Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    This invention, in general relates to a herbal cleansing composition. In more particularly, the present invention provides a herbal cleansing composition comprising herbs along with dehydroxanthan gum and alkylpolyglucoside and cosmeceutically acceptable excipients. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    Sodium laureth sulfate, or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES), is a cleansing agent and surfactant found in many personal care products. It is an inexpensive and very effective foaming agent. 
         [0003]    The Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association (CTFA) and the American Cancer Society have stated that the common belief that SLES is a carcinogen is an urban legend, a view confirmed by toxicology research by the OSHA, NTP, and IARC. SLES and SLS, and subsequently the products containing them, have been found to contain parts-per-thousand to parts-per-million levels of 1,4-dioxane, with the recommendation that these levels be monitored. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency considers 1,4-dioxane to be a probable human carcinogen, meaning that a daily consumption of one gram of 1,4-dioxane over a lifetime would increase the cancer risk by about one part in 3000. 
         [0004]    Concern over the health risks, along with the probability that the ethoxylated surfactants in use contain a fair amount of residual 1,4-dioxane, has led many cosmetic and toiletry companies to examine the levels of dioxane in both their raw materials and their finished products. 
         [0005]    In recent years, consumers are highly concerned with environmental safety, societal, and personal well-being impacts of products they buy as the environmental issues are increasing worldwide like global warming, decreasing rain forests, air pollution etc. 
         [0006]    Alkyl Polyglucoside, which is a 100% natural, renewable, plant-derived surfactant, is a very strong tool to support “Greening” trend in Personal and Home Care Products. Because it is prepared from glucose and vegetable fatty alcohol and it shows higher performance as a main or co surfactant with excellent ecological property. 
         [0007]    Alkyl Polyglucoside is very mild to human skin, and shows very good environmental compatibility and higher performance on every application in Personal and Home Care Products, Alkyl Polyglucoside can be regarded as the ideal “green” surfactants which add value to the formulated products and help to distinguish these products from conventional ones. 
         [0008]    It is therefore an important aspect to develop a herbal cleansing formulation that is made of natural ingredients to provide better cleansing effect and is safe to use.

         [0041]    Method of Manufacturing: 
         [0000]    1. Charge DM Water in a side SS vessel and heat the entire contents to 95° C., boil it for 30 minutes, start chiller, bring down temperature to 25° C., and dispense the total amount of boiled &amp; cooled DM Water (67.150%) required for the batch into a separate SS vessel and keep it covered. Keep DM Water (2.00%) for rinsing separately in covered SS vessel.
 
2. Take boiled &amp; cooled DM Water 3.00%) in a side vessel, add Citric Acid into it, and mix well to form ‘Phase B’.
 
3. Charge ‘Phase A’ ingredients in a side SS vessel and mix for 5 minutes with continuous stirring at 20 rpm. Stop mixing and heat the entire contents to 60° C.
 
4. Add pre-mixed ‘Phase B’ to the main vessel in part-by-part quantity. Continue mixing at 10 rpm for 5 minutes after addition of each part of Citric Acid Solution. Preferably, add it in four parts. Finally mix it for 5 minutes at 10 rpm. Stop mixing and maintain temperature at 60° C. for 30-40 mts till foam disappears completely. This is ‘Phase AB’.
 
5. Charge the freshly boiled and cooled ‘Phase D’ DM Water into the main vessel and continue mixing at 20 rpm.
 
6. Take ‘Phase C’ Glycerin in a side SS vessel and disperse ‘Amaze-XT’ into it by using Karl Homogenizer to form smooth slurry. Scrap occasionally to remove any lumps.
 
7. Add the pre-mixed slurry of Glycerin and Amaze-XT into the vortex of the water in the main vessel to form ‘Phase CD’. Mix it at a very high speed of 80 rpm for 5 minutes, scrap the sides of the vessel and anchor blades, and again mix at 80 rpm for 10 minutes.
 
8. Transfer the ‘Phase E’ active in a side SS vessel, add DM Water (4.000%) into it, mix well and add to main vessel containing Amaze-XT gel, by passing it through nylon muslin filter to form ‘Phase CDE’. Continue mixing at 60 rpm for 20 minutes to form a uniform gel till there are no lumps found in the solution. Scrap the sides of the vessel and anchor blades, and again mix at 30 rpm for 10 minutes.
 
9. Start Vacuum at 450-550 mm of Hg with mixing at 30 rpm for 60 minutes till no lumps remain and air bubbles subside to minimum.
 
10. Under vacuum, charge the ‘Phase AB’ into the main vessel containing ‘Phase CDE’, from bottom and mix with continuous stirring at 10 rpm till the complete transfer take place, to form ‘Phase ABCDE’.
 
11. Take out 5 Kg of bulk from below from the main vessel in a side SS vessel, add the Phase F′ Benzyl Alcohol into it, mix well with SS Spatula and transfer the entire contents into the main vessel to form ‘Phase ABCDEF’ and mix for 10 minutes at 20 rpm.
 
