The invention relates to the field of cosmetics, in particular oil-in-water emulsions or water-in-oil emulsions, comprising a sensory agent having a “cushion” and a softness effect. The invention relates to the non-therapeutic cosmetic use of a carboxyalkylated granular starch in an oil-in-water or a water-in-oil emulsion as a sensory agent having a “cushion” effect and a softness effect. A cream prepared according to this use has a whipped cream texture.

The present invention provides an interference pigment that develops interference colors even on light-colored bases. An interference pigment 1 of the present invention includes: a flaky inorganic substrate 10; a transparent metal layer 20 that coats the inorganic substrate 10; and a metal oxide layer 30 that coats the metal layer 20.

The invention relates to biobased waxy esters which in particular in the form of wax dispersions bring about cloudiness and/or pearlescence in cosmetic cleansers. The invention further provides the use of the waxes in cosmetic compositions, the production thereof and the cosmetic compositions themselves.

Disclosed are compositions which are suitable for use as sunscreen lotions and creams. The compositions have organic filters and special effects pigments, providing both sun protection and aesthetically pleasing visual effects to the skin. The compositions may also be formulated to form high oil load emulsions that exhibit both a quick-break effect, as well as physical stability at different temperature levels. Methods of manufacturing and using such compositions are also disclosed.
