An anhydrous oil foam composition containing: (a) at least one liquid oil; (b) at least one surfactant chosen from polyglyceryl-2 laurate; (c) at least one UV filter; and (d) a propellant, wherein the composition is waterless and is capable of imparting UV protection onto a target keratinous substrate.

Cosmetic oil mousse composition

Pantethinesulphonic acid and/or a salt thereof as a free-radical scavenger. Prevent or combat the harmful effects of UV and/or pollution on the skin, loss of firmness and/or elasticity of the skin, etc.

Pantethinesulphonic acid and/or a salt thereof as a free-radical scavenger

The invention relates to an article containing (A) a water-insoluble substrate and (B) containing an aqueous phase and N-(3-chloroallyl)hexaminium chloride. According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the composition also contains at least one C -C alkyl para hydroxybenzoate and/or at least one ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid salt. The article may especially constitute a wipe for cleansing and/or removing makeup from the facial and/or body skin, and also for removing makeup from the eyes. The wipe may be in the form of a moist or dry wipe.

Cosmetic and dermatological article comprising N-(3-chloroallyl) hexaminium chloride

The hydrophilic penetration agents customarily used for the transcutaneous penetration of active ingredients are, surprisingly, found to improve the penetration of antifungal agents through the nails. A corresponding dermatological composition contains at least one antifungal agent chosen, in particular, from among those of the allylamine family, such as terbinafine-HCl and naftifine-HCl; at least one hydrophilic penetration agent chosen, in particular, from among the glycols, glycol monoethers, glycol diethers, dimethylsulphoxide, caprolactam, dimethylisosorbide, isopropylidene glycerol, dimethylimidazolidinone, ethyl lactate, the polyoxyethylenated C -C glycerides, polyethylene glycol 20 glyceryl laurate and dimethylacetamide; and a water-alcohol solvent medium which dissolves the said antifungal agent(s) and in which the said penetration agent(s) is (or are) at least partially miscible.

Use of hydrophilic penetration agents in dermatological compositions for the treatment of onychomycoses, and corresponding compositions

Cosmetic or dermatological composition containing at least one extract of mulberry, at least one extract of skullcap and at least one salicylic acid derivative

A cosmetic and/or dermatological composition, which contains (i) salicylic acid and/or at least one salicylic acid derivative, (ii) at least one ester of a fatty acid and glucose and/or alkylglucose, and (iii) at least one oxyethylenated ether of a fatty acid ester of glucose and/or alkylglucose. The composition allows a gentle treatment of the human skin. The composition is useful for treating the effects of skin ageing, and treating skin disorders such as acne.

Cosmetic and/or dermatological composition containing salicyclic acid derivative and its use

Self-foaming cream

The hydrophilic penetration agents customarily used for the transcutaneous penetration of active ingredients are, surprisingly, found to improve the penetration of antifungal agents through the nails. A corresponding dermatological composition contains at least one antifungal agent chosen, in particular, from among those of the allylamine family, such as terbinafine-HCl and naftifine-HCl; at least one hydrophilic penetration agent chosen, in particular, from among the glycols, glycol monoethers, glycol diethers, dimethylsulphoxide, caprolactam, dimethylisosorbide, isopropylidene glycerol, dimethylimidazolidinone, ethyl lactate, the polyoxyethylenated C.sub.8 -C.sub.10 glycerides, polyethylene glycol 20 glyceryl laurate and dimethylacetamide; and a water-alcohol solvent medium which dissolves the said antifungal agent(s) and in which the said penetration agent(s) is (or are) at least partially miscible.

Use of hydrophilic penetration agents in dermatological compositions for

A self-foaming composition in the form of a post-foaming, pressurizable oil-in-water emulsion comprising:

An emulsion of an oily phase in a surfactant-free gelled aqueous phase containing expanded hollow thermoplastic particles of acrylonitrile polymer or copolymer. The particles ensure the dispersion of the oily phase in the gelled aqueous phase and are preferably particles of expanded copolymers of acrylonitrile and acrylic or styrene-based monomers and/or vinylidene chloride. The emulsion obtained can be employed, for example, for the care or cleansing of skin and/or hair or for use in a skin make-up. It can also form a dermatological product.

Surfactant-free oil-in-water emulsion stabilized by hollow thermoplastic

The invention relates to an emulsion containing an aqueous phase dispersed in an oily phase using a mixed ester of isostearic acid and succinic acid with glycerol, and at least 10% by weight of polyol relative to the total weight of the emulsion. This emulsion is intended in particular for the cosmetic and/or dermatological treatment of hands.

Water-in-oil emulsion containing polyols and its use in cosmetology

A cosmetic or dermatological composition has an aqueous phase and a separate oily phase in a ratio of between 30:70 and 60:40, at least one of the phases containing a surfactant, the aqueous phase containing a demixing agent in a proportion of between 0.025% and 5% by weight, the demixing agent having the formula: ##STR1## in which: R represents a saturated linear alkyl radical having from 12 to 16 carbon atoms. The composition may be used for any cosmetic or dermatological purpose, particularly for removing makeup from the eyes or face, as a sun lotion or as a lotion for cleansing or care of the skin.

Two-phase cosmetic or dermatological composition

An antifungus composition in dry spray form contains in combination at least one antifungus agent of the family of allylamines, a noncyclized silicone polymer, a mineral or organic charge and a gas propellant. This composition is useful in the treatment of mycoses.

Antifungus composition in dry spray form

The process consists in dissolving a corticosteroid in the lipid phase of nonionic amphiphilic lipid vesicles consisting of one or more lipid lamellae. Composition for carrying out the above process, in which the vesicles are dispersed in an aqueous phase D, have an average diameter of between 10 and 5,000 nm and contain as corticosteroids 17- and/or 21-mono- or -diesters of hydrocortisone, cortisone, prednisone, prednisolone or 6-methylprednisolone, the corticosteroids representing 0.5 to 2.5% by weight of the total lipids of the lamellae.
