Description: LIQUID PERSONAL CLEANSING EMULSION COMPOSITIONS WHICH CONTAIN A WEIGHTING OIL TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to liquid personal cleansing compositions which provide efficacious moisturization to the skin. The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention contain a moisturizing phase comprising a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and a weighting oil, and an aqueous cleansing phase comprising a surfactant, a stabilizer, and water. The weighting oil increases the deposition of the moisturizing phase of the personal cleansing composition. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Liquid personal cleansing products are becoming more popular in the United States and around the world. Desirable liquid personal cleansing compositions must meet a number of criteria. For example, in order to be acceptable to consumers, a liquid personal cleansing product must exhibit good cleaning properties, must exhibit good lathering characteristics, must be mild to the skin (not cause drying or irritation) and preferably should even provide a moisturization benefit to the skin. Liquid personal cleansing products which contain high levels of lipophilic skin conditioning agents have been disclosed. In fact, consumer products, such as Olay Moisturizing Body Wash ®, which, especially when used with the Olay Cleansing Puff ®, deposit lipophilic skin conditioning agents on the skin are enormously popular with consumers. Nevertheless, some consumers would prefer to have an even greater moisturizing benefit delivered from these liquid personal cleansing products. Therefore, it would be desirable to provide a liquid personal cleansing composition with even greater moisturizing properties. It has now been found that the deposition of the moisturizing phase of the personal cleansing composition on the skin can be dramatically increased if the moisturizing phase contains a weighting oil. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to liquid personal cleansing compositions comprising from about 1% to about 30% of a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent, from about 1% to about 20% of a weighting oil, wherein the ratio of the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent to the weighting oil ranges from about 20:1 to about 1:10; from about 0.1% to about 10% of a stabilizer, from about 1% to about 30% of a lathering surfactant, and water. DETAILED DESCRD7TION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to liquid personal cleansing compositions which provide clinically efficacious moisturization to the skin. As used herein, "liquid personal cleansing compositions" refers to rinse-off personal cleansing products, including, but not limited to, shower washes, liquid handsoaps, facial cleansers, and shampoos. The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention contain a moisturizing phase, comprising a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and a weighting oil; and an aqueous cleansing phase comprising a surfactant, a stabilizer, and water. The compositions are preferably emulsion compositions. The moisturizing phase of the personal cleansing composition typically exists as droplets suspended in the aqueous cleansing phase. These droplets are deposited to the user's skin during application and use with water. In general, it has been found that moisturization of the skin is impacted by the amount of moisturizing agent deposited and the coverage of the skin by deposited agent. Coverage of the skin is optimized when the moisturizing agent is deposited on the skin as many, relatively small droplets. However, small droplet size droplets of moisturizing agent in typical cleansing emulsions do not deposit well. The low specific gravity of the moisturizing agent as compared to water results in the small droplets tending to be pushed away from the skin by the heavier water and surfactants, resulting in poor deposition. The solution to this problem to date, has been to either increase the droplet size of the droplets comprising the moisturizing phase, thus increasing the mass of the individual droplets and increasing the amount of moisturizer for every droplet which is deposited; or to simply increase the total amount of moisturizing agent in the compositions. It has been found that by using weighting oil in the moisturizing phase of the cleansing compositions, the specific gravity of the droplets is increased, thereby improving the deposition characteristics of the droplet. The addition of weighting oils allows for the adjustment of the specific gravity of