Abstract
A mascara composition comprises: water, and emulsified and dispersed in the water, a protein component, a vegetable wax component, and a vitamin component. The protein component, the vegetable wax component, and the vitamin component are each present in cosmetically effective quantities. The protein component can be protein derived from silk powder and keratin, the vegetable wax component can be rose wax and jasmine wax, and the vitamin component can be ascorbyl palmitate, tocopheryl acetate, and panthenol. The composition can further comprise an antioxidant component, a preservative component, an emulsifier component, a solvent component, a thickener component, a hydrophobic/waxy component, and at least one colorant. The mascara composition of the present invention is effective in significantly lengthening and thickening the eyelashes of the wearer and is significantly long lasting, water resistant, and safe for wearers. It further improves significantly the condition of lashes, making them softer, smoother, and more pliable. The formula is also soothing, calming, and anti-irritant.
