FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The permanent alteration of the colour of keratinous fibers, in particular human hair, by the application of hair dyes is well known. In order to provide the consumer with the hair colour and the intensity of the colour desired, very complex chemical processes are utilized. Permanent hair colouring formulations typically comprise oxidative hair dye precursors, which can diffuse into the hair through the cuticle and into the cortex where they can then react with each other and suitable oxidizing agents to form the end dye molecule. Due to the larger size of these resultant molecules they are unable to readily diffuse out of the hair during subsequent washing with water and/or detergent; hence delivering a consumer-desired permanency of colour. This reaction typically takes place at pH from about 8.5 to about 10.5 (approximately pH 10) in the presence of an alkalizing agent and an oxidizing agent.

Despite the fact that commercial hair colouring products have been available for many years, the products still exhibit a number of consumer-related deficiencies.

Typically, permanent hair dye products will contain an alkaline compound or at least a compound generating an alkaline compound under specific circumstances, typically a source of ammonia. This serves the purpose of swelling the hair allowing the entry of the dy e precursor molecules into the hair and also improves tlie lightening effect of the oxidizing agent, which is typically hydrogen peroxide. Ammonia shows the best hair colouring and/or bleaching performance as well as hair damage profile, versus alternative alkalizing agents. However, ammonia is also volatile and its associated odour is extremely unpleasant to the consumers of such products, particularly as these hair colouring and/or bleaching products are used in close proximity to the nasal region. Hence, it would be highly desirable to provide an oxidative hair colouring and/or bleaching composition, and kit thereof, which delivers the consumer recpired lightening level and colour but which has reduced or eliminated the detectable ammonia odour,

A number of attempts have been described in the literature to address the above identified improvement areas. For example, it has been described hair colouring and/or bleaching compositions comprising carbonate and/or carbamate compounds. It has also been described hair colouring and/or bleaching compositions comprising an alkalizing agent alternative to ammonia and its salts, such as monoethanolarnine. it lias also been described to use compounds blocking and/or antagonizing the odour of ammonia. How- ever these previous attempts have not proven fully satisfactory vis-a-vis further criteria, as they may exhibit a limited hair colouring and/or bleaching performance including limited colour delivery, uptake and/or durability; significant damages to the hair including brittle fibre formation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition comprising at least a first aqueous component (i) and a second aqueous component (ii) being mixed prior to application onto hair, wherein the first aqueous component (i) comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier one or more oxidizing agent(s) and the second aqueous component (ii) comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier one or more alkalizing agent(s) selected from the group consisting of ammonia, its salts and mixtures thereof wherein the first component (i) or the second component (ii) or both components (i) and (ii) comprise a gel-network system consisting of multi-lamellar sheets and vesicles with d-spacing (interlay er spacing between sheets) between 5 nm and 50nm, including lOnm to 30 nm, including 15 nm to 25 nm as measured by Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS), and the first component (i) or the second component (ii) or both comprise at least a first malodor suppressant being a compound having a distribution coefficient logP of 2 or more and a molecular weight of between 100 and 400 or a at least first and a second malodor suppressant, both being a compound Slaving a distribution coefficient logP of 2 or more and a molecular weight of between 100 and 400. It also relates to kit, method and use thereof. The present invention provides superior hair treatment performance, particularly superior colouring and bleaching performance, with a reduced or even eliminated smell ofone or more malodourous active ingredients upon application.

There is the need thereof for providing a composition comprising ammonia and/or its salts thereof, which releases a reduced or no odour, especially upon application onto hair. There is also the need for providing a composition comprising ammonia and/or its salts thereof, which releases a reduced or no odour, while containing sufficiently high amounts of ammonia in order to provide superior hair treatment performance. There is also the need for providing a composition comprising ammonia and/or its salts thereof, releasing a reduced or no odour, without imparting significant damages onto the hair fibers. Particularly, there is the need thereof for providing a composition releasing a reduced or no ammonia odour, upon application onto hair. There is also the need for providing a composition releasing a reduced or no ammonia odour, while providing superior hair colouring and bleaching performance. There is also the need for providing a composition releasing a reduced or no ammonia odour, without imparting significant damages onto the hair fibers.

It has now been found that the use of specific malodor suppressants in a composition for hair treatment which is prone to the release of malodorous substances such as ammonia, and which comprises a gel-network s stem, results in a significant decrease of malodor release and especially a significant decrease in malodor perception of the user of such a hair treatment composition.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Figure 1 shows the ammonia release kinetic of the 2.41% NH3 solution and the 2.15% NHS solution with Gaiaxolide/IPM without stirring in the vessel (Examples 1 and 2). The sample with IPM/Galaxolide shows a lower ammonia release. Since a film of the nonpo!ar liquid was observable on the solution, it might be a physical effect.