the moisturizing phase to obtain optimum phase stability and deposition. This improved deposition characteristics of the droplet particle and the increased phase stability allows for the use of emulsions where the droplet size of the moisturizing phase can be reduced without sacrificing deposition. The liquid personal cleansing compositions which contain the weighting oil in the moisturizing phase will, therefore, provide improved efficacious moisturization to the skin. Liquid personal cleansing compositions which contain weighting oils in the moisturizing phase, including the materials contained therein and processes for preparing, are described in detail as follows: I. Ingredients A. Moisturizing Phase The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprise a moisturizing phase which comprises a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and a weighting oil. The moisturizing phase provides the vehicle for delivering the lipophilic skin moisturizing agents to the skin of the user. The average droplet size of the moisturizing phase droplets, comprised of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and weighting oil, ranges from about 0.005 microns to about 1000 microns, preferably from about 0.1 to about 500 microns, more preferably from about 10 to about 350 microns, and most preferably from about 50 to about 200 microns in diameter. See U.S. Patent Number Re. 34,584, Grote et al., Reissued April 12, 1994, U.S. Patent Number 5,246,694, issued to Birtwistle, on September 21, 1993, and U.S. Patent Number 5,650,84, issued to Gordon et al., on July 22, 1997, all herein incorporated by reference. For purposes of the present invention, the diameter of a droplet means the longest length of the droplet. 1. Lipophilic Skin Moisturizing Agent The moisturizing phase of the liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprise from about 1% to about 30%, preferably from about 3% to about 25%, more preferably from about 5% to about 20%, by weight of the composition, of a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent. The lipophilic skin moisturizing agents suitable for use herein typically have a viscosity which ranges from about 5 poise to about 5,000 poise, preferably from about 10 poise to about 3,000 poise, more preferably from about 50 poise to about 2,000 poise, as measured by the Viscosity Method for Lipophilic Skin Moisturizing Agents hereinafter set forth in the Analytical Methods section. While not being bound by any theory, it is believed that lipophilic skin moisturizing agents having rheology properties other than those defined herein are either too easily emulsified and hence will not deposit, or are too "stiff" to adhere or deposit on to skin and provide a moisturization benefit. In addition, the rheological properties of the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent are also important to user perception. Some lipophilic skin moisturizing agents, on deposition to the skin, are considered too sticky and are not preferred by the user. In some cases, the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent can also desirably be defined in terms of its solubility parameter, as defined by Vaughan in Cosmetics and Toiletries. Vol. 103, p. 47-69, October 1988. A lipophilic skin moisturizing agent having a Vaughan solubility Parameter (VSP) of from 5 to 10, preferably from 5.5 to 9 is suitable for use in the liquid personal cleansing compositions herein. A wide variety of lipid type materials and mixtures of materials are suitable for use as the lipophilic skin moisturizing agents in the personal cleansing compositions of the present invention. Preferably, the lipophilic skin conditioning agent is selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbon oils and waxes, silicones, fatty acid derivatives, cholesterol, cholesterol derivatives, di and tri-glycerides, vegetable oils, vegetable oil derivatives, liquid nondigestible oils such as those described in U.S. Patents 3,600,186 to Mattson; Issued August 17, 1971 and 4,005,195 and 4,005,196 to Jandacek et al; both issued January 25, 1977, all of which are herein incorporated by reference, or blends of liquid digestible or nondigestible oils with solid polyol polyesters such as those described in U.S. Patent 4,797,300 to Jandacek; issued January 10, 1989; U.S Patents 5,306,514, 5,306,516 and 5,306,515 to Letton; all issued April 26, 1994, all of which are herein incorporated by reference, and acetoglyceride esters, alkyl esters, alkenyl esters, lanolin and its derivatives, milk-tri-glycerides, wax esters, beeswax derivatives, sterols, phospholipids