12. Add ‘Phase G’ Unicat MM to the main vessel and mix at 20 rpm for 10 mts to form ‘Phase ABCDEFG’.
 
13. Apply Vacuum at 450-550 mm of Hg with mixing at 10 rpm for 60 minutes till air bubbles subside to minimum.
 
14. Charge ‘Phase H’ ingredients in a side SS vessel and mix for 10 minutes with continuous stirring at 20 rpm till it becomes clear.
 
15. Under vacuum, transfer the pre-mixed ‘Phase H’ to the main vessel from bottom and mix with continuous stirring at 10 rpm till the complete transfer take place to form ‘Phase ABCDEFGH’,
 
16. Release vacuum and mix the entire contents for 20 minutes at 20 rpm.
 
17. Check the pH of the product, which should be in the range of pH=6.0-7.0.

     Method of Manufacturing 
       [0043]    1, Charge DM Water in a side SS vessel and heat the entire contents to 95° C., boil it for 30 minutes, start chiller, bring down temperature to 25° C., and dispense the total amount of boiled &amp; cooled DM Water (47.929%) required for the batch into a separate SS vessel and keep it covered. Keep DM Water (2.00%) for rinsing separately in covered SS vessel.
 
2. Take boiled &amp; cooled DM Water (MO %) in a side vessel, add Citric Acid into it, and mix well to form ‘Phase B’.
 
3. Charge ‘Phase A’ ingredients in a side SS vessel. Add pre-mixed ‘Phase B’, mix for 5 minutes with continuous stirring at 20 rpm. Stop mixing and heat the entire contents to 70° C., start chiller, bring down temperature to 60° C., maintain at same temperature for 1-2 hrs, till foam disappears completely. Again start chiller and bring down temperature to 35° C. This is ‘Phase AB’.
 
4. Charge the freshly boiled and cooled ‘Phase D’ DM Water into the main vessel and continue mixing at 20 rpm.
 
5, Take ‘Phase C’ Glycerin′ in a side SS vessel and disperse ‘Amaze-XT’ into it by using Karl Homogenizer to form smooth slurry. Soap occasionally to remove any lumps.
 
6. Add the pre-mixed slurry of Glycerin and Amaze-XT into the vortex of the water in the main vessel to form ‘Phase CD’. Mix it at very high speed of 80 rpm for 5 minutes, scrap the sides of the vessel and anchor blades, and again mix at 80 rpm for 10 minutes.
 
7. Charge the ‘Phase E’ Potassium Sorbate and boiled &amp; cooled DM water (1.00%) into the side vessel and mix to form a uniform solution.
 
8. Transfer ‘Phase E’ into main vessel containing Amaze-XT gel to form ‘Phase CDE’, and continue mixing at 60 rpm for 20 minutes to form a uniform gel till there is no lumps found in the solution. Scrap the sides of the vessel and anchor blades, and again mix at 30 rpm for 10 minutes.
 
9. Start Vacuum at 450-550 mm of Hg with mixing at 30 rpm for 60 minutes till no lumps remain and air bubbles subside to minimum.
 
10. Under vacuum charge the ‘Phase AB’ into the main vessel containing ‘Phase CDE’, from bottom and mix with continuous stirring at 10 rpm till the complete transfer take place, to form ‘Phase ABCDE’.
 
11. Charge the ‘Phase F’ Active, in a stainless steel container and mix with Plantacare 818 UP to form slurry.
 
12. Release vacuum and transfer the pre-mixed ‘Phase F’ to the main vessel by passing it through nylon muslin filter with continuous stirring at 20 rpm for 10 minutes to form ‘Phase ABCDEF’.
 
13. Give Vacuum at 550 mm of Hg for 60 minutes with continuous mixing at 20 rpm, till all the air bubbles are removed.
 
14. Charge the ‘Phase G’ ingredients into the side SS vessel and mix for 5 minutes to form a uniform blend of Perfume &amp; Natural Vitamin E.
 
15. Release vacuum and transfer the pre-mixed ‘Phase G’ into the main vessel to form ‘Phase ABCDEFG’ and mix for 20 minutes.
 
16. Charge the ‘Phase H’ ingredient, Biovert Substrate Solution to the main vessel and mix with continuous stirring for 5 minutes.
 
17. Take out 5 Kg of bulk from below from the main vessel in a side SS vessel, add the ‘Phase H’ ingredient, Biovert Enzyme Solution into it, mix well with SS Spatula and transfer the entire contents into the main vessel to form ‘Phase ABCDEFGH’ and mix for 20 minutes.
 
18. Check the pH of the product, which should be in the range of pH=4.5-5.4.
 
19. Submit the sample to QA Dept, for analysis.
 
20. Fill the product after QA Dept.&#39;s approval.
