A cosmetic or dermatological composition containing, as an active substance, at least one natural or recombinant spider silk protein, or an analog of such a protein. The composition may be in the form of hair products, skincare products, make-up products or antisun products.

Cosmetic or dermatological composition contacting at least one natural or recombinant spider silk or an analog

Colored cosmetic composition containing at least one particulate filler and at least one colorant, in which at least part of the fillers of the composition is coated with a polymer combined with at least one colorant.

Colored cosmetic composition

Coloured cosmetic composition containing at least one particulate filler and at least one colorant, in which at least part of the fillers of the composition is coated with a polymer combined with at least one colorant.

This composition, containing in the conventional manner at least one wax, at least one thickening agent and at least one volatile organic solvent and optionally other conventional ingredients (fillers, pigments, vitamins, amino acids, etc.) is characterized in that it contains an aqueous solution of at least one water-soluble film forming polymer (keratin, chitin, chitosan or cellulose derivatives, acrylic polymers, polyvinyl pyrrolidones and vinylic copolymers, natural polymers, ethylene polymers and oxy-ethylenated silicones, etc.). The originality of this mascara consists in obtaining an increase in the water resistance of the product by introducing an aqueous solution of water-soluble substances into an anhydrous formula. The system does not contain an emulsifying agent, but nevertheless allows for a stable composition containing approximately 10% of water in a completely hydrophobic medium.

Waterproof composition for covering the eyelashes, and process for the

The present invention relates to the use of dihydroxybenzoic acid in or for the manufacture of a cosmetic or dermatological composition to stimulate the process of epidermal renewal. The invention also relates to a non-therapeutic skin treatment process for the treatment of wrinkles and/or fine lines and/or blemishes of the skin.

Use of benzoic acid derivatives to stimulate the process of epidermal

A cosmetic composition contains a dispersion, in a fatty binder, of a particulate filler composed of solid particles of at least one material compatible with application to the skin. The particulate filler contains at least 50 wt. %, or at least 75 vol. % relative to the total particulate filler, of spherical or spheroidal particles 0.5 to 50 .mu. in size. The particulate filler has an oil uptake such that its concentration by volume C*, when the volume of binder is equal to that of the oil uptake (measured on the nonvolatile fraction of the binder), is between 3 and 90%. The concentration by volume of the particulate filler in the dispersion, measured on the nonvolatile fraction of the binder, namely without taking into account any volatile oils that may be present in the fatty binder, is at least equal to C* and preferably greater than C*. This composition allows skin defects (color differences and micro reliefs) to be blurred while leaving a translucent layer on said skin.

Cosmetic composition capable of blurring skin defects

The wax-based mascaras containing keratin hydrolysates having a molecular weight greater than 50,000 have improved properties for coating eyelashes, of stability and eyelash lengthening.

Eyelash make-up composition based on wax and keratin hydrolysate

These wax-based mascara compositions have cosmetic properties which are improved by the presence, in combination with the waxes, of keratin sulphonic derivatives of formula ##STR1## in which formula K denotes the keratin residue, and M.sup.+ denotes H.sup.+, a cation derived from an alkali metal or magnesium, or N.sup.+ (R).sub.4, the radicals R being identical or different and each denoting H or an alkyl or hydroxyalkyl radical containing at most 4 carbon atoms, the unit A denoting from 3 to 15% by weight of the keratin derivative and being the only modified unit in the protein chain of the keratin. The derivatives of formula (I) act both as a cohesion agent and a thickener, enabling a sheathing to be produced on the eyelashes with immediate adhesion and with a flexible film-forming effect.

A noncompacted powder composition for make-up or for the care of the body and face contains hollow microspheres made of a synthetic thermoplastic material and having a specific mass less than 0.1 g/cm.sup.3.

Noncompacted make-up powder or powder for the care of the body and face

The invention relates to cosmetic compositions comprising at least one wax having a melting point of 60.degree. to 110.degree. C., at least one cationic polymer having a molecular weight of between 1,000 and 3,000,000, at least one anionic polymer and ingredients normally used in cosmetics.

Composition based on cationic polymers, anionic polymers and waxes for

A cosmetic make-up composition comprises, in combination, cosmetic make-up components and, as a binding agent therefor, an intimate mixture of from 5 to 95 percent by weight of said mixture of finely divided silica and about 95 to about 5 percent by weight of said mixture of finely divided polyethylene fibers having a fibrillar structure.
