Aerosol package containing a homogeneous single phase liquid skin-conditioner

Claim 1

A package consisting of a pressurized container having a valve controlled foam dispensing head charged with a self-propelling, clear, transparent, homogeneous, liquid skin conditioner composition capable of retaining said clear, transparent, homogeneous and liquid properties at temperatures between about 30*F and about 105*F and forming upon discharge from the container a foam of light consistency which does not become liquified for about 1 to 2 minutes when left undisturbed and which breaks down to a liquid when rubbed; the skin conditioner composition consisting of about 85 to about 95 weight per cent of an aqueous composition and about 15 to about 5 weight per cent of a propellant; said aqueous composition consisting essentially of from about 7 to about 15 weight per cent of a non-soap surface active agent selEcted from the group consisting of the sodium salt of a sulfated fatty alcohol having eight to 18 carbon atoms, the potassium salt of a sulfated fatty alcohol having eight to 18 carbon atoms, the alkali metal salt of an alkyl ester of sulfated succinic acid having eight to 18 carbons atoms in the alkyl group, the sodium salt of a sulfated fatty acid amide having eight to 18 carbon atoms, the potassium salt of a sulfated fatty acid amide having eight to 18 carbon atoms, an alkyldimethylamine oxide having eight to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, a fatty acid mono-ethanolamide having eight to 18 carbon atoms in the fatty acid group, a fatty acid di-ethanolamide having eight to 18 carbon atoms in the fatty acid group, ethylene oxide condensate of castor oil having a saponification value of 64, a condensate of lanolin with 50 to 70 moles of ethylene oxide, an acetylated condensate of lanolin with 50 to 70 moles of ethylene oxide, a condensate of a fatty aCid having eight to 18 carbon atoms with 3 moles of ethylene oxide, a condensate of a fatty alcohol having eight to 18 carbon atoms with 3 moles of ethylene oxide, a quaternary ammonium compound of a mono-alkylamine having from eight to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, a quaternary ammonium compound of a di-alkylamine having from eight to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, an alkali metal salt of N-lauryl beta-iminodipropionic acid, an alkali metal salt of N-lauryl myristyl beta-aminopropionic acid and mixtures of said surface active agents; from about 15 to about 20 weight per cent of a lower alkanol having from one to three carton atoms; and the balance water; and the propellant being a liquified halogenated alkane propellant or mixtures of liquified halogenated alkane propellants, the propellant having a vapor pressure from about 5 to about 300 pounds per square inch gauge at about 70 F and being soluble in the aqueous composition.
