AQUEOUS COSMETIC PREPARATIONS CONTAINING TARTARIC-ACID OR CITRIC-ACID ESTERS OF ALKYL POLYGLUCOSE AND CATIONIC OR AMPHOTERIC POLYMERS

摘要

The invention relates to aqueous cosmetic preparations for the treatment of the hair or skin, on the basis of a mild surface-active agent. Said preparations contain: as surface-active agent at least one ester of a hydroxy-substituted bi- or tricarboxylic acid (A) of general formula (I), in which X is H or a CH2COOR group; Y is H or OH, provided that Y is H if X is CH2COOR; R, R?1 and R2¿ independently of each other are a hydrogen atom, an alkali or alkaline earth metal cation, an ammonium group, the cation of an ammonium-organic base or a rest Z which stems from a polyhydroxylated organic compound selected from the group comprising etherified (C¿6?-C18)-alkyl polysaccharides with between 1 and 6 monomeric saccharide units and etherified aliphatic (C6-C16)-hydroxyalkyl polyols with between 2 and 16 hydroxyl rests, provided that at least one of the groups R, R?1 or R2¿ is a rest Z; and at least one polymer (B) selected from the cationic polymers and amphoteric polymers. The above preparations are characterized by exceptional mildness and highly effect.
