A cosmetic hair care composition comprises a derivative of waxes obtained by the reaction of simultaneous transesterification of a mixture comprising jojoba wax and sunflower wax, in the presence of polyglycerol-3.

Haircare composition comprising modified vegetable waxes

The present invention relates to a composition for topical application, comprising at least one electrolyte and at least one amphiphilic polymer including at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer containing a sulphonic group, in free form or partially or totally neutralized form and comprising at least one hydrophobic portion. The invention also relates to the uses of the said composition, especially in cosmetics, to treat and care for human skin, the scalp, mucous membranes, the nails and keratin fibres.

Stable composition with high electrolyte content containing an amphiphilic polymer

A composition containing an aqueous phase dispersed in an oily phase, at least one emulsifier with an HLB value ranging from 1 to 8, at least one organic powder, and, in the oily phase at least one semicrystalline polymer with organic structure that is solid at room temperature and that has a melting point of less than 70&#xb0; C., the said polymer comprising a) a polymer skeleton and b) at least one crystallizable organic side chain and/or at least one crystallizable organic sequence forming part of the said polymer skeleton, the polymer having a number-average molecular weight of greater than 2,000. This composition can especially constitute a cosmetic cream, having a very pleasant texture when applied to the skin, or a stick, especially a makeup-removing stick.

Composition containing a semicrystalline polymer, uses thereof, and method for making

A composition containing, in a physiologically acceptable medium, (1) at least one aqueous phase containing particles of a substantially linear block silicone copolymer, and (2) at least one polymer containing at least one monomer having an ethylenic unsaturation and a sulphonic group, and/or at least on organic powder.

Composition containing a silicone copolymer and an AMPS-like polymer and/or organic powder

A composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion containing, in a physiologically acceptable medium, an oily phase dispersed in an aqueous phase, the aqueous phase containing particles of a noncrosslinked silicone copolymer and at least one amphiphilic surfactant capable of forming liquid crystals.

Composition in the form of an oil-in water emulsion containing a silicone copolymer and showing a liquid crystalline phase and uses thereof

A method in which a mould is coated with a reactive polymer, a liquid curable composition is filled into the mould and cured under conditions such that the reactive polymer becomes covalently bonded to the cured bulk mould material at the interface. The reactive polymer has zwitterionic groups to confer improved biocompatibility on the moulded product. The reactive group on the reactive polymer is conveniently an ethylenically unsaturated group. The curable composition is suitably a radical polymerisable ethylenically unsaturated monomer mixture or a platinum-curable liquid silicone composition.

Method for providing coated moulded polymeric articles

Stable photoprotective cosmetic emulsions, notably water-in-oil emulsions well suited for the UV-photoprotection of the skin, lips, mucous membranes and/or hair, contain at least one aqueous phase, at least one oily phase, an effective UV-photoprotecting amount of at least one coated or uncoated metal oxide UV-blocking agent and an effective stabilizing amount of at least one amphiphilic oligomer or polymer derived from a polyolefin which also comprises at least one polar moiety, formulated into a physiologically acceptable medium therefor.

Photoprotective cosmetic compositions comprising inorganic UV-blocking agents

Stable, topically applicable cosmetic/dermatological compositions, notably W/O emulsions, well suited for the UV-photoprotection of the skin, lips and/or the hair, and/or for the makeup of the skin and/or the lips, contain a thus effective amount of at least one mineral oxide having a hydrophobic coating thereon, e.g., coated particulates of an oxide of titanium and/or zinc, and, as a stabilizing agent therefor, a thus effective amount of at least one oxyalkylenated polydimethylsiloxane bearing at least one glycoside residue substituent, formulated into a physiologically acceptable medium therefor.
