Complex salt for anti-spotting detergents

Provided is a method of using a complex salt as anti-spotting detergents, the complex salt being formed by the reaction of a photo-bleaching component having a water-soluble anionic substituent and a cationic surfactant. The complex salt is water insoluble in a stationary state, such as hand washing or pre-soaking for machine washing, so it effectively suppress the spotting of the photo-bleaching component into the interwoven webs of fabric. In addition, the complex salt can uniformly and rapidly dissolve in an agitating state, such as when machine washing, to allow the photo-bleaching component to absorb into fabric for effective bleaching and enhanced detergency.

Composition for treating hair against chemical and photo damage

The present invention relates to a hair treatment composition which provides an excellent finishing effect and superior protection against environmental, chemical, and grooming-associated damage. The compositions of the present invention comprise hydrolyzed protein having an abundance of anionic amino acids and in particular, sulphur-containing amino acids, as well as divalent cationic compounds, such that the anionic components of the hydrolyzed protein may effectively bind to the hair by means of cationic bridges. While bound to the hair, the sulphur containing amino acids in the hydrolyzed protein may serve as "decoys" for the effects of a variety of damaging agents. Compositions of the present invention may further comprise a vitamin compound which enhances these protective benefits.
