Abstract
Aqueous liquid cleanser compositions are disclosed. The cleanser compositions are structured liquids capable of suspending a skin benefit agent therein to improve transfer of the skin benefit agent to the skin upon use of the wash. In one embodiment, the skin benefit agent is a lipid material, which remains on the skin after washing to provide skin barrier enhancement.
Claims57
A liquid cleanser composition comprising a lamellar structured liquid comprising from about 30% (by weight) to about 80% (by weight) of a surfactant, from about 1% (by weight) to about 30% (by weight) of a lipid phase, and from about 19% (by weight) to about 69% (by weight) water, wherein the lipid phase comprises from about 1% (by weight) to about 5% (by weight) of a sterol and from about 95% (by weight) to about 99% (by weight) of a natural fat or oil, and wherein the liquid cleanser composition has a viscosity of from about 10,000 cps to about 200,000 cps.
A liquid cleanser composition comprising a lamellar structured liquid comprising from about 30% (by weight) to about 80% (by weight) of a surfactant, from about 1% (by weight) to about 30% (by weight) of a skin protectant, and from about 19% (by weight) to about 69% (by weight) water, and wherein the liquid cleanser composition has a viscosity of from about 10,000 cps to about 200,000 cps.
A liquid cleanser composition comprising a lamellar structured liquid comprising from about 30% (by weight) to about 80% (by weight) of a surfactant, from about 1% (by weight) to about 30% (by weight) of a sunscreen active, and from about 19% (by weight) to about 69% (by weight) water, and wherein the liquid cleanser composition has a viscosity of from about 10,000 cps to about 200,000 cps.
