First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An anhydrous personal care composition, comprising: (a) at least one ester, wherein said at least one ester is selected from one or more of the following groups: (i) triglycerides, (ii) diglycerides, (iii) monoglycerides, (iv) monoesters of diols, and (v) diesters of diols, and wherein a total concentration of said at least one ester is 45 to 60 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition; (b) a first wax having a melting point of 35° C. to 72° C. present in an amount of 5 to 25 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition; (c) a second wax having a melting point of 73° C. to 90° C. present in an amount of 0.5 to 10 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition; and (d) at least one plant oil having a saponification value of 150 to 275 mg KOH/g, wherein a total concentration of said at least one plant oil is from 5 to 35 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition. 2 . The composition of any preceding claim 1 , wherein the first wax comprises at least one wax chosen from beeswax, candelilla wax, bayberry wax, and combinations thereof. 3 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the second wax comprises at least one wax chosen from hydrogenated castor oil, sunflower wax, carnauba wax, rice bran wax, and combinations thereof. 4 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the first wax is present in an amount of 8 to 18 weight % based on the total weight of the composition. 5 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the second wax is present in an amount of weight 0.5 to 5 weight % based on the total weight of the composition. 6 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the first wax has a melting point of 38° C. to 65° C. 7 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the second wax has a melting point of 78° C. to 85° C. 8 . (canceled) 9 . (canceled) 10 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the total concentration of the at least one ester is from 50 to 55 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition. 11 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one ester is selected from: monoglycerides of capric acid; monoglycerides of caprylic acid; capric triglyceride; caprylic triglyceride; stearic triglyceride; monoesters of ethylene glycol and stearic acid; acetylated glycol stearate; glyceryl dilaurate; propylene glycol dicaprate; 1,3-propanediol dicaprylate; PEG-6 caprylic/capric glycerides; cocoglycerides; and combinations thereof. 12 . (canceled) 13 . (canceled) 14 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the total concentration of the at least one plant oil is from 5 to 30 weight %, based on the total weight of the composition. 15 . (canceled) 16 . (canceled) 17 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one plant oil comprises at least one plant oil chosen from sunflower oil, high oleic sunflower oil, coconut oil, palm oil, sweet almond oil, castor oil, canola oil, soybean oil, avocado oil, olive oil, acai oil, andiroba oil, apricot kernel oil, argan oil, passion fruit oil, manila oil, mango oil, shea oil, macademia nut oil, brazil nut oil, borage oil, copaiba oil, grape seed oil, buriti oil, sesame oil, flaxseed oil, blueberry oil, cranberry oil, blackberry oil, plum oil, raspberry oil, babassu oil, camelina oil, camellia oil, walnut oil, wheat germ oil, calendula oil, cherry kernel oil, cucumber seed oil, papaya oil, aloe vera oil, hemp oil, safflower oil, or a combination of any two or more thereof. 18 . (canceled) 19 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one plant oil has a melting point of −25° C. to 30° C. 20 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one plant oil comprises a plant oil which has a saponification value of 150 to 200 mg KOH/g. 21 . (canceled) 22 . (canceled) 23 .
