(57) [Summary]nThe present invention relates to a fabric softening composition that is added during rinsing, including a translucent or clear liquid composition. The composition of the present invention comprises a polyoxyalkylene alkylamide surfactant, which enhances fabric softness, improves the stability and formulation of dispersed phase liquids, and is translucent or transparent. Reduces major solvent levels when incorporated into liquid compositions. In its most basic form, the composition of the present invention comprises: a) from about 1 to about 80% by weight of the fabric softening active, b) less than about 15% by weight, having a ClogP of from about 0.15 to about 1. A major solvent, c) about 0.5 to about 10% by weight of a polyoxyalkylene alkylamide surfactant, and d) a carrier and auxiliary components that make up the balance. |