Figure 2 shows the behavior of the ammonia release kinetic with stirring. No significant differences are observable, which supports the assumption of a physical effect in Fig. I.

Figure 3 shows the ammonia release kinetic of GN (tint) with Welloxon 6% without stirring (Examples 3 and 4).

Figure 4 shows the ammonia release kinetic of GN with Welloxon 6% with stirring (Examples 5 and 6). The curve GN without Galaxolide/IPM is above the curve GN with Galaxolide/IPM. That means that more ammonia is released from the mixture without Galaxolide/IPM. Figure 5 shows the ammonia re!ease kinetic of GN (tint) with Welioxon 6% (Experiments 3 to 6) without stirring.

Figure 6 shows the ammonia release kinetic of NGN (tint) with Welioxon 6% (Experiments 7 and 8) without stirring.

Figure 7 shows the ammonia release kinetic of GN (tint) with Welioxon 6% with stirring.

Figure 8 shows the ammonia release kinetics of a NGN mixtvire with stirring.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

As used herein the term "hair" to be treated may be "living" i.e. on a living body or may be "non-living" i.e. in a wig, hairpiece or other aggregation, of non-living keratmous fibers. Mammalian, such as human hair is preferred. However wool, fur and other keratin containing fibers are suitable substrates for the compositions according to the present invention.

By "hair colouring" composition, it is meant a composition suitable for changing the colour of hair.

The hair colouring composition is referred hereinafter as "the composition", unless otherwise specified. The hair colouring composition may comprise oxidative dye precursors, direct dyes or even no, or substantially no, dyes in case of bleaching only compositions where the change of colour is mainly caused by the degradation of the natural melanin contained in the hair shaft by the oxidizing agent. The term "hair colouring" composition as used herein covers hair bleaching and hair oxidative dyeing products.

All percentages are by weight of the final hair treatment composition (hair colouring composition or hair treatment compositon), i.e. of the ready-to-use composition which is the composition to be applied on hair, unless otherwise specified. When a ready-to-use composition is prepared by mixing two or more components comprising ingredients to be mixed for the desired effect, the amount of these ingredients is can also provided based on the weight of the component comprising such an ingredient, in case of the present text, e.g., component i) and component ii).

When more than one composition are used during a treatment, the total weight to be considered is the total weight of all the compositions applied on the hair simultaneously (i.e. the weight found "on head"), typically resulting from mixing an oxidative composition (also called developer and/or oxidizing composition/component) with a dye composition (also called tint, and'or dye composition/component), unless otherwise specified. All ratios or percentages are weight ratios or weight percentages unless specifically stated otherwise. in a first aspect, the present invention relates to a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition comprising at least a first aqueous component (i) and a second aqueous component (ii) being mixed prior to application onto hair.

The first aqueous component (i) and the second aqueous component (ii) may be mixed prior to application to hair in a ratio ranging from 5 : 1 to 1 :5, e.g., from 3 : 1 to 1:3 or from 2: 1 to 1:2, in some cases they may be mixed in a ratio of about of 1 : 1

The first aqueous component (i) is often called '"developer", and comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier one or more oxidizing agent(s). Any oxidizing agent known in the art may be used. Preferred oxidizing agents are water-soluble peroxy gen oxidizing agents. As used herein, "water-soluble" means that in standard conditions at least O. lg, including Ig, including IOg of the oxidizing agent can be dissolved in 1 liter of deionized water at 25°C. The oxidizing agents are valuable for the initial solubilisa- tion and decolonisation of the melanin (bleachi g) and accelerate the oxidation of the oxidative dye precursors (oxidative dyeing) in the hair shaft.

The first aqueous component may comprise a total amount of oxidizing agents ranging from 0.1% to 12%, alternatively from 1% to 9%, alternatively from 2% to 6%, by total weight of the composition.

Suitable water-soluble oxidizing agents include, but are not limited to: inorganic peroxy gen materials capable of yielding hydrogen peroxide in an aqueous solution. Suitable water-soluble peroxygen oxidizing agents include, but are not limited to: hydrogen peroxide; inorganic alkali metal peroxides (such as sodium periodate and sodium peroxide); organic peroxides (such as urea peroxide and melamine peroxide); inorganic perhydrate salt bleaching compound s (such as the alkali metal salts of perborates, per- carbonates, perphosphaies, persilicates, persulphates and the like); and mixtures thereof. inorganic perhydrate salts may be incorporated for example as monohydrates, tetrahy- drates. Alkyl/aryl peroxides and/or peroxidases may also be used. Mixtures of two or more such oxidizing agents can be used if desired. The oxidizing agents may be provided in aqueous solution or as a powder which is dissolved prior to use.

