Abstract:
Methods for making hollow silica particle are disclosed, said particles made from a composition comprising a silicon-containing compound selected from the group consisting of tetraalkoxysilanes, trialkyloxysilanes and derivatives thereof, dialkoxysilanes and derivatives thereof, alkoxysilanes and derivatives thereof, silicone oligomers, oligomeric silsesquioxanes and silicone polymers distributed over a polymer template core that is eliminated from the particle. The particles of the present invention have a substantially uniform particle size and exhibit low permeability to liquids.
Abstract:
A cosmetic composition for use on hair, skin or nails, containing a safe and effective amount of boron nitride powder has been found which improves the appearance of skin by blurring lines and wrinkles while at the same time providing coverage of age spots, blemishes and other discolorations.
