Abstract: The present invention is a non-aqueous cosmetic gel composition of from about 47% to 62% by weight anhydrous gel, from about 17% to about 32% by weight polymer, from about 8% to about 22% by weight ester, and from about 0.001% to about 15% by weight gelling agent wherein the inclusion of the gelling agents provides a means for delivery of the emollients.

Abstract: Gelled ester compositions are provided. The gelled esters are obtained by mixing a suitable ester with one or more triblock copolymers, star polymers, radial polymers, multi-block copolymers, or mixtures thereof. Optionally, one or more diblock copolymers can be used in forming the gel compositions. In addition to gelled esters, gelled alcohols, gelled ethers, and gelled naturally-occurring fats and oils also are obtained by using one or more diblock copolymers, triblock copolymers, star polymers, radial polymers, multi-block copolymers, or mixtures thereof as a gelling agent. Butyl rubbers and alkyl galactomannan also can be used as a gelling agent. The gel compositions may be used to suspend various solids and/or liquids.