In a specific embodiment, the composition comprises a water-soluble oxidizing agent selected from the group consisting of hydrogen peroxide, percarbonat.es (which may be used to provide a source of both oxidizing agent and carbonate ions and or ammonium ions), persulphates, and mixtures thereof; alternatively a water-soluble oxidizing agent being hydrogen peroxide.

The second aqueous component (ii), generally called "tint," comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier one or more alkalizing agentis) selected from the group consisting of ammonia, its salts and mixtures thereof. The group can, e.g., consist of ammonia, ammonium halides, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium lactate, ammonium glycinate, ammonium aspartate, ammonium nitrate, ammonium perchlorate, ammonium carbonate, ammonium hydrogen carbonate, ammonium silicate, ammonium borate, and mixtures of two or more thereof. The group can further consist of ammonia, ammonium carbonate, and mixtures thereof; It can be preferred, if the the alkalizing agent is ammonia or the alkalizing agent is ammonium carbonate. If both present, the ammonium ions and the carbonate ions are present in the second aqueous component (ii) at a weight ratio of from 3 : 1 to 1 : 10, alternatively from 2: 1 to 1 :5.

The second aqueous component (ii) may comprise a total amount of alkalizing agents ranging from 0.1% to 10%, alternatively from 0.5% to 6%, alternatively from 1% to 4%, by total weight of the composition.

According to the inventuion the first component (i) or the second component (ii) or both components (i) and (ii) comprise a gel-network system consisting of multilamellar sheets and multi lamellar vesicles both showing a d-spacing (interlayer spacing between sheets) between 5 nm and 50nm, preferably lOnm to 30 nm, more preferred 15 nm to 25 nm as measured by Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS).

The presence of multi-lamellar sheets and multi lamellar vesicles is generally easily confirmed via electron microscopy. Multi-lamellar sheets can usually be observed as elongated sheet like structures, which can be essentially straight or slightly curved or bent. Multi lamellar vesicles are observable as small, generally rounded or elliptical structures with a comparatively small spatial extension. It can be preferred according to the the invention, when at least the second aqueous component comprises such a gel- network-system.

Generally, gel-network systems are well known. They are, e.g., available by- heating a dispersion of a fatly alcohol in water with a surfactant to a temperature above the melting point of the fatty alcohol and mixing the dispersion. During the mixing process, the fatty alcohol melts, allowing the surfactant to partition into the fatty alcohol droplets. The surfactant transports water into the fatty alcohol droplets. This changes the isotropic lain alcohol drops into liquid crystalline phase drops. When the mixture is cooled below the melt temperature of the formed liquid cry stal phase the liquid crystal phase is converted into a crystalline gel network phase. The gel-network may in some cases not yet be completely formed immediately after the end of the mixing process, but will develop over a short period of time, e.g., in some cases after 1 to 10 hours, in some cases after 10 to 48 hours or in some cases after 2 to 5 days or even longer periods of up to 10 days.

In one embodiment, if a component according to the invention comprises a fatty alcohol in order to form a liquid crystalline gel-network phase. The fatty alcohol may be selected from the group consisting of linear and/or branched CI 2 to C30 fatty alcohols, i.e., fatty alcohols with 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 or 30 carbon atoms in the carbon chain or a mixture of two or more of such alcohols. The range of advantageous chain lengths can be from C14 to C28 or from CI4 to C26; e.g., the fatty alcohol can be chosen from the group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, cetearyl achohol, belie nyl alcohol, any mixtures of two, three or more thereof. The component may comprise from 0.5% to 20%, alternatively from 2% to 10%, alternatively from 4% to 8%, of fatty alcohol by total weight of the composition. The amount of each particular fatty alcohol or mixtures thereof described hereinbefore can account for up to 100% (or 100%) of the total amount of fatty alcohol(s) in the composition.

The composition comprises a non-ionic surfactant. The non-ionic surfactant may be selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene C12 to C30 alkyl ethers, i.e., from alkyl ethers of fatty alcohols having 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 or 30 carbon atoms in the carbon chain, e.g. polyoxyethylene C14 to C28 alkyl ethers or polyoxyethylene C14 to C26 alkyl ethers. It can be preferred if the non-ionic surfactant is selected from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene C12 to C30 alky! ethers liaving at least 2 ethylene oxide units, e.g., from the group consisting of polyoxyethylene C12 to C30 alkyl ethers, e.g. polyoxyethylene C14 to C28 alkyl ethers or polyox ethylene C14 to C26 alkyl ethers, having from 20 to 300 or from 25 to 200 or from 50 to 200 ethylene oxide units, or from the group consisting of polyox ethylene C12 to C30 alkyl ethers, e.g. polyoxyethylene C14 to C28 alkyl ethers or polyoxyethylene C14 to C26 alkyl ethers, having from 100 to 200 ethylene oxide units, e.g., from the group consisting of ceteareth-25, steareth-20, steareth-100, steareth-150, steareth-200, and mixtures of two or more thereof. Other non-ionic surfactants which can optionally be used according to the invention are polyeth lenegl col fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene castor oil, poly- oxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, polyoxyethylene fatty amides and their monoeth- anolamine and diethanolamine derivatives and poi ethox lated fatty amines, and mixtures thereof.

