Patent Summary
Microemulsion-based cosmetic formulation that enhances hair conditioning properties without surfactant thickening. The formulation comprises a microemulsion of cosmetic oil, non-ionic surfactant, and non-aqueous solvent, with water, that forms stable, phase-separated structures at room temperature. The microemulsion contains quaternary ammonium compounds, fatty alcohols, and polyols that combine to create a stable, non-foaming microemulsion. This formulation provides enhanced conditioning benefits through its unique microemulsion structure, which allows the cosmetic oil to penetrate hair shafts while maintaining a stable, non-foaming texture.
