Abstract
A solid particle for use in a personal care composition. The particle includes a C12-C22 fatty alcohol; an amidoamine cationic surfactant, an oil soluble acid having an AlogP of −1.2 or greater, less than 50% water and, optionally, a benefit agent. A plurality of the solid, discrete particles can be added to an aqueous carrier to form a personal care composition, or to a pre-existing personal care composition to provide a benefit. The particles have a relatively high melt point to reduce agglomeration and sintering during shipping and storage.