and mixtures thereof. Fatty acids, fatty acid soaps and water soluble polyols are specifically excluded from our definition of a lipophilic skin moisturizing agent. Hydrocarbon oils and waxes: Some examples are petrolatum, mineral oil micro- crystalline waxes, polyalkenes (e.g. hydrogenated and nonhydrogenated polybutene and polydecene), paraffins, cerasin, ozokerite, polyethylene and perhydrosqualene. Blends of petrolatum and hydrogenated and nonhydrogenated high molecular weight polybutenes wherein the ratio of petrolatum to polybutene ranges from about 90:10 to about 40:60 are also suitable for use as the lipid skin moisturizing agent in the compositions herein. Silicone Oils: Some examples are dimethicone copolyol, dimethylpolysiloxane, diethylpolysiloxane, high molecular weight dimethicone, mixed C1-C30 alkyl polysiloxane, phenyl dimethicone, dimethiconol, and mixtures thereof. More preferred are non-volatile silicones selected from dimethicone, dimethiconol, mixed C1-C30 alkyl polysiloxane, and mixtures thereof. Nonlimiting examples of silicones useful herein are described in U.S. Patent No. 5,011,681, to Ciotti et al., issued April 30, 1991, which is incorporated by reference. Di and tri-glycerides: Some examples are castor oil, soy bean oil, derivatized soybean oils such as maleated soy bean oil, safflower oil, cotton seed oil, corn oil, walnut oil, peanut oil, olive oil, cod liver oil, almond oil, avocado oil, palm oil and sesame oil, vegetable oils and vegetable oil derivatives; coconut oil and derivatized coconut oil, cottonseed oil and derivatized cottonseed oil, jojoba oil, cocoa butter, and the like. Acetoglyceride esters are used and an example is acetylated monoglycerides. Lanolin and its derivatives are preferred and some examples are lanolin, lanolin oil, lanolin wax, lanolin alcohols, lanolin fatty acids, isopropyl lanolate, acetylated lanolin, acetylated lanolin alcohols, lanolin alcohol linoleate, lanolin alcohol riconoleate. It is most preferred when at least 75% of the lipophilic skin conditioning agent is comprised of lipids selected from the group consisting: petrolatum, blends of petrolatum and high molecular weight polybutene, mineral oil, liquid nondigestible oils (e.g. liquid cottonseed sucrose octaesters) or blends of liquid digestible or nondigestible oils with solid polyol polyesters (e.g. sucrose octaesters prepared from C22 fatty acids) wherein the ratio of liquid digestible or nondigestible oil to solid polyol polyester ranges from about 96:4 to about 80:20, hydrogenated or nonhydrogenated polybutene, micro-crystalline wax, polyalkene, paraffin, cerasin, ozokerite, polyethylene, perhydrosqualene, dimethicones, alkyl siloxane, polymethylsiloxane, methylphenylpolysiloxane and mixtures thereof. When as blend of petrolatum and other lipids is used, the ratio of petrolatum to the other selected lipids (hydrogenated or unhydrogenated polybutene or polydecene or mineral oil) is preferably from about 10: 1 to about 1 :2, more preferably from about 5:1 to about 1:1. 2. Weighting Oil The moisturizing phase of the liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention further comprises from about 1% to about 20%, preferably from about 3% to about 15%, and more preferably from about 5% to about 10%, by weight of the composition, of a weighting oil. The ratio of the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent to the weighting oil is critical to achieving the benefits of the present invention and must range from about 20:1 to about 1:10, preferably from about 10:1 to about 1:5, and more preferably from about 5:1 to about 1 :1. A ratio above 20:1 does not deliver enough weighting oil to increase the specific gravity of the moisturizing phase droplet sufficiently to improve the emulsion stability. A ratio below 1:10 will alter the skin feel characteristics as an insufficient level of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent is present, and the tactile characteristics of the weighting oil dominate the skin feel properties. The weighting oils suitable herein typically have a specific gravity of from about 0.9 to about 2.0, preferably from about 1.1 to about 1.7, and more preferably from about 1.2 to about 1.5. Specific examples of suitable weighting oils are disclosed in U.S. Patent Number 3,028,403, issued to Fritz et al., on April 3, 1962, U.S. Patent Number 3,240,794, issued to Bornfleth, on March 15, 1966, U.S. Patent Number 4,705,690, issued to Brand et al., on November 10, 1987, and U.S. Patent Number 4,705,691, issued to Kupper, on November 10, 1987, all incorporated by reference herein.

