Abstract
Provided in various embodiments are compositions for topical application to the skin of a mammal, methods for their preparation, and their uses in skin care compositions to reduce adhesion of unwanted particles to the skin. When a hydrophobic non-volatile solvent and a hydrophobic non-volatile high melting point material with a melting point in the range of 60° C. and 100° C. are combined with a hydrophobic volatile solvent which compatibilizes the hydrophobic non-volatile solvent and the hydrophobic non-volatile high melting point material and the hydrophobic non-volatile high melting point material is selected to be at least partially incompatible with the hydrophobic non-volatile solvent in the absence of the hydrophobic volatile solvent, the resulting composition may be applied to skin to reduce adhesion of unwanted particles to the skin.
