Abstract

A personal care composition including at least one dry emollient and one oily emollient, where the personal care composition is free of silicone or silicone containing materials.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A personal care composition comprising:
(a) a hydrophilic phase comprising water, the hydrophilic phase being present in an amount of from about 85% to about 90% by weight of the personal care composition;
(b) a lipophilic phase comprising a dry emollient and an oily emollient, the dry emollient being present in a greater amount by weight than the oily emollient, and the dry emollient and oily emollient being present in a ratio of from about 3:1 to about 1:1 by weight, wherein the dry emollient comprises a carbonate ester selected from the group consisting of dicaprylyl carbonate, cetyl carbonate, cetearyl carbonate, stearyl carbonate, C12-C15 alkyl carbonate and combinations thereof, and wherein the oily emollient comprises an ester selected from the group consisting of heptyl undecylenate, tridecyl neopentanoate, isostearyl palmitate, cetyl ricinoleate, cetyl octanoate, isononyl isononanoate, butyl stearate, octyldodecyl soyate, tridecyl erucate, octyldodecyl erucate/eicosil erucate, diisopropyl adipate, dioctyl sebacate, dioctyl succinate, dioctyl maleate, diisostearyl adipate, diethyl sebacate and combinations thereof;
wherein the personal care composition is free of silicone or silicone containing materials.

2. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein said dry emollient and oily emollient are present in a weight ratio of about 3:1.

3. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the personal care composition further comprises a humectant and an emulsifier.

4. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the personal care composition further comprises a preservative.

5. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the personal care composition further comprises a fragrance.

6. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the personal care composition further comprises a neutralizer.

7. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the personal care composition is a cleansing composition.

8. The personal care composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a substantially non-irritating cleansing composition.

9. A method of cleaning the skin of a user without irritating skin, comprising the step of:
(a) applying a personal care composition to the skin of a user, the composition comprising:
(i) a hydrophilic phase comprising water, the hydrophilic phase being present in an amount of from about 85% to about 90% by weight of the personal care composition;
(ii) a lipophilic phase comprising a dry emollient and an oily emollient, the dry emollient being present in a greater amount by weight than the oily emollient, and the dry emollient and oily emollient being present in a ratio of from about 3:1 to about 1:1 by weight, wherein the dry emollient comprises a carbonate ester selected from the group consisting of dicaprylyl carbonate, cetyl carbonate, cetearyl carbonate, stearyl carbonate, C12-C15 alkyl carbonate and combinations thereof, and wherein the oily emollient comprises an ester selected from the group consisting of heptyl undecylenate, tridecyl neopentanoate, isostearyl palmitate, cetyl ricinoleate, cetyl octanoate, isononyl isononanoate, butyl stearate, octyldodecyl soyate, tridecyl erucate, octyldodecyl erucate/eicosil erucate, diisopropyl adipate, dioctyl sebacate, dioctyl succinate, dioctyl maleate, diisostearyl adipate, diethyl sebacate and combinations thereof;
wherein the personal care composition is free of silicone or silicone containing materials; and

(b) one of rinsing the composition off the skin, leaving the composition to dry on the skin, or wiping the composition off the skin.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein said step of applying comprises applying by a wipe, sheet, sponge, or brush.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein said step of applying comprises applying by hand.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein said dry emollient and oily emollient are present in a weight ratio of about 3:1.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the composition further comprises a humectant and an emulsifier.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the composition further comprises a preservative.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the composition further comprises a fragrance.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the composition further comprises a neutralizer.
