Abstract:
Water-in-oil emulsions(a) with a content of water and optionally water-soluble substances totalling at least 80% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations, and with a content of lipids, emulsifiers and lipophilic constituents totalling at most 20% by weight, based in each case on the total weight of the preparations, (b) comprising at least one surface-active substance selected from the group consisting of alkylmethicone copolyols, alkyldimethicone copolyols, and combinations thereof (c) comprising one or more lipid components which include the lipid phase of the emulsion, (d) where the weight ratio of (b) to (c) is chosen from the range 0.05 to 0.30, (e) if the water content is between 75 and 80% by weight, comprising one or more cationic polymers (f) if the water content is more than 80% by weight, not comprising a cationic polymer.