Alternatively, the non-ionic surfactant(s) may be free of poly ethylene oxide chains. Representative examples of non- ionic surfactants free of pol ethyleneoxide chains include polyglycerolated fatty acids, polyglycerolated fatty amides, polyglycer- olated alkyl phenols, polyglycerolated [alpha] -diols, polyglycerolated alcohols, alkyl polyglucosides, sugar esters and mixtures thereof.

The composition may comprise from 0.1% to 5%, e.g., from 0.2% to 3%, or from 0.4% to 1.5%, of non-ionic surfactant by total weight of the overall composition. As all nonionic surfactants may be present in one of components (i) or (ii) it may thus be that component (i) comprises from 0.1% to 5%, e.g., from 0.2% to 3%, or from 0.4% to 1.5%, of non-ionic surfactant or component (ii) comprises from 0.1 % to 5%, e.g., from 0.2% to 3%, or from 0.4% to 1.5%, of non-ionic surfactant.

Any of the components (i) or (ii) or both may, in some cases, comprise a phosphate ester compound selected from the group consisting of alky 1 phosphate esters, alkoxylated alk l phosphate esters, and mixtures thereof. The phosphate ester compound may be selected from the group consisting of C12 to C30 ailcyl phosphate esters, alkoxylated C12 to C30 alkyl phosphate esters, and mixtures thereof, e.g., from the group consisting of C12 to CI 8 alkyl phosphate esters, alkoxylated CI 2 to CI 8 alkyl phosphate esters, and mixtures thereof, or from the group consisting of oleth-3 phos- phate, oleth-5 phosphate, oleth- 10 phosphate, cetoleth-5 phosphate, cetoleth-10 phosphate, trideceth-5 phosphate, trideceth-6 phosphate, trideceth-10 phosphate, cetyl phosphate, dicetyl phosphate, oleyl phosphate, dioleyl phosphate, stearyl phosphate, C9-15 alkyl phosphate, ceteareth-2 phosphate, ceteareth-20 phosphate, ceteth-10 phosphate, deceth-4 phosphate, glycereth-26 phosphate, PPG-5-ceteth-10 phosphate, steareth-2 phosphate, DEA-oleth-3 phosphate, DEA-oieth-3 phosphate, PEG-5 eth lhexyl ether phosphate, and mixtures thereof, or from the group consisting of PPG-5 -ceteth-10 phosphate, oleth-3 phosphate, oleth-10 phosphate, ceteth-10 phosphate, dicetyl phosphate, cetyl phosphate, stearyl phosphate, ceteareth-2 phosphate, and mixtures thereof or from the group consisting of ceteth-10 phosphate, dicetyl phosphate, ceteareth-2 phosphate, and mixtures thereof, it is also possible that a component comprises mixtures of two or more compounds from two or more alternative groups.

Commercially suitable raw materials include materials of the Crodafos™ Series from Croda, particularly Crodafos™ CES, Crodafos™ CS2A. Crodafos™ CES comprises cetearyl alcohol, dicetyl phosphate, ceteth-10 phosphate. Crodafos™ CS2A com- prises ceteareth-2-phosphate. The composition may comprise from 0.01% to 40%, alternatively from 0.1% to 20%, alternatively from 1% to 10%, alternatively from 2% to 8% of the phosphate ester compound by total weight of the composi ti on.

it can be preferred that the composition is free of any phosphate ester compound other than the phosphate ester compound selected from the group consisting of alkyl phosphate esters, alkoxylated alkyl phosphate esters, and mixtures thereof.

The fatty alcohol, the non-ionic surfactant, and the optional phosphate ester compound are comprised, in part or all, in a gel network system. The gel network significantly contributes in reducing, or even eliminating, the ammonia odour, when combined with the specific malodour reducing compounds described hereinafter.

