Abstract:
A bar composition comprising:(a) 10% to 50% by wt. synthetic non-soap surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic, nonionic, cationic, amphoteric/zwitterionic surfactants and mixtures thereof;(b) 10% to 40% by wt. of a hydrophilic structurant having a melting range 40.degree. to 100.degree. C.;(c) 5% to 20% by wt. of a water insoluble structurant with MP 40.degree. to 200.degree. C.;(d) 2% to 40% benefit agent;(e) 1.0% to 10% by wt. cationic polymer which is an alkali metal salt of a dialkyl diallyl ammonium;wherein the amount of insoluble structurant (c) and soap; if any, exceeds amount of hydrophilic structurant (b) by no more than 10% by wt. of total bar composition; andwherein the amount of cationic polymer (e) is such that ratio of cationic polymer to surfactant is 0.06:1 to 1:1; andwherein charge density of cationic polymer is greater than 0.007.
