The present invention relates to a cosmetic make-up composition for the skin in the form of a water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion comprising in a physiological acceptable medium at least: a) an aqueous polyurethane dispersion, b) a hydrophobic film-forming polymer, c) one or more volatile hydrocarbon oils, preferably in an amount of at least 10 wt % relative to the total weight of the composition, d) one or more absorbent fillers having an oil uptake greater than or equal to 30 ml/100 g and e) pigments.

New surfactants with emulsifying, bio and eco-compatible properties, having long-chain aliphatic amides, obtained by a green method, deriving from amino acids, fatty acids and/or oils and/or butters, treated with microwave irradiation are provided.

Providing a cosmetic having a smooth after-feel even if the cosmetic contains a high proportion of oil. A cosmetic includes (A) a starch powder, and as oils, (B) a polar oil and (C) a volatile oil. The ratio of (C) the volatile oil to (B) the polar oil being 0.5 or higher.

Antiperspirant and/or deodorant compositions and methods for the same are provided. The compositions may include an antiperspirant active or a deodorant active, water, and a preservative system. The antiperspirant active may include aluminum, and the preservative system may include a biodegradable amino carboxylate. The methods may include substituting or replacing a conventional chelant, such as EDTA, with a biodegradable chelant, such as HIDS. The methods may also include applying one of the compositions to an axillary area of a person.

Disclosed is a composite for forming a coacervate interfacial film. The composite for forming the coacervate interfacial film contains a cationic hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle structure containing a hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle and a cationic surfactant coupled to a surface of the hectorite nanoplate-shaped particle, and an anionic cellulose nanofibril containing an anionic functional group in at least a portion thereof, in which the composite may form the coacervate interfacial film at an interface of an oil phase and a water phase through electrostatic interaction between the cationic surfactant and the anionic functional group.

Disclosed is a self-invertible inverse latex including, as an inverting agent, surfactant species of the polyglycerol ester family; the use thereof as a thickening and/or emulsifying and/or stabilising agent for a cosmetic, dermopharmaceutical or pharmaceutical topical composition, and cosmetic, dermopharmaceutical or pharmaceutical topical compositions containing same. Also disclosed is a new surfactant composition containing polyglycerol esters.

The present disclosure relates generally to compositions that include at least two or at least three gelling agents, at least one emollient, and at least 15% water by mass relative to the total mass.

A foaming antiperspirant or deodorant composition comprising: a. an oil and water emulsion; b. a first blowing agent with at least 0.1% water solubility at 20° C.; and c. a second blowing agent with a water solubility of at most 0.01% at 20° C.

A foaming antiperspirant or deodorant composition comprising: a. an oil in water emulsion comprising: i. a first oil phase comprising one or more emollients; ii. a second oil phase comprising one or more emollients; wherein the second oil phase emollients have at most 5% solubility in the first oil phase emollients; iii. an antiperspirant or deodorant active; iv. one or more nonionic emulsifier; and v. a fragrance; and b. at most about 15%, by weight of the composition, of a blowing agent.

A volatile oil composition includes a vehicle and a silicone elastomer, wherein the vehicle is a volatile oily composition of (a) from 50 to 100% by weight of a mixture of linear paraffins including (i) 90 to 99% by weight of at least one linear paraffin selected from C.sub.8, C.sub.10, C.sub.12 paraffins and mixtures thereof, and (ii) 1 to 10% by weight of a C.sub.14 linear paraffin, and (b) from 0 to 50% by weight of at least one non-volatile oil. The composition may be used in cosmetic compositions such as for making up and/or caring for and/or protecting skin, lips, eyelashes and/or nails, and in antiperspirant/deodorant compositions.
