Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
A skin conditioning composition characterized by : - (a) from 0,1% to 16% of an ester having the structure wherein R 1 and R 2 are both straight chain alkyls having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms and the total number of carbon atoms in the ester is at least 24; (b) an emollient selected from the group consisting of fatty alcohols, squalane, liquid or solid paraffins, mixtures of fatty acids and squalane, mixtures of fatty acids and liquid or solid paraffins and mixtures thereof in an amount such that the amount of ester plus emollient is from 0.2% to 25%; (c) from 0.05% to 8% of an emulsifier selected from the group consisting of polyethoxylated fatty acids having less than about 30 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of fatty acid, unethoxylated sugar esters, polyoxyethylene fatty ether phosphates, fatty acid amides, phospholipids, polypropoxylated fatty ethers, acyl lactylate salts and mixtures thereof; and (d) water.