From 50% to 100%, alternatively from 70% to 100%, alternatively from 90% to

100%, alternatively substantially 100% of the fatty alcohol present in the composition can be comprised within the gel network. From 50% to 100%, alternatively from 70% to 100%, alternatively from 90% to 100%, alternatively substantially 100% of the non- ionic surfactant present in the composition is comprised within the gel network. From 50% to 100%, alternatively from 70% to 100%, alternatively from 90% to 100%, alternatively substantially 100% of the phosphate ester compound present in the composition is comprised within the gel network. The amount of fatty alcohol in the gel network can, e.g., be determined by DSC measurements.

The first component (i) or the second component (li) or both comprise at least a first maiodor suppressant being a compound having a distribution coefficient log ^' P of 2 or more and a molecular weight of between 100 and 400 or a at least first and a second maiodor suppressant, both being a compound having a distribution coefficient logP of 2 or more and a molecular weight of between 100 and 400.

In the fields of organic and medicinal chemistry, a partition (P) coefficient is the ratio of concentrations of a compound in the two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Hence these coefficients are a measure of differential solubility of the compound between these two solvents. One of the solvents chosen is water while the second is octanol. Hence the partition coefficient is a measure of how hydrophilic ("water loving") or hydrophobic ("water fearing") a chemical substance is. The partition coefficient is the ratio of concentrations of un-ionized compound between the two solutions. The logarithm of the ratio of the concentrations of the un-ionized solute in the solvents is ca!led log P:

It can be preferred if in a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition according to the invention the first maiodor suppressant or the first and the second maiodor suppressant comprise at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of keto group, aldehyde group, ether group, ester group or hydroxy! group or two or mor of such groups, either of the same type or of one or more different types.

While generally all types of maiodor suppressants according to t!ie teaching of the present invention provide for a reduced maiodor of the claimed hair colouring and/or bleaching composi tion, it has proven to beadvantageous in many cases if at least the first maiodor suppressant has a logP (octanol/water) of less than 9. This can also be advantageous if only one maiodor suppressant is present.

Apart from the successful use of a single maiodor suppressant, it is also possible that a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition according to the invention comprises a first maiodor suppressant being a compound having a distribution coefficient logP (octanol/water) of 2 or more and a molecular weig!it of between 100 and 400 and at least a second malodor suppressant being a compound having a distribution coefficient logP (octanol/water) of 3 or more and a molecular weight of between 100 and 400, the first malodor suppressant and the second malodor suppressant being different compounds and at least one of the first and second malodor suppressants being liquid at 23 °C and 1013 mbar and the first and second malodor suppressant forming a solution upon mixing.

It can be preferred if the first malodor suppressant is selected from the group consisting of isoprop lmyristate, gaiaxolide, habanolide or mixtures of isoprop lmy- ristate and gaiaxolide or isopropylm ristate and habanolide or galaxoiide and habanolide.

It can further be preferred if the second malodor suppressant is selected from the group consisting of isopropylmyristate, galaxoiide, habanolide or mixtures of isopropylmyristate and galaxoiide or isopropylm ristate and habanolide or gaiaxolide and habanolide.

It has often proven to be successful if the first and the second malodor suppressant are, e.g., isopropylmyristate and habanolide, or isopropylmyristate and gaiaxolide.

In a further rembidement of the invention the first and second malodor suppressants are a liquid at 23°C and 1013mbar In a still further embodiment of the invention in a combination of first and second malodor suppressants at least two malodor suppressants have a logP of 3 or more and a molecular weight of 100-400.

Generally the malodor suppressant can be present in any of the components (i) or (ii) or in both components, it has, however, proven in some cases to be advantageous if the malodor suppressant is present in at least the component which comprises a gel- network as defind above, preferably at least in the component comprising the ammonia compound or two or more ammonia compounds.

In a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition according to the in vention the malodor suppressant or the combination of first and second malodor suppressants can be present in the first composition (i) in an amount of 0 to 70 % by weight, and the com- bined amount of malodor suppressant in the first and second composition is at ieast 0.01% by weight, or the combination of malodor suppressants is present in the first composition (i) in an amount of 0 to 40 % by weight, and the combined amount of malodor suppressant in the first and second composition is at least 0.1 % by weight.

In a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition according to the invention the malodor suppressant can be present in the second composition (ii) in an amount of 0 to 70% by weight, and the combined amount of malodor suppressant in the first and second composition is at least 0.01 % by weight, or the combination of malodor suppres- sants is present in the second composition (is) in an amount of 0 to 40 % by weight, and the combined amount of malodor suppressants in the first and second composition is at ieast 0.1 % by weight.

