The invention relates to a composition containing at least one mixed silicate, at least one polysaccharide and at least one crosslinked poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulphonic acid) polymer which is at least 90% neutralized, having use in the cosmetic field as a tightening agent, in particular for tightening the skin and smoothing it so as to immediately attenuate the wrinkles and/or fine lines on the skin.

Composition containing a mixed silicate, a polysaccharide and crosslinked poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-propane-sulphonic acid) polymer

Cosmetic composition in anhydrous form comprising a dispersion of a surface-stabilized polymer particles

Cosmetic composition comprising particles of melamine-formaldehyde or urea-formaldehyde resin and its uses. The present application relates to a composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one oily phase and particles of melamine-formaldehyde or urea-formaldehyde resin, to the use of the said composition, especially as a cosmetic composition for caring for and/or making up the skin, in particular for softening defects of the relief of the skin, such as microrelief features, wrinkles or pores, while conferring a natural appearance on the skin, and to its use in treating greasy skin. The particles advantageously have a number-average size ranging from approximately 0.1 to 20 &mgr;m. The composition of the invention can be anhydrous or can be provided in the form of a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion. The invention also relates to the use of particles of melamine-formaldehyde or urea-formaldehyde resin as mattifying agent in a cosmetic composition.