Most preferred is brominated vegetable oil. B. Aqueous Cleansing Phase The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention also comprise an aqueous cleansing phase which comprises a stabilizer, a lathering surfactant, and water. Each of these is described in detail as follows: 1. Stabilizer The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention typically contain from about 0.1% to about 10%, preferably from about 0.25% to about 8%, more preferably from about 0.5% to about 5% of a stabilizer in the aqueous phase. The stabilizer is used to form a crystalline stabilizing network in the composition that prevents the lipophilic skin moisturizer agent droplets from coalescing and phase splitting in the product. The network exhibits time dependent recovery of viscosity after shearing (e.g., thixotropy). The stabilizers used herein are not surfactants. The stabilizers provide improved shelf and stress stability, but allow the oil-in-water emulsion to separate upon lathering, and thereby provide for increased lipid deposition onto the skin. This is particularly true when the oil-in-water cleansing emulsions of the present invention are used in conjunction with a polymeric diamond meshed sponge implement such as that described in Campagnoli; U.S. Patent 5,144,744; Issued September 8, 1992, herein incorporated by reference. In one embodiment of the present invention, the stabilizer employed in the personal cleansing compositions herein comprises a crystalline, hydroxyl-containing stabilizer. This stabilizer can be a hydroxyl-containing fatty acid, fatty ester or fatty soap water-insoluble wax-like substance or the like. The crystalline, hydroxy-containing stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of: (i) CH 2 - OR! I CH - OR 2 I CH 2 - OR 3 wherein O Rl is -C-R4(CHOHkR5(CHOHyR6; R2 is R ] or H R 3 is R! or H R4 is c 0-20 A1 R 5 is c o-20 Alk y J . R6 is c 0-20 A1 R4 + R 5 + R 6 = C 10 .22 and wherein 1< x+y <4; (M) O R7-C-OM wherein R 7 is -R 4 (CHOH) x R 5 (CHOH) y R 6 M is Na + , K + or Mg ""1" , or H; and iii) mixtures thereof; Some preferred hydroxyl-containing stabilizers include 12-hydroxystearic acid, 9,10- dihydroxystearic acid, tri-9,10-dihydroxystearin and tri-12-hydroxystearin (hydrogenated castor oil is mostly tri-12-hydroxystearin). Tri-12-hydroxystearin is most preferred for use in the emulsion compositions herein. When these crystalline, hydroxyl-containing stabilizers are utilized in the personal cleansing compositions herein, they are typically present at from about 0.5% to 10%, preferably from 0.75% to 8%, more preferably from 1.25% to about 5% of the liquid personal cleansing compositions. The stabilizer is insoluble in water under ambient to near ambient conditions. Alternatively, the stabilizer employed in the personal cleansing compositions herein can comprise a polymeric thickener. When polymeric thickeners as the stabilizer in the personal cleansing compositions herein, they are typically included in an amount ranging from about 0.01% to about 5%, preferably from about 0.3% to about 3%, by weight of the composition.

Preferably, the polymer is selected from the group consisting of Sodium Polyacrylate, Hydroxy Ethyl Cellulose, Cetyl Hydroxy Ethyl Cellulose, and Polyquaternuium 10. Another stabilizer which can be employed in the personal cleansing compositions herein are C10-C22 ethylene glycol fatty acid ester. C10-C22 ethylene glycol fatty acid esters can also desirably be employed in combination with the polymeric thickeners hereinbefore described. The ester is preferably a diester, more preferably a C14-C18 diester, most preferably ethylene glycol distearate. When C10-C22 ethylene glycol fatty acid esters are utilized as the stabilizer in the personal cleansing compositions herein, they are typically present at from about 3% to about 10%, preferably from about 5% to about 8%, more preferably from about 6% to about 8% of the personal cleansing compositions. Another class of stabilizer which can be employed in the personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprises dispersed amorphous silica selected from the group consisting of fumed silica and precipitated silica and mixtures thereof. As used herein the term "dispersed amorphous silica" refers to small, finely divided non-crystalline silica having a mean agglomerate particle size of less than about 100 microns. Fumed silica, which is also known as arced silica, is produced by the vapor phase hydrolysis of silicon tetrachloride in a hydrogen oxygen flame. It is believed that the combustion process creates silicone dioxide molecules which condense to form particles. The particles collide, attach and sinter together. The result of this process is a three dimensional branched chain aggregate. Once the aggregate cools below the fusion point of silica, which is about 1710°C, further collisions result in mechanical entanglement of the chains to form agglomerates. Precipitated silicas and silica gels are generally made in aqueous solution. See, Cabot Technical Data Pamphlet TD-100 entitled "CAB-O-SIL® Untreated Fumed Silica Properties and Functions", October 1993, and Cabot Technical Data Pamphlet TD-104 entitled "CAB-O-SIL® Fumed Silica in Cosmetic and Personal Care Products", March 1992, both of which are herein incorporated by reference. The fumed silica preferably has a mean agglomerate particle size ranging from about 0.1 microns to about 100 microns, preferably from about 1 micron to about 50 microns, and more preferably from about 10 microns to about 30 microns.