The viscosity of a hair coloring and/or bleaching composition according to the invention, the composition should, after mixing, have a viscosity which enables an adaption to generally all useful ways of applying the composition to the hair. This can be, e.g., a very fluid state of matter which enables a rapid application, but can also be a more viscous state, which allows for a longer residence time on the hair also under vertical conditions. Thus, it can be preferred if the hair coloring and/or bleaching composi- tion according to the invention after mixing of compositions (i) and (ii), has a viscosity of from 200 to 2000 cPs, e.g., from 300 to 1500 cPs or from 400 to 1000 cPs. Viscosity is measured using Brookfield viscometers with cone and plate attachment. For viscosities in the range of 0 to 12000 cPs, the Brookfield DV-1 i viscometer with S42 plate is used. 2ml sample of the composition is equilibrated at 26.7°C for three minutes before the readings are taken at 1 rpm.

The hair coloring and/or bleaching composition can further comprise fatty compound^) selected from the group consisting of mineral oil, h drocarbon oil, and mixtures thereof in an amount of up to 30%, by total weight of the composition, e.g., in an amount of 10.1 to 28% or 1.5 to 25% or 1 to 15%) or 3 to 10% by weight.. Commercially suitable raw materials include materials of the Marcol™ Series from ExxonMobile, particularly Marcol™ 52 and Marcol™ 82.

The composition comprises a cosmetically acceptable carrier or solvent. The solvent may be selected from water, or a mixture of water and at least one organic solvent to dissolve the compounds that would not typically be sufficiently soluble in water.

Suitable organic solvents include, but are not limited to: CI to C4 lower alka- nols (such as ethanol, propanoL isopropanol): aromatic alcohols (such as benz l alcohol and phenoxy ethanol); polyols and polyol ethers (such as carbitols, 2-butox ethanol, propylene glycol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, monomethyl ether, hexy lene glycol, glycerol, ethoxy glycol, butoxydiglycol, eth- oxydi glycerol, dipropy!eneglyeo!, polyglycero!); propylene carbonate; and mixtures thereof.

The solvent may be selected from the group consisting of water, ethanol, propa- nol, isopropanol, glycerol, 1 ,2-propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, ethoxy diglycol, and mixtures thereof.

The composition may comprise water as a main ingredient, particularly in a total amount ranging from at least 50%, alternatively from at least 60%, alternatively from at least 70%, by total weight of the composition. Typically, when present, the composition comprises a total amount of organic solvents ranging from 1% to 30%, by total weight of the composition.

The composition may further comprise oxidative dye precursors, which are usually classified either as primary intermediates (also known as developers) or couplers (also known as secondary intermediates). Various couplers may be used with primary intermediates in order to obtain different shades. Oxidative dye precursors may be free bases or the cosmetically acceptable salts thereof. The oxidative dye precursors are generally present in hair treatment compositions which are hair colorants and usually are part of the composition called "tint", i.e., in the present case in component (ii).

Typically, the composition may comprise a total amount of oxidative dye precursors ranging up to 12%, alternatively from 0.1% to 10%, alternatively from 0.3% to 8%, alternatively from 0.5% to 6%, by total weight of the composition, preferably all comprised in a single component, in the present ease preferably component (ii).

The description of components (i) and (ii) above also applies to components (i) and (ii) of the kit. In the hair colouring or bleaching kit according to the invention the malodor suppressant is selected from the group of compounds described above and named "list of malodor suppressants."

individually packaged components mean that they may be packaged in separate containers or in compartmented containers. The consumer mixes the first component and the second component together immediately before use and applies it onto the hair. The first and the second components may be mixed from 5sec to 3min, alternatively from ISsec to 2min, alternatively for 30 sec to lmin prior application to the hair.

After working the combined mixture for a few minutes (to insure uniform application to all of the hair), the hair colouring and/or bleaching composition is allowed to remain on the hair for an amount sufficient for the dyeing to take place, usually from 2min to 60min, typically from 30min to 45min. The consumer or salon professional tiien rinses the hair thoroughly with water and o: shampoo and allows it to dry. It will be observed that the hair lias changed from its original colour to the desired colour.

The kit may also comprise a third component selected from the group consisting of a conditioning composition, a pre-treatment composition, and/or a colour refresher composition. The pre-treatment may be applied onto hair, before applying the hair colouring and/or bleaching composition. The conditioning composition, comprising a conditioning agent, may be mixed together with the first and the second component prior to application onto hair, or may be alternatively applied separately onto hair, for example after applying the hair colouring and/or bleaching composition. The colour refresher composition, comprising optionally a pre-formed dye, may be applied after applying the hair colouring and/or bleaching composition. The component coidd be also a carrier for dye precursors or concentrates.

The invention also relates to a method of treating hair comprising the steps of applying a hair colouring or bleaching composition after mixing as described above or a composition obtainable as a mixture from a kit as described above to the hair, leaving said composition on the hair for from 2 to 60 minutes and subsequently rinsing said composition from the hair.

