The invention relates to a composition, especially a cosmetic composition, comprising at least one acrylic thickener and at least one oil, as well as to methods of using such compositions.

Cosmetic compositions containing acrylic thickener

The present invention relates to a nail polish composition comprising: at least one high gloss film forming agent chosen from a styrene maleic anhydride copolymer; at least one co-film forming agent chosen from an epoxy resin; at least one reactive agent chosen from a combination of a polyalkyleneamine and a polyurethane, at least one polyalkyleneamine, and at least one alkoxysilane comprising at least one solubilizing functional group; at least one solvent chosen from at least one volatile solvent and water; optionally, at least one plasticizer; and optionally, at least one colorant, wherein the composition does not require use of nitrocellulose and can be used to makeup or protect nails.

Nitrocellulose-free nail polish compositions

The present invention relates to a nail polish composition, comprising at least one high gloss film forming agent chosen from an esterified styrene maleic anhydride copolymer, a non-esterified styrene maleic anhydride copolymer and mixtures thereof, at least one co-film forming agent chosen from an epoxy resin, optionally, at least one plasticizer, at least one solvent, and optionally, at least one colorant, wherein the composition does not require use of nitrocellulose and can be used to makeup or protect nails. Such compositions impart high gloss, good adhesion and long wear properties.

The present invention is directed to a transfer resistant and long wear cosmetic composition having a unique gel-like texture with good pickup, payoff, and spreadability properties, as well as a silky smooth feel containing: (a) at least one polyamine; (b) at least one oil-soluble polar modified polymer; (c) water; (d) at least one volatile solvent; (e) at least one non-volatile solvent; (f) at least one water soluble surfactant; (f) at least one colorant; and (g) at least one oil absorbing powder.

Transfer-resistant and long wear foundation in emulsion form containing oil absorbing powders

The invention relates to a physiologically acceptable composition, especially a cosmetic composition, comprising at least one polar modified polymer, as well as to methods of using such compositions.

Composition containing a polar modified polymer

Disclosed are non-aqueous carrier compositions capable of forming a gel structure, having a low molecular mass N-acyl glutamic acid diamide having a straight-chain alkyl group, a low molecular mass N-acyl glutamic acid diamide having a branched-chain alkyl group, at least one gel-promoting solvent, and at least one high molecular mass block copolymer having at least one hard segment and at least one soft segment, and at least one solvent capable of solubilizing the at least one hard segment and/or the at least one soft segment of the block copolymer, at least one oil-soluble polar modified polymer; and at least one solvent capable of solubilizing the at least one oil-soluble polar modified polymer, and optionally at least one active ingredient, wherein the composition has a hardness value ranging from about 30 to about 300 gf, a melting point of about 50&#xb0; C. or higher, and does not require use of wax as a structuring agent. Methods of making and using the compositions are also disclosed.

Structured non-aqueous gel-form carrier composition

Disclosed are cosmetic compositions and methods for making up keratinous tissue using the compositions, as well as methods of making the compositions. The compositions contain a photoluminescent polymer (PLP) which is an oligomeric polyester synthesized from a multifunctional monomer and a diol, and which has grafted thereon an amino acid or an amino acid derivative. The compositions achieve a colorizing and/or UV-protectant effect when applied to keratinous tissue.

Use of photoluminescent polymers in cosmetic products

The invention relates to a composition, especially a cosmetic composition, comprising at least one acrylic thickener having a high viscosity and a low solids content, as well as to methods of using such compositions.

Compositions containing acrylic thickener

The present invention is directed to a composition containing: (a) at least one propylsilsesquioxane wax substituted with alkyl units having at least 30 carbons; (b) a liquid fatty phase; (c) at least one emulsifier chosen from an emulsifying silicone elastomer; (d) at least one colorant; (e) water; and (f) optionally, at least one film forming resin chosen from a propylphenylsilsesquioxane resin having a molecular weight of from about 2,000 to about 30,000 and comprising at least about 70 mole % propyl siloxy units, based on the total mole % siloxy units of the resin, and at most about 30 mole % phenyl siloxy units, based on the total mole % siloxy units of the resin, and a silicone acrylate copolymer resin.
