Abstract:
The invention relates to nail composition sets comprising at least one primer comprising compound(s) other than acrylic latex and at least one color coat comprising at least one acrylic latex and water.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use, especially the cosmetic use, of at least one monosaccharide chosen from mannose, rhamnose and a mixture thereof, for reducing or preventing the signs of ageing of the skin or its integuments. The present invention also relates to a cosmetic composition and a device containing it.
Abstract:
A cosmetic composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion methods of using and producing cosmetic compositions is provided. The cosmetic composition includes an aqueous phase, an oil phase comprising a water-in-oil emulsifier, and an oil stabilizing component. The water-in-oil emulsifier is at concentration, by weight, of about 0.01% to about 6.0%, based upon weight of the composition. The oil stabilizing component includes one or both of an amphiphilic compound or a surfactant having an HLB of 13 or greater added to the aqueous phase. The oil stabilizing component is at a concentration, by weight, of about 0.01% to about 1.0%, based upon weight of the composition. The oil-in-water emulsion has an increased water load relative to water-in-oil emulsions without having an increased viscosity.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are cosmetic compositions comprising (1) at least one polyvinyl alcohol-styrylpyridinium polymer and (2) at least one latex film-forming polymer. Also disclosed herein are methods for making up and/or enhancing the appearance of a keratinous substrate comprising (1) forming a film on the keratinous substrate by applying to said keratinous substrate a cosmetic composition comprising (a) at least one polyvinyl alcohol-styrylpyridinium polymer and (2) at least one latex film-forming polymer and (2) exposing the film to radiation chosen from UV and visible light radiation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a composition containing an aqueous dispersion of colloidal particles of at least one mineral filler, and fibres. The invention also relates to a process for treating the skin, especially wrinkled skin, via the application of the described composition to the skin.
Abstract:
A meta-stable composition, a product including the meta-stable composition, and a method of protecting a keratinous substrate from UV radiation by applying the product are provided. The meta-stable cosmetic composition includes at least one water-in-oil emulsifier having a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) of less than 6, at least one non-ionic oil-in-water emulsifier having an HLB of greater than 9, at least one ionic surfactant, and at least one skin care active ingredient. The weight ratio of the at least one non-ionic oil-in-water emulsifier to the at least one water-in-oil emulsifier is about 0.02 to about 2.0. The meta-stable cosmetic composition converts from an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion to a water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion upon rubbing.
Abstract:
The invention relates to nail composition sets comprising at least one primer, at least one bonding composition, and at least one color coat, wherein the primer comprises water and at least one adhesive compound and preferably further comprises at least one water-soluble film forming agent and/or at least one plasticizer.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods of making up and/or enhancing the appearance of a keratinous substrate comprising (1) forming a film on the keratinous substrate by applying to said keratinous substrate (a) a first cosmetic composition comprising at least one polyvinyl alcohol-styrylpyridinium polymer and (b) a second cosmetic composition comprising at least one complexing agent, and (2) exposing the film to radiation chosen from UV and visible light radiation.
Abstract:
Individualized porous particles having a volume-average diameter of less than or equal to 10 μm and a specific surface area of greater than or equal to 1 m2/g, and that include at least one cosmetically or pharmaceutically active compound present at least inside the particles.
Abstract:
A photoprotective composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, that includes particles of photonic material having a polymeric multilayer interference structure, where at least two layers of the structure contain an amphiphilic polymer.