The method of colouring and/or dyeing hair comprises applying onto hair a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition as defined herein before. The method may comprise the steps of: providing a first component as defined hereinbefore; providing a second component as defined hereinbefore; mixing the first and the second components for obtaining a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition; applying the obtained composition onto hair, leaving the applied composition on hair from 5min to 60min, alternatively 10m in to 30min; optionally rinsing hair using a rinsing composition, alternatively rinsing hair with water; optionally cleansing hair using a cleansing composition; optionally treating hair with a conditioning and/or treating composition; and, optionally drying hair.

The compositions in each container of the kit can be manufactured utilizing any one of the standard approaches, these include a) Oil-in-water' process, b) ' Phase Inversion' process and c) One-pot' process. For example, when using "oil-in-water" process, surfactants of the present invention are added to approximatel 50% of total water amoimt of the composition at 90°C, homogenized for 15 to 30 min, then cooled to room temperature thus forming gel network thickener premix; this premix is then mixed cold with remaining amounts of water, other optional components and/or oxidizing agent, thus forming the first and second component parts of the above described bleaching or colouring kit. The present invention may be provided in a variety of packaging devices and/or dispensing devices. These dispensing devices can come in the form of separate devices which may be used independently or in combination with one another. Typically, the hair colouring and/or bleaching compositions are contained within separate single or multi-compartment containers so that the compositions can be stored separately from one another before use. The compositions are then mixed together by a mixing means and then dispensed from the device and applied to the consumer's hair by an application means.

The most common packaging device which can be used involves storing the de- veloper component in a container such as a bottle, tube, aerosol, or a sachet and separately storing the dye component in an additional compartment within the developer container or more preferably in a separate container which may be identical such as a dual sachet or aerosol systems for example or different such as a bottle and tube system. Any combination may be used and is ty ically contingent on the type of composition being stored i.e. whether or not it is a thick or thin type. The consumer or hair salon professional may mix the developer component and the tint component by any means, including by using a mixing bowl and/or a mixing tool, by adding one component into the container of the other component followed by mixing, or by perforating or displacing a seal located between the separate compartments of the components within a single container or sachet followed by mixing.

The devices described herein above can also be used in combination with a product delivery and or application tool to aid application of the product onto the hair, including using a nozzle attached to one of the containers, using a separate applicator device such as a comb or brush, using a comb attached to or instead of the dispensing nozzle whereby the product is dispensed through hollow tines and dispensing apertures located in the comb tines. The application devices may also include devices which assist in achieving particular effects such as highlighting such as highlighting combs, brushes and tools, foils and highlighting caps. Highlighting devices comprising a hinged device into which an amount of composition is placed and then used to apply the composition to predetermined /selected hair strands may also be used. Additional device technology can be used to assist in the penetration of the product into the hair. Examples of such technology include heating devices, ultraviolet light devices and ultrasound devices. The hair colouring and/or bleaching composition, and the corresponding first and second components, may be manufactured by conventional processes known in the art for manufacturing oxidative hair colouring and/or bleaching products, and ad-mixing the ingredients of each component composition in suitable vessels, followed by packaging in appropriate individual containers. The invention further relates to a method of sequential oxidative hair colouring or hair bleaching comprising the steps of at least two sequential oxidative hair colour or hair bleaching treatments, wherein the time period between each treatment is from 1 day to 60 days, and wherein each treatment comprises the steps of providing a composition as described above or obtainable as a mixture from a kit as described above, applying said composition to the hair and retaining said composition on the hair for a time period of less than 40 minutes and subsequently rinsing said composition from the hair. in another aspect, the invention relates to the use of a hair colouring and/or bleaching composition according to any of claims 1 to 21 or of a kit according to any of claims 22 or 23 for colouring and/or bleaching hair with a reduced or eliminated ammonia odour.

Experimental

SAXS and WAXS measurements were simultaneously carried out on a Xenocs Xeuss 2.0 instrument with the following specifications and settings:

Instrument working condition: 50kV / 0.6mA

Incident X-ray beam wave length: 1.541 nm

Beam size: 0.8mm x 0.8 mm

Sample-to-detector distance for SAXS: 1196mm

- Scan per sample: 60 minutes

The hair color or bleach composition was inserted into XRD quartz capillaries of 2mm diameters and 80 mm lenghts and then placed into a sample holder which is located between the X-Ray source and the SAXS/ WA S detectors.

