Abstract:
An emulsion of an oily phase in a surfactant-free gelled aqueous phase containing expanded hollow thermoplastic particles of acrylonitrile polymer or copolymer. The particles ensure the dispersion of the oily phase in the gelled aqueous phase and are preferably particles of expanded copolymers of acrylonitrile and acrylic or styrene-based monomers and/or vinylidene chloride. The emulsion obtained can be employed, for example, for the care or cleansing of skin and/or hair or for use in a skin make-up. It can also form a dermatological product.
Abstract:
A cosmetic composition for skin consisting of an anhydrous powder and mainly including a solid particulate phase mixed with a fatty binder containing a silicone mixture which consists of (a) at least one silicone oil, (b) at least one silicone wax, (c) at least one silicone resin, (d) optionally at least one silicon gum, and (e) optionally at least one phenyldimethicone; wherein components (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) are present in the binder in concentrations of 12-98.9%, 1-60%, 0.1-25%, 0-3% and 0-20% by weight respectively in relation to the overall weight of the silicone mixture. The composition may be used as face make-up, as eye shadow or as a make-up foundation or powder.
