This invention describes cosmetic, cleaning and care products compositions
made using an evaporable siloxane liquid support or carrier having the
molecular formula: M.sub.vM'.sub.wD.sub.xT.sub.yQ.sub.z where the
subscripts may have the following values: x=0, 1, 2, 3, or 4; y=0, 1, or
2; z=0, 1, 2, 3, or 4; and v and w may be zero or a positive integer
subject to the limitation that v+w.gtoreq.1 where the components are
defined as follows:
M=(R.sup.1O).sub.a(R.sup.2O).sub.bR.sup.3.sub.cSiO.sub.1/2 where the
subscripts may have the following values: a=1, 2, or 3; b=0, 1, or 2;
c=0, 1, or 2; subject to the limitation that a+b+c=3 except when
w+x+y+z=0 then a+b+c=4;
M'=(R.sup.1O).sub.d(R.sup.2O).sub.eR.sup.4.sub.fSiO.sub.1/2 where the
subscripts may have the following values: d=1, 2, or 3; e=0, 1, or 2;
f=0, 1, or 2; subject to the limitation that d+e+f=3;
D=R.sup.5R.sup.6SiO.sub.2/2; T=R.sup.7SiO.sub.3/2; and Q=SiO.sub.4/2;
where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are selected from the group of linear or
branched monovalent hydrocarbon radicals having from one to eight carbon
atoms and where each R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, and R.sup.7 is
independently selected from the group of monovalent hydrocarbon radicals
having from one to sixty carbon atoms; and mixtures thereof.
