy appearance and / or an itchy sensation. Shampoo is used to remove dirt and lipids from the scalp and hair. Such a product, capable of providing a deep yet gentle cleansing effect, must have a good lathering profile. Furthermore, consumer expectations for shampoo are not limited to cleansing effects. They also expect shampoo to deliver excellent conditioning effects, such as a smooth and silky feel when dry, which facilitates hair combing.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a cosmetic composition, in particular a shampoo, that provides abundant lather and / or delivers a superior smooth texture in the dry state. Summary of the invention

[0005] The inventors have discovered that such a need can be satisfied by the composition according to the present disclosure.

[0006] According to a first aspect, the present disclosure relates to a composition, preferably for cleaning and / or caring for keratinous materials, comprising:

[0007] A) at least one anionic surfactant;

[0008] B) at least one sulfobetaine surfactant; and

[0009] C) polyquatemium-67.

[0010] According to a second aspect, the present disclosure relates to a process for cleaning and / or caring for keratinous materials, preferably hair and / or scalp, comprising at least one step of applying the composition according to the present disclosure to the keratinous materials.

[0011] According to a third aspect, the present disclosure relates to the use of the composition or a product according to the present disclosure for the cleansing and / or care of keratinous materials, preferably of the hair and / or scalp.

Start the kitchen mixer and stir the mixture for 1 minute; c. rapid transfer of the foam and liquid produced into a 500 ml graduated cylinder; d. reading the volume of foam.

[0108] 2. Smooth texture when dry

[0109] The smooth texture in the dry state of each composition of examples 1 and 2 of the invention and comparative examples 1 to 5 was evaluated as follows: I. Hair treatment with the following composition:

[0110] A strand of slightly damaged hair was selected. The hair was combed and wetted under running water. 12 g of each composition was applied evenly to the strand of slightly damaged hair from root to tip, and the composition was gently distributed through the hair by massaging with two Using fingers from root to tip (without tangling), work the product into a lather. Rinse the product under running tap water until all the lather is gone. Then, blow-dry your hair until it is completely dry. I. Evaluation of the smooth texture in the dry state:

[0111] The strand of hair was stroked with two fingers from the root, and the smoothness of the surface of the strand was assessed by 6 trained volunteers aged 25 to 45 years. They assigned scores as shown below, and the average of the scores was calculated.

[0112] The rating standard for the smooth texture feeling of dry hair of each composition was as follows.

[0113] Score 1: the lock of hair was very difficult to comb, comb jammed 9-10 times by tangled hair;

[0114] Score 2: the lock of hair was moderately difficult to comb, comb jammed 7-8 times by tangled hair;

[0115] Score 3: the lock of hair was slightly difficult to comb, comb jammed 5-6 times by tangled hair;

[0116] Score 4: the lock of hair was easy to comb, comb jammed 3-4 times by tangled hair; and

[0117] Score 5: the lock of hair was very easy to comb, comb jammed 2 times or less by tangled hair.

[0118] The results of the test relating to the volume of foam and the evaluation of the smooth texture in the dry state of each composition of examples 1 and 2 of the invention and comparative examples 1 and 5 are summarized in Table 3.
