  • Method and compositions for improving appearance of skin
    Patent number: 9278056
    Abstract: A method for improving the appearance of skin depth, dimensionality or undertones by topically applying a composition containing composite particulates made by (a) solvating a clear or translucent thermoplastic material with solvent in an amount sufficient to swell the material; (b) combining the solvated mixture of (a) with one or more colorants; (c) removing the solvent to form a composite particulate, (d) formulating the composite particulate into a topical cosmetic composition for application to skin.

  • Compositions Comprising Pigment Particles Entrapped In Collapsed Polymeric Microspheres, And Methods Of Making The Same
    Publication number: 20120015010
    Abstract: Topical compositions containing pigment particles entrapped in microspheres are provided. Each of the microspheres contains a collapsed polymeric shell that has entrapped therein one or more pigment particles. The microsphere-entrapped pigment particles are characterized by enhanced color intensity, improved stability, and better dispersibility, which can readily be used either alone or in combination with other skin active ingredients to form better colored cosmetics.