The silica preferably has a surface area greater than 50 sq. m/gram, more preferably greater than about 130 sq. m./gram, most preferably greater than about 180 sq. m./gram. When amorphous silicas are used as the stabilizer herein, they are typically included in the emulsion compositions at levels ranging from about 0.1% to about 10%, preferably from about 0.25% to about 8%, more preferably from about 0.5% to about 5%. A fourth class of stabilizer which can be employed in the personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprises dispersed smectite clay selected from the group consisting of bentonite and hectorite and mixtures thereof. Bentonite is a colloidal aluminum clay sulfate. See Merck Index, Eleventh Edition, 1989, entry 1062, p. 164, which is incorporated by reference.

Nos. 5,248,495 dated Sep. 28, 1993; 2,772,820 dated Dec. 4, 1956; 2,777,735 dated Jan. 15, 1957; 3,191,816 dated June 29, 1965; 3,348,743 dated Oct. 24, 1967; 3,540,624 dated Nov. 17, 1970. The moisturizing product of the present invention comprises a sealed container, such as an essentially cylindrical bottle, having a dispensing means such as a nozzle. The container contains the composition and propellant gas. Suitable containers may be made from any material, especially aluminum, tin-plate, plastics including PET, OPP, PE or polyamide and including mixtures, laminates or other combinations of these. Foam is dispensed when the nozzle is activated and the cleansing composition is released together with the propellant gas. The propellant gas expands to form many "bubbles" within the composition thereby creating the foam. II. Process for Preparing the Moisturizing Liquid Personal Cleansing Emulsion Compositions Herein The personal cleansing compositions of the present invention can be prepared using standard procedures using standard materials known in the respective arts. The critical additional step is that the weighting oil must be premixed with the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and any additional ingredients comprising the moisturizing phase of the composition. Premixing must be done before the addition of the moisturizing phase to the aqueous cleansing phase of the compositions. The weighting oils can be added to any liquid type cleansing composition which contains a moisturizing phase, such as leave-on and rinse-off hair conditioners, hair shampoos, leave-on and rinse-off facial acne preparations, facial milks and conditioners, shower gels, foaming and non-foaming facial cleansers, and hand and body lotions.

III. Characteristics of the Liquid Personal Cleansing Compositions Herein In order to achieve the deposition benefits hereinbefore described and to be consumer-acceptable, it is important that the liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention have particular rheological characteristics. In particular, the liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention have a viscosity ranging from about 300 centipoise to about 100,000 centipoise, preferably from about 1,000 centipoise to about 70,000 centipoise, more preferably from about 1,000 centipoise to about 40,000 centipoise, as measured by the Viscosity of the Liquid Personal Cleansing Composition, hereinafter set forth in the Analytical Methods Section. The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention provide clinically efficacious moisturization benefits to the skin The liquid personal cleansing compositions of the present invention have a Deposition Value of greater than or equal to about 10 micrograms/square centimeter, preferably greater than or equal to about 25 micrograms/square centimeter, more preferably greater than or equal to about 35 micrograms/square centimeter, and most preferably greater than or equal to about 50 micrograms/square centimeter of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent on the skin as measured by the Deposition of the Lipophilic skin Moisturizing Agent Method set forth hereinafter in the Analytical Methods section. Analytical Methods A number of parameters used to characterize elements of the present invention are quantified by particular experimental analytical procedures. Each of these procedures are described in detail as follows: 1. Viscosity Method for Lipophilic Skin Moisturizing Agents The Wells-Brookfield Cone/Plate Model DV-II+ Viscometer is used to determine the viscosity of the moisturizing personal cleansing compositions herein. The determination is performed at 25°C with the 3.0 cm° cone (Spindle CP-52) measuring system with a gap of 0.013 mm between the two small pins on the respective cone and plate. The measurement is performed by injecting 0.5 ml of the sample to be analyzed between the cone and plate and rotating the cone at a set speed of 2 rpm. The resistance to the rotation of the cone produces a torque that is proportional to the shear stress of the liquid sample. The amount 15 of torque is read and computed by the viscometer into absolute poise units based on geometric constants of the cone, the rate of rotation, and the stress related torque. 