' Patented Sept. 9, 1930 UNITED STATES ARDAS HES MALKASIAN, OF EUGENE, OREGON SHAMPOOING- SOAP No Drawing.

This invention relates to soaps and more particularly to a soap to be used when shampooing the hair.

One object of the invention is to produce a soap which will form agood lather when used and very thoroughly clean the scalp and remove dandruff.

Another object of the invention is to provide a soap which when used for shampooing will not only eliminate dandruff but also prevent the scalp from itching and stop hair from falling out.

Another object of the invention is to impart gloss to the hair and make it soft and flufi'y.

The ingredients from which the soap is made and the proportions used are as follows, it being understood that larger quantities may be used if a larger quantity of soap is to be made:

3 ounces of e gs (yolks and whites weighed before beating? 3 tablespoons of olive oil,

1 tablespoon of kerosene,

1 teaspoon of cold water,

1 teaspoon (level) of lye. I

The purpose of the eggs is to supply an oily substance which is contained in the yolk and which is very beneficial to the hair in that it makes it flufl'y and soft. The olive oil increases the growth and thickness of the hair. The water is merely .used to dissolve the lye. Lye thickens the mixture and a hard or soft form may be produced by varying the amount used. The kerosene cleans the scalp and keepsit white and is very effective in re moving dandruff which is nothing more nor less than dry skin from a tight and hardened scalp as it softens thescalp and oils it to the 40 extent that continual pealing is avoided.

The method of mixing the ingredients to produce the soap is as follows:

The eggs and olive oil are beaten together and the lye is poured into the cold water until it dissolves and becomes cold. The egg and oil mixture is then poured into the lye and mixed thoroughly until it thickens, after which it is heated until it dissolves and is then poured into a glass of cold Water stirred once and allowed to cool, the mixture remain- Application filed November 19, 1928. Serial No. 320,538.

ing in the glass until the soap comes to the surface and the water remains at the bottom of the glass. During this process the strength of the lye leaves the soap so that no harm can come from it. The soap then is removed from the water and set on the fire to heat again. The kerosene is put in with the mixture last of all along with a few drops of perfume to give it a fragrant odor. A porcelain container should be used when heating and the perfume should not be added until the soap is almost cold.

The natural thicknessof this soap is some-- what thicker than shaving cream and can be put up either in tubes or jars.

An alternative method of compounding the ingredients is as follows:

Beat the olive oil and eggs together and then mix the remainder of the ingredients with it until the resulting mixture becomes lumpy. This mixture is placed over a fire and stirred constantly until the lumps dissolve but not allowed to boil. It is then removed from the fire and a suitable amount of fragrant odor mixed with it.

What is claimed is: i

The process of preparing a shampoo soap which consists in beating together eggsyolks and whites-an l olive oil, then adding to the mixture a solution of lye and water, subsequently heating the resultant product to dissolve the constituents, then pouring the saponified mixture into cold water and allowing it to stand until the soap floats and the excess lye separates, finally heating the soap which has been removed from the water, and adding kerosene thereto.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
