Zusammenfassung:Provided are alkyl lactyllactate compositions that can be prepared from ( 1) lactide or alternatively lactic acid, and (2) a hydroxyl containing compo und such as an alcohol, preferably a fatty alcohol or an alkoxylated alcohol , with (3) an acid catalyst. Preferably, the fatty alcohol contains from abo ut 6 to 18 carbon atoms, such as lauryl alcohol. The alkyl lactyllactates ca n be used as surfactants, emulsifiers, skin feel agents, film formers, thick eners, rheological modifiers, etc., for personal care and other application areas. Compositions containing at least one alkyl lactyllactate are also pro vided. The compositions can further contain at least one surfactant