2. Viscosity of the Moisturizing Personal Cleansing Composition The Wells-Brookfield Cone/Plate Model DV-II+ Viscometer is used to determine the viscosity of the moisturizing personal cleansing compositions herein. The determination is performed at 25°C with the 2.4 cm° cone (Spindle CP-41) measuring system with a gap of 0.013 mm between the two small pins on the respective cone and plate. The measurement is performed by injecting 0.5 ml of the sample to be analyzed between the cone and plate and rotating the cone at a set speed of 1 rpm. The resistance to the rotation of the cone produces a torque that is proportional to the shear stress of the liquid sample. The amount of torque is read and computed by the viscometer into absolute centipoise units (mPa-s) based on geometric constants of the cone, the rate of rotation, and the stress related torque. 3. Deposition of the Lipophilic Skin Moisturizing Agent A. Preparation The arms are washed with a nonsoap-containing, nonlipid-containing product to reduce background interference as much as possible, then blotted dry. The subject then wets the entire surface of the inner forearm with 95-1 OOF tap water for five seconds. One milliliter of the liquid personal cleansing composition which contains the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent and weighting oil is applied to the forearm of the subject. The test proctor, wearing a latex glove, gently rubs the product on the skin for 10 seconds to generate lather. The lather is allowed to remain on the forearm for fifteen seconds, followed by a thorough rinse for fifteen seconds with the water flowing from inner elbow to wrist. The subject arm is then patted dry with a paper towel. The subject then allows the arm to "air" dry for 30 seconds. B. Deposition Protocol- Sebumeter Deposition of the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent on the skin is measured using a Sebumeter SM810 which is commercially available from Courage and Khazaka GmbH. The Sebumeter measures the amount of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent that has been deposited on the skin via photometry of a special plastic strip, which becomes transparent when it absorbs the lipophilic skin moisturizing agent. The plastic strip is extended over a mirror which is connected to a spring. The measuring head of the device (comprised of spring, mirror and plastic strip) is pressed against the skin for 30 seconds. The Deposition Value (μg/sq. cm) is indicative of the amount of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent on the skin; the Deposition Value increases with increased amount of lipophilic skin moisturizing agent. The method is insensitive to humidity. Sebumeter readings (3) are taken along the length of the forearm and the Deposition Value (μg/sq. cm) is defined as the mean of the 3 16 readings, divided by a conversion factor to translate the sebumeter readings to actual deposition levels in μg/sq. cm. The Sebumeter has the following limitations: 1. The Sebumeter tape also detects natural skin lipids. A criterion of this test is that subject's baseline value measured on the Sebumeter, prior to washing, be less than or equal to 3 μg/sq. cm of forearm skin. 2. The Sebumeter like other surface extraction measurements may not measure all the deposited lipophilic skin moisturizing agent; if the skin topography is undulating it is possible that deposited lipophilic skin moisturizing agent may not be extracted by the Sebumeter tape. 3. The Sebumeter tape becomes saturated at a Deposition Value of above about 300 μg/sq. cm; so this method can only measure deposition values up to about 300 μg/sq. cm. 4. Different lipophilic skin moisturizing agents will have different conversion factors. For testing non-petrolatum lipids, a new calibration curve is required. C. Calibration To translate the Sebumeter data obtained as hereinbefore described into deposition data, it is necessary to generate a conversion factor. To generate the conversion factor, an extraction is done for each lipid system and the extracted sample is analyzed by gas chromatography. The extraction is done at the same time as the Sebumeter reading and is taken from the same forearm, the extraction procedure is as follows: 1) An open-ended glass cylinder (2 inches in diameter) is placed onto the subject's inner forearm and securely strapped in place. 2) Five ml of extraction solvent is added to the cylinder. 3) The liquid is stirred on the subject's arm for 30 seconds using a blunt-ended glass stirring rod. The full surface area of the enclosed forearm is treated with solvent. 4) The liquid is transferred to a 6 dram vial using a disposable transfer pipet. 5) Steps 2-5 are repeated two times (total of three samples, 15 ml of solvent collected) The extracted sample is then analyzed by gas chromatography as follows: APPARATUS Gas Chromatograph HP 5890 or equivalent equipped with capillary inlet system and flame ionization detector. Integration System PEN Turbochrom v4.0 data system, or HP 3396 Series II integrator, or equivalent with peak-grouping capability.

