HAIR CONDITIONING COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE

摘要

Hair-care compositions comprising an L-beta phase at 25°C have i) from 0.1% to 10% by weight of a cationic surfactant, ii) a fatty material selected from fatty alcohol, fatty acid, ethoxylated fatty alcohol and mixtures thereof, iii) 60% by weight or more of water; wherein the weight ratio of fatty alcohol to cationic surfactant is from 4:1 to 12:1 having less than 0.5% by weight of discrete particles of fatty material have improved conditioning properties. A process for their manufacture involves mixing an aqueous phase with the molten fatty material such that the resulting mix is 5°C or more lower in temperature than the chain melting temperature of the L-beta phase.