In order to determine the influence of the malodor suppressants on different ammo- nia containing systems, test samples were provided and analyzed. Samples 1 and 2 were simple 25% solutions of ammonia in water. Gel-Network (GN) and Non -Gel-Network (NGN) samples were prepared as follows:

GN tint:

Raw Materials

Xanthan Gum 0.04

EDTA (tetrasodium salt) 0.05

Ascorbic Acid 0.2

Sodium sitfite 0.05

Sodium sulfate 0.5

EDDS (trisodium salt) 1

Sodium laur l sulfate 0.1

H3 suppression components 0.7

Water qs 83.115

NGN tint:

The developer consists of the following raw material composition: Welloxon 9%

Welloxon 6%

The wax components of the tint and developer examples are melted to 90°C. The melted wax mixture is then mixed with 90°C pre-heated water and continously stirred for 40 minutes. The resulting mixture is then allowed to cool down at a rate of 2°C/min to room temperature und continous stirring. In case of the GN mixture a gel- network system starts to form, consisting of multi-lamellar sheets and vesicles with a d- spacing (interla er spacing between sheets) of 25,5

nm as measured by Small Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS).

When mixture cools down to 40°C ammonia, perfume, perfume components for NH3 suppression, and the other non-wax components of the ingredients list are added to the creme under continous stirring till crenie cools down to room temperature (25 °C). The resulting creme is then either packed in aluminum tubes for tint or in PE bottles for developer and the Gel-Network is allowed to form for a minimum of 24 hours.

The total ammonia content of the following samples was analy zed (Table 1) by means of Kjeldahl analysis (GCAS: 58084429):

Table 1: Samples

Method

For Samples 1 and 2, 7.5g of the ammonia solution are mixed with 7,5 g of water. For samples 3 to 10, 7.5g sample and a developer (Welloxon Perfect 6%) are mixed 5 in an open bowl with a brash until homogeneous. The time until homogeneity was reached was taken for the first GN sample and for the first NGN sample and all following GN and NGN samples were mixed for the time taken for the respective first sample of the GN or NGN type. The obtained mixture is then transferred manually into a 1 1 3- neck round vessel with a KPG-stirrer which is then sealed. The headspace above the

S O mixture is then continuously driven through a gas cell by constant introduction of ambient air into the vessel, and analyzed by means of FTIR (with background correction for ambient air). A kinetic profile is recorded using the absorption bands of ammonia at 926 cm-1 and 966 cm-1 for 1000 seconds, in addition, the total ammonia is absorbed in a boric acid solution in order to quantify the total release by acidimetric titration.

Experiment 1 and 2: 7.5 g solution is diluted with 7.5 g water, respectively.

Experiment 3, 4, 5 and 6: 7.5 g tint is mixed with 7.5 g Welloxon Perfect 6%, respectively. Experiment 7/8: 7,5 g tint is mixed with 7.5g Welloxon Perfect 6%, respectively.

The results of the measurements are shown in Figs. I to 8. The absolute peak area values of different figures are not directly comparable and do not allow for a conclusion on an absolute effect. The peak area values of measurements within, a single figure are directly comparable and do allow for a conclusion on an absolute effect.

The behavior of GN mixture is different as compared with the NGN mixture. The maximum of ammonia release is at the beginning of the kinetic curve (NGN mixture). That means at the beginning during mixing there is more free ammonia with the NGN mixture resulting in an immediate unpleasant ma!odor.

The maximum of ammonia release is at the middle of the kinetic curve (GN mixture). That means the ammonia smells later as with NGN and the exposition of the user is delayed and damped, resulting in a more pleasant experience.

Total ammonia release

Table 2 and Table 3 show the total ammonia content of the samples, analyzed via jeldahl (GCAS 58084429) and the total ammonia released within 1000s measuring time. Every experiment consists of two measurements.

The examples show that the liquid crystalline Gel-Network nature of the aqueous component results in a significantly reduced release of ammonia at the presence of IPM alone as well as in the presence of Galaxolide or a mixture of IPM and Galaxolide. It is also shown that this effect cannot be observed for compositions without a liquid crystalline Gel-Network structure and that the effect of the presence of a single malodor suppressant such as IPM can even result in an increased release of ammonia. It further shows that, even in case of a comparable total release of ammonia, the release kinetics of the Gel-Network mixture (see Fig. 6) provide for a delayed release of Ammonia with simultaneous improvement of the perception of ammonia smell for the user.

Table 3: Paneltest

A paneltest was performed with 5 panelists with trained expertise in the classification of ammonia smells. The panelists received a mixture of tint and developer as described under GN and NGN above (stirred by a single operator for all tests until mix- tare was homogeneous). The panelists were asked to rate the ammonia smell according to a scale of 0 to 5, the mixture being passed from panelist to panelist with an additional stirring for each of the panelists.