Bunching Factor 2 SOLUTIONS Internal Standard Solution Into a clean, dry 100 ml volumetric flask, analytically weight 0.1 g of squalane, recording weight to nearest 0.0002 g. Dilute to volume with heptane, stopper and stir to dissolve. (A 1: 1000 dilution of this solution can be used as the extraction solvent when generating samples.) Lipid Stock Solution Into a clean, dry 100 ml volumetric flask, analytically weight 0.5 gram of lipid standard, recording weight to nearest 0.0002 g. Dilute to volume with heptane, stopper and stir to mix. Lipid Working Standards Label three autosampler vials as follows: "100 μg," "300 μg" and "500 μg." Using the glass syringe, transfer 15 μl of internal standard solution into each vial. Rinse syringe well with heptane, then use it to transfer the following amounts of lipid stock solution to the vials: Std. Vol. Stock Soln. (u.1) 100 μg 20 300 μg 60 500 μg 100 18 Dilute to approx. 0.5 ml with heptane, then cap and shake to mix. OPERATION 1. Calibration Run each standard under the above conditions. Select the 10-14 largest peaks from the calibration run and create a peak group within the calibration of the method. Assign the amount of lipid in the standard to the group for each calibration level. Plot the area ratio on the y-axis. Do not force the line through the origin or include the origin. The r2 value should be at least 0.9990. Check calibration every ten or twelve samples and at the end of the sample run. 2. Sample Analysis Evaporate samples to dryness under a stream of dry nitrogen. Reconstitute in 0.5 ml heptane. Cap tightly and place on dry bath for 5 minutes; shake to dissolve completely. Transfer to autosampler vials and analyze on calibrated instrument with the proper ISTD amount entered. Important: Because the baseline is cluttered, manually check each result file for correct peak identification. The GC data is then plotted on a curve versus the Sebumeter data. The slope of the curve is the conversion factor. The conversion factor for petrolatum is 0.56. 4. Droplet Size Measurement for Moisturizing Phase Droplets Light microscopy is used as the supplemental droplet size measurement technique to measure the size of the moisturizing phase droplets. In this technique, the product is viewed under very low magnification (<10X) between a plate and coverslip and moisturizing phase droplet sizes are estimated via a micrometer. The droplet size of the total population is determined, and a weighted average is calculated.

Preparation In order to prepare the liquid personal compositions of Examples A-J, two premixes are prepared in addition to the main mix: a moisturizing phase premix and a polymer premix. The critical step in this process is ensuring that the moisturizing phase premix is added to the main mix without excessive agitation. 21 First add the AE3S and ALS to the main mix tank. Then add the citric acid. Add the remainder of the surfactants. Add the Trihydroxystearin, lauryl alcohol, and all required water, less 10% for the polymer premix. Heat the surfactant mixture to 160°F. Prepare a polymer premix, by mixing 10%, by weight of the total composition batch weight, of water and the JR 30M polymer. Mix well. When main mix tank ingredients reach 160°F, add polymer premix. Heat main mix to 190°F. Start the moisturizing phase premix when the polymer premix addition is completed. Add all of the oil components, including the weighting oil, to premix tank. Heat the premix until the temperature reaches 130°F to 140°F. When all of the oil components are thoroughly mixed, discontinue heating. Cool the main mix. When the main mix has reached a target temperature of 140°F, slowly add the moisturizing phase premix. Slowly mix batch until the oil phase is thoroughly mixed with the main mix. Add the remaining minor ingredients, slowly cool the batch until it reaches a temperature of 80°F-100°F.
