Abstract

A personal cleansing composition includes a cleansing phase and a benefit phase, the benefit phase having a hydrophobic benefit agent and one or more oligomers derived from metathesis of unsaturated polyol esters and methods relating thereto.

Claims

1. A method of enhancing deposition of a hydrophobic benefit agent on skin, comprising:

providing a rinse-off personal cleansing composition comprising a cleansing phase comprising a surfactant and water and a benefit phase comprising a benefit agent and from about 1% to about 15% of an oligomer derived from metathesis of unsaturated polyol esters, and

instructing an individual to apply the composition to the skin.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the deposition improves 100% or more versus the personal care composition without the oligomer where deposition is measured in accordance with the In-vitro Deposition Evaluation model.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the deposition improves from about 100% to about 10,000% versus the benefit agent alone where deposition is measured in accordance with the In-vitro Deposition Evaluation model.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the oligomer comprises a soy oligomer.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the oligomer is fully hydrogenated.

6. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the oligomer is about 80% hydrogenated or more.

7. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the benefit phase comprises from about 1% to about 13%, by weight of the benefit phase, of the oligomer.

8. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the benefit phase comprises from about 2% to about 12%, by weight of the benefit phase, of the oligomer.

9. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the benefit phase comprises from about 2% to about 10%, by weight of the benefit phase, of the oligomer.

10. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the cleansing phase is structured.

11. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the hydrophobic benefit agent comprises unsaturated soybean oil.

12. The personal cleansing composition of claim 1, wherein the hydrophobic benefit agent exhibits a Vaughan solubility parameter from about 5 to about 14 and exhibits a viscosity of about 1500 cP or less at from about 20°

C. to about 25°

C.

20. The method of claim 1, wherein the Corneometer improvement is from about 0.2 Corneometer units to about 1.0 Corneometer units as compared to the personal cleansing composition without the oligomer after treatment of at least once a day for at least 3 days when measured in accordance with the Corneometer Testing Method;

a dry skin grade improvement of about 0.4 units to about 2.0 units at 3 hours after a treatment versus the personal cleansing composition without the oligomer when measured in accordance with the Dry Skin Grade Method;

a TEWL improvement of about 0.6 grams of water per hour per m² to about 5.0 grams of water per hour per m² after treatment at least once a day for 14 days when measured in accordance with the TEWL Method, or a combination thereof.

13. A method of enhancing the hydration of skin, comprising:

providing a rinse-off personal cleansing composition comprising a cleansing phase comprising a surfactant and water and a benefit phase comprising a benefit agent and from about 1% to about 15% of an oligomer derived from metathesis of unsaturated polyol esters, and

instructing an individual to apply the composition to the skin,

wherein the level of hydration is in accordance with at least one of the following;

a Corneometer improvement of 0.1 Corneometer units or more as compared to the personal cleansing composition without the oligomer after treatment of at least once a day for at least 3 days when measured in accordance with the Corneometer Testing Method;

a dry skin grade improvement of about 0.4 units or more at 3 hours after a treatment versus the personal cleansing composition without the oligomer when measured in accordance with the Dry Skin Grade Method;

a TEWL improvement of about 0.5 grams of water per hour per m² or more after treatment at least once a day for 14 days when measured in accordance with the TEWL Method, or a combination thereof.

14. The method of claim 13, wherein the oligomer comprise a soy oligomer.

15. The method of claim 13, wherein the oligomer is fully hydrogenated.

16. The method of claim 13, wherein the oligomer is about 80% hydrogenated or more.

17. The method of claim 13, wherein the cleansing phase and the benefit phase are blended.

18. The method of claim 13, wherein the benefit phase comprises from about 2% to about 12%, by weight of the benefit phase, of the oligomer.

19. The rinse-off multi-phase personal cleansing composition of claim 13, wherein the benefit phase comprises from about 2% to about 10%, by weight of the benefit phase, of the oligomer.
