Abstract

The present invention relates to personal product compositions which comprise aldobionamide (i.e. amide of an aldobionic acid or aldobionalactone) as a surfactant in the compositions. The aldobionamide compounds are based on compounds comprising two or more saccharide units. It is believed that such compounds pack less closely, are more water soluble than linear saccharides and thereby allow stable compositions to form more readily.
