摘要 |
The present invention relates to a substantially dry, disposable, personal cleansing product useful for both cleansing and conditioning the skin/hair and providing improved fragrance delivery. These articles are used by the consumer by wetting the dry article with water. The article comprises a water insoluble substrate, a lathering surfactant, and a fragrance-releasing complex. Preferably, the articles of the present invention further comprise a conditioning component. Use of the substrate enhances lathering at low surfactant levels, increases cleansing and exfoliation, optimizes delivery and deposition of conditioning ingredients, and provides desirable characteristics such as texture, thickness and bulk. As a result, this invention provides effective cleansing using low, and hence less irritating, levels of surfactant while providing superior conditioning benefits by using a substrate having desirable characteristics. The invention also encompasses products further comprising a coating material for encapsulating the fragrance-releasing complex. The invention also encompasses products comprising various active ingredients for delivery to the skin or hair. The invention also encompasses methods for manufacturing these products.
