Abstract:
The present invention relates to a combination of: (a) at least one particle having a wet point for oil being at least 100 ml/100 g, preferably at least 150 ml/100 g, and more preferably at least 200 ml/100 g, and a wet point for water being at least 100 ml/100 g, preferably at least 200 ml/100 g, and more preferably at least 300 ml/100 g; and (b) at least one lipophilic antioxidant agent. The present invention also relates to a method or use characterized by using the above combination. The present invention can reduce or control more effectively, preferably synergistically, the peroxidation of unsaturated lipids, preferably sebum, compared to the single use of the lipophilic antioxidant agent.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising a) at least one hydrophobically modified inulin, b) at least one polyether modified silicone and c) at least one UV filter, in which the hydrophobically modified inulin is present in a content ranging from about 0.01 to about 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition. The composition of the present invention has good skin affinity and homogeneous spreading, and maintains further good watery skin sensation.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition in the form of an O/W emulsion, comprising: (a) at least one UV filter; (b) at least one inulin or inulin modified with hydrophobic chains; (c) at least one sugar ether surfactant; (d) at least one hydrophilic acrylic polymer; and (e) water. The composition according to the present invention can provide a homogeneous film when being applied, and good cosmetic effects such as superior UV filtering effects, while providing a watery fresh feeling during the application and a non-sticky feeling after the application.
Abstract:
The present invention concerns composite particles comprising: i) a matrix containing at least one inorganic and/or at least one organic material and ii) at least one inorganic UV filter which is doped by at least one transition metal. The present invention also concerns a composition containing, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least the composite particles as defined above.The invention also concerns a cosmetic method for caring for and/or making up a keratinous substance, which consists in applying, to the surface of said keratinous substance, at least one composition as defined above and more particularly a cosmetic method for: a) limiting the darkening of the skin and improving the colour and uniformity of the complexion, and b) treating aging of keratinous substances.
