A polymerizable composition which can be cured into a cured product exhibiting a low Abbe's number and is suitable for producing a molded article having a further high transparency. A polymerizable composition including 100 parts by mass of a reactive silsesquioxane compound containing a phenanthrene ring (a), and 10 to 500 parts by mass of a polymerizable compound having at least one polymerizable double bond (b), a cured product of the polymerizable composition, and a method for producing a molded article by using of the polymerizable composition.

A water swellable cross-linked elastomer and method of preparation is provided. The elastomer can advantageously be included in skin treatment compositions. Swellable elastomers in accordance with the invention are particularly well suited for inclusion in skin tightening cosmetic products. The elastomers can be formulated to form a film. When applied to skin, an elastomer in accordance with preferred embodiments of the invention can adhere to the skin and shrink as it dries. This can provide a skin tightening, lifting and wrinkle smoothening effect upon drying. This effect can temporarily mask the appearance of wrinkles.
