This invention relates to a novel
ion-pair
delivery system useful for gender and ethnic background selective
hair care and nail care applications in which an
electron donor composition and an
electron acceptor composition, or a
proton donor composition and a
proton acceptor composition, or an anionic and a cationic composition, are combined synergistically. The
bioavailability, deposition, functional performance, and
consumer aesthetics of the compositions thus combined in such
ion-pairs are enhanced synergistically.
Hair care compositions, such as
shampoo, conditioner, hair
lotion, hair oil, hair gel, hair sheen, hair rinse, hair balm,
hair wax,
hair spray, and such, and nail care compositions, such as nail enamel, nail creams, nail serums, nail lacquers, nail spray, and
nail polish, and such, can thus be obtained with synergistically enhanced performance.
