The invention is directed to a cosmetic composition which contains at least one poly-&#x3b1;-olefin produced by subjecting at least one primary alcohol to dehydrating polymerization at a temperature of 60&#xb0; C. to 340&#xb0; C. in the presence of acidic alumino layer silicates. The primary alcohol is an alcohol from the group of unsaturated monofunctional alcohols, branched monofunctional alcohols and difunctional alcohols. The poly-&#x3b1;-olefin is a high-spreading oil component which imparts an almost instantaneous and relatively long-lasting feeling of smoothness to the skin and has good dermatological compatibility.

Poly-&#x3b1;-olefin-containing cosmetic composition

The disclosed invention relates to a cosmetic composition containing at least one branched oligo-&#x3b1;-olefin, characterized in that the side chains at one branch point at least are ethyl, propyl or longer branched alkyl chains, the branched oligo-&#x3b1;-olefin being obtainable by oligomerization of

Cosmetic oligo-&#x3b1;-olefin containing compound

The present invention relates to a crosslinked glycerol or oligoglycerol ester which can be obtained by crosslinking a non-crosslinked glycerol or oligoglycerol ester which can be obtained by reacting an

Unsaturated coconut and/or palm nut fatty alcohols having an iodine number in the range from 65 to 85, which essentially comprise unsaturated fatty alcohols and mixtures of saturated fatty alcohols of the formula (I):ROH &#x2003;&#x2003;(I)in which Ris a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched alkyl radical having 12 to 20 carbon atoms, obtainable by fractionating coconut and/or palm nut fatty acid methyl esters to obtain a fraction containing predominantly C-Cportions, fractionating the C-Cfatty acid methyl ester fraction into a predominantly saturated distillate and a predominantly unsaturated bottom product, and hydrogenating the bottom product with retention of the double bonds to give the corresponding alcohols; are disclosed.

Process for making unsaturated coconut and/or palm nut fatty alcohols

Process for producing poly-&#x3b1;-olefins are described wherein the processes comprise: (a) providing a primary alcohol; and (b) polymerizing the primary alcohol in the presence of an acidic alumino layer silicate to form a poly-&#x3b1;-olefin. Water formed during the polymerization can be removed, optionally during the polymerization, and subsequent hydrogenation may be performed.
