Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention is directed towards a composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one silicone-organic polymer hybrid compound; at least one nonionic film forming polymer; at least one amphoteric film forming polymer; and a neutralizer. The present invention also relates to methods for imparting shape to or maintaining the shape of hair wherein the composition provides style memory, strong hold and good shine, while at the same time, providing smoothness and a natural feel to the hair.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier: (a) at least one silicone-organic polymer hybrid compound; (b) at least one nonionic film forming polymer present in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 5% by weight; (c) at least one amphoteric film forming polymer present in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 3% by weight; (d) at least one neutralizer; and wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises a combination of water and at least one organic solvent chosen from volatile organic solvents wherein the at least one organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 10% by weight; wherein all weights are based on the total weight of the composition; and wherein (a) is Crotonic Acid/Vinyl C8-12 Isoalkyl Esters/VA/Bis-Vinyldimethicone Crosspolymer; (b) is chosen from vinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone and mixtures thereof; and (c) is octylacrylamide/acrylates/butylaminoethyl methacrylate copolymer. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein (a) is present in an amount of from about 0.05 to about 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. 3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein (b) is vinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer. 4. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising at least one auxiliary ingredient selected from the group consisting of propellants, rheology modifiers, emulsifiers, surfactants, fatty phase ingredients, preservatives and fragrances, and combinations of two or more thereof. 5. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a propellant. 6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is in the form of a spray. 7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition does not contain a propellant. 8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a composition for imparting shape to hair or maintaining shape of hair. 9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises water and a volatile organic solvent and wherein the volatile organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 6%, based on the total weight of the composition. 10. A composition for imparting shape to hair or maintaining shape of hair comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier: (a) from about 1% to about 3% by weight of Crotonic Acid/Vinyl C8-12 Isoalkyl Esters/VA/Bis-Vinyldimethicone Crosspolymer; (b) from about 0.5% to about 5% by weight of at least one nonionic film forming polymer; (c) from about 0.5% to about 3% by weight of at least one amphoteric film forming polymer; (d) at least one neutralizer; all weights being based on the total weight of the composition; wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises a combination of water and at least one organic solvent chosen from volatile organic solvents wherein the at least one organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 10% by weight; and wherein (b) is chosen from vinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone and mixtures thereof; and (c) is octylacrylamide/acrylates/butylaminoethyl methacrylate copolymer. 11. The composition of claim 10 , wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises water and a volatile organic solvent and wherein the volatile organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 6%, based on the total weight of the composition. 12. A method of imparting shape to hair or maintaining shape of hair, comprising applying to hair, a composition, containing, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier: (a) at least one silicone-organic polymer hybrid compound; (b) at least one nonionic film forming polymer present in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 5% by weight; (c) at least one amphoteric film forming polymer present in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 3% by weight; (d) at least one neutralizer; and wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises a combination of water and at least one organic solvent chosen from volatile organic solvents wherein the at least one organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 10% by weight; wherein all weights are based on the total weight of the composition; and wherein (a) is Crotonic Acid/Vinyl C8-12 Isoalkyl Esters/VA/Bis-Vinyldimethicone Crosspolymer; (b) is chosen from vinyl pyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone and mixtures thereof; and (c) is octylacrylamide/acrylates/butylaminoethyl methacrylate copolymer. 13. The method of claim 12 , further comprising applying heat to the hair after applying the composition onto the hair. 14. The method of claim 12 , further comprising applying a device chosen from a flat iron, a curling iron, a comb and a brush to the hair after applying the composition onto the hair. 15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier comprises water and a volatile organic solvent and wherein the volatile organic solvent is present in an amount of from about 0.01 to about 6%, based on the total weight of the composition.
