The lamellar phase creams were prepared by mixing the methyl paraben, BHT, CTAC and cetearyl alcohol in 70% of the total water at 75°C under low shear and then under vacuum at high shear. A hydroxyethyl cellulose dispersion was prepared in the remaining 30% of the water and heated to 75°C under low shear. The cellulose dispersion was then added to the initial mixture under low shear, followed by addition of the oil (tricaprylin). 5 minutes of high shear under vacuum was then undertaken. The resultant mixture was slowly cooled with low shear mixing. Silicone fluid and phenoxy ethanol were then added. Triethanolamine was added r followed by perfume and then high shear mixing under vacuum was conducted.
The Examples were applied to hair switches and the styling performance was assessed. For this purpose 0.5g of hair cream was applied to a straight, flat, 2.5 cm wide, 25 cm long hair switch weighing 5g. The cream was spread through the hair and subsequently the hair was pressed together to create a volume down effect. After styling the frontal area of each switch was assessed by image analysis. Performance was benchmarked against a current commercial hair cream material {referred to as benchmark). The following results were obtained:

Benchmark 5900+400

These results show that to achieve parity performance with the benchmark at least 20% of oil needs to be used in the composition.
Example 1 vs Example B
The performance of Example 1 above (CTAC lamellar gel phase » + 30% tricaprylin) was compared to comparative Example B. Example B did not have the required lamellar phase.

Example B was prepared as a normal Oil-in-Water emulsion.
Examples 1 and B were evaluated by a trained quantitative consumer panel and the following results were obtained (attributes scored on a scale from 0 to 100):

Attribute Example 1 Example B
Stickiness of hair 32 39
Ease of styling 66 60
Hold of style 61 58
Examples 1 and B were further evaluated by a panel (80 people) and the following results were obtained {attributes scored on a scale from 0 to 5) :

Attribute Example 1 Example B
Can create style 3.11 2.84
Hair is not sticky 3.73 3.57
Initial hold of style 3.11 2.82

Based on these results it was concluded that the lamellar gel cream + oil gives a better balance of styling properties and good sensory feel than the non-lamellar phase cream base + oil.
The following are also examples of stable formulations according to the invention, which give good styling properties to hair without feeling sticky on application.
