Abstract
A cosmetic or dermatological film-forming composition comprising a liquid fatty phase, including at least one volatile hydrocarbon oil, and a film-forming polymer in said liquid fatty phase, characterized in that it comprises at least one polyolefin wax resulting from the polymerization of alpha-olefins having at least 10 carbon atoms, said wax having a melting point ranging from 50 to 80° C. The invention includes the use of such a composition, especially for producing a water-resistant film exhibiting good hold with regard to rubbing, to tears, to perspiration or to sebum.